Could derby drop out of the play offs? That would be spectacular even for them

 

[Ciderhead]

Quite possibly.

Good win for Preston, wasn't really expecting them to take 3 pts today. Hooge game on Tuesday, would be a good time to end their hoodoo over us. I'd take a point if offered tbh

 

[TomPNE94]

Big big game on Tuesday now. Maguire is back though so we’re going up.

 

[TomPNE94]

We’ve also got Fulham at home on Saturday

 

[Ciderhead]

Great stuff. We've got Burton away.

So we'll probably lose and you win

We were top at this point in 2015... to finish 8th. That was spectacular.

Sunderland and wolves next up. Win that, then beat wolves, and who knows how far away from them we will be. Wolves have a tricky game up at Leeds on Wednesday night.

I maintain, cardiff and villa autos

 

[Doriva17]

Wolves and Fulham autos.

If we did get in the play offs the one team I would 100% not want to play would be Fulham.

We have Birmingham and Barnsley next. Let's hope for 6 points

By the time we play u at villa park (il be there btw) we will be first and second.

Well one team you ain't playing is derby that's for sure

It's not over yet, that's for sure.

Wanna bet, £20 to charity of winners choice?

 

[villa loyal]

Wolves fans don't half make me laugh at the minute. It's truly gone to their head. Not on about the ones on here so much, if at all, but I think they are in for a big shock when they get promoted.

We won’t make the playoffs, we’re simply not good enough.

As Luke said, being 5 clear at the top at this point in 2015 and then missing out on the top six on the final day was “spectacular”.

Yeah but we drew that one game with Man City, I see no reason why that doesn't indicate us finishing at least 5th in the Prem next season. I mean what other is there to consider?

Having won the playoffs this year of course. I see no reason to doubt the certainty of the Cardiff seer.

The next Spurs, and you will definitely wipe Arsenal off the map.

What sort of shock? We're on course to win a 3rd promotion to them prem in the last 15 years. We know what the Premier League is all about. It's easy to mock us from afar, but those who watch us regularly (our fans) have seen us more than match full strength PL teams recently (Stoke, Southampton, Man City, Chelsea, Swansea and Liverpool fans can attest to this). We already have solid foundations for a squad, and something that will drastically improve when/if we go up. We know what we are, and with backing like Fosun the sky really is the limit for us.

But keep on mocking us, I for one am loving the ride.

I think you will find 7th place in the prem is the absolute ceiling for any club outside the top 6.

Try telling Leicester fans that...

Check Einstein out.
7th place is the best you can do if not in the top 6.
Well done.

Einstein wasn't a mathematician, he was a quantum physicist. But good effort though

 

[Benladdie3000]

They aren't top 6 anymore though???

 

[markwwfc1992]

No they won it, which completely nullifies your point that unfancied teams can push the top 6.

You could potentially struggle, and we as a club know all about false hopes with Lerner who simply pulled the plug on us, rightly, or wrongly. I disagree with the Cardiff lad, who said 7th is the ceiling. If you spend big, and spend correctly, then why not challenge the top 6? I could quite easily see you back in the championship in 2 or 3 years though. There is a proper rivalry developing between us, and I think it's great. It's not over yet.

Doesn't mean it will happen again
