sheffield_dave Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Blackburn might have already had their wobble and will probably be thinking they can go on a bit of a run to seal it over the last 6 games. Still think all 4 places are up for grabs. Huddersfield have got Luton, QPR and Boro still to play. It actually wouldn't surprise me if Forest finished 3rd. They're 5 points off Huddersfield but with 3 games in hand and real quality. It's looking like a real scramble to get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sova Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Unfortunately, 5 of their last 7 games are at home. Not for the first time this season, they take on a play-off rival in terrible form tonight - QPR have taken 7 points from their last 10 games, and just 3 in their last 6.

Crazy to think they are only 3 points behind a playoff place with a game in hand with that run. We're they quite high up in the mix before? Or have the other teams in the run-in been just as poor?

Last weekend was the first time in a while where I remember em dropping a few places after a defeat. They normally tread water, or unbelievably once, go up a place after losing.

Even when they were 18th in early November, they were only 7 points off 6th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with all these home games pressure is on, even more so on Saturday against Bournemouth if they don't beat QPR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrev Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Talking to a QPR fan today at work and he was saying that they don’t travel at all well, doesn’t fancy their chances tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Boro and Forest just edge them out with their games in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorrallOwl17 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 they were rubbish, but like i've said previously, a few of the teams chasing play offs aren't that great themselves, Blackburn, QPR, Luton, not exactly big hitters or reliable teams for us to put our hopes on. I'd be more confident if it was Forest or potentially Boro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorrallOwl17 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 hope blades finish in playoffs, because whether they play forest over 2 legs or in the final, they'll lose either way. They're absolutely flying and Brum at home Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No certainties in the play offs. Exactly, look at Huddersfield (painful, I know). In the last four games they've played across two Play-off campaigns, not one of their players has scored a goal. Yet they've been promoted twice. And in the second one they'd finished the season with a negative goal difference. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffield_dave Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Can't understand anybody hoping they get in the play-offs. Our best hope of restoring any sort of correct balance in Sheffield football anytime soon rests on them NOT getting promoted this season. I want them to be out of the running ASAP, starting with by the time the league season finishes and they're 7th or lower. I'm counting the blessings that they made such a pigs ear of the PL at the second attempt, and then that Jokanovic was such a dud this season. I'm not wanting to tempt fate on the prospect of any play-off comedy. I just want them done ASAP. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ever the pessimist Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Just looked at their run in. They’ll make the playoffs. Only difficult game is Fulham on final day, and they’ll be on the beach by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
