s29wfc Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 (edited) Leeds actually play again before Ipswich's next game , could be a 4 point gap between them and Leeds before they next play. Let's hope Ipswich don't falter meaning they've a meaningless game against Huddersfield by the time they play them.

DSandersonOWL Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I do not go along with all of this hatred of Leeds Weeds as I remember their fantastic half-back line of Bremner-Charlton-Hunter and some very classy Scottish forwards including Johnny Giles, Peter Lorimer, Eddie Gray, and Joe Jordan.

Best outcome (I think) is if Hull win 2 and Ipswich beat Coventry. That will mean Hull are still within touching distance of Norwich and Ipswich will need 3 points on the final day for a chance of the autos... FFS I can see my hair getting greyer by the minute!

Let's hope Ipswich don't falter meaning they've a meaningless game against Huddersfield by the time they play them. This is why I didn't want L**ds to win tonight. If Ipswich only don't win either of their next 2 games away at Hull and Coventry and L**ds and Leicester win their next games, that could be the top 2 sorted before the last game. It needs to stay a 3 horse race going to the last day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, from a different perspective, we could do with either Coventry or Hull keeping the pressure on Norwich as Norwich play Birmingham last. Also Hull at Plymoth on the last day so need them still in it. Let's just beat The Baggies and Sunderland to keep it simple! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are back in the bottom 3, we're going to be relying on other results on the last day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s29wfc Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Ipswich need 2 pts from their next two games (away at Hull then away at Coventry) to take it to the last game against Huddersfield needing a win , that's providing Leeds beat QPR on Friday night. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanharper Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Oddly, despite losing 10 games, almost a quarter of their games played so far, Leicester can still achieve 100 points. For some perspective Burnley got 101 last season and only lost 3. Leicester have a habit of turning the draws into wins (or the win into a draw at Hillsborough!).

There’s lots of permutations still to play out isn’t there, despite being so few games remaining Even if the top two is sorted, there’s the potential that Leicester will want to win their last game at home to Blackburn to win the title. But knowing our luck, everything will be sorted before the last game and we will all be playing teams with nothing to “play for”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
