7pts in front now, Swindon could do with winning at least one of their next two.

Meh

Not confident.

 

[Big Bird]

Need 4 pts minimum from Dons and City.

Am I right in thinking that if we beat Bradford on Monday and Swindon beat Bristol on Tuesday (which I hope doesn't happen), it's in our own hands to win the title?!

Funny how things can change from the end of January

 

[Indian Dan]

Yep. Same for us

Certainly is. If that happens and we beat Bristol City we will be 2 behind with our game in hand.

 

[Destruction]

There's no way we will win on that pitch at Bradford.

The only time we look a proper promotion capable outfit is when we play it on the deck through Gallagher and Johnson. When we go to the long ball shite we are a shadow of the team and that's almost certainly how Grayson will set us up to play on Monday.

 

[SF_]

Agree about us needing to get it on the floor and play to be at our best but I fancy us at Bradford, if we nick a goal in the first half then i'd fancy us to lap it up if they go direct.

 

[Alex_BCFC]

Going to be very tight for the title. A win vs Swindon kills the promotion race for us.

 

[plops]

It'd be a huge turn up if brizzle don't win the league and pne aren't second. Whenever we have had layoffs due to internationals we have been wank afterwards. Still very happy mind as i had us as relegation fodder this year so everything is bonus territory.

Games in hand seldom transpose into maximums so personally i cant see beyond top two.......and grayson has previous with denying us as leeds boss as well.

Its written in the stars that we will lose again to a sofa at wembley

 

[Agombar stool]

I think the top 2 will stay as is if I'm honest.

I'd say that's out automatic promotion hopes dead and buried.

Time to re-group and start building some momentum for the play-offs.

 

[TomPNE94]

If we beat Bradford, I'll be cheering on Swindon on Tuesday. If we don't, I'll be cheering on Bristol City on Tuesday.

 

[LuSiVe]

Hey, leave everything the way it is and we can go MK again #secondHome

[Scumarmy.]

I will return to this page of the thread when we go above Swindon Town on Saturday and then at the end of the season when we finish 2nd. Ye of little faith.

Yo.

 

[SF_]

Couldn't give a fuck about Swindon's and MK Don's antics, they need more wins than us in the next 7 games and it won't happen.

Quote me, put me in your signature, write that shit down.

That would be 6 times this season...and we will probably finish losing 5 of the 6.

Agree with this! PNE are up!

Yet you are still worried about yourselves...

We just don't win leagues Tom. It's 60 years FFS!
Please excuse our scepticism but there isn't a City fan on here that can remember when we last finished first.

You've got it in the bag, 7 games left, even if you have a wobble, this league is too disgracefully abysmal for you to lose enough games for us to overtake you

Ask me again in 7 days mate. We can still cock this up! I don't think we will as the team have a strong ethic but, after 60 years, we wouldn't be surprised.

 

[JJH]

Promotion is done and dusted, and we can confirm that Tuesday, but my main concern is the title - with having to go to Deepdale, and their game in hand etc, they could quite easily nab it from us.

There's a simple solution to this. Don't lose at Deepdale.

 

[BCFC Jordan]

Please stop, Preston.

 

[hodge]

Being honest I reckon we will draw with both Swindon and Preston, Preston winning their game in hand will ensure a tight finish to the season.
