Didn't most of the Carlisle contingent spend most of pressure season telling anyone who'd listen that Nicky Adams and Devitt were the final pieces to the Curle master plan?

Adams lived up to his expectations but Devitt didn't. Such a shame.

Even though the top three aren't confirmed I believe the League will finish as it stands now.
1st Rovers
2nd Argyle
3rd Pompey
Best 3 teams to go up automatic!

I agree that over the season they are the best three teams, and in the order you have them. That said I am not yet 100 per cent sure that Pompey will be an automatic. If we beat them on Good Friday that could cause major ripples of nervousness on the south coast. Especially if other results go against them. If they wobble at home, as they have a few times this season, they could still be caught. Though mathmatically possible, I cannot see either of us being overtaken from anyone in the pack below Pompey.

I'm uncertain we will finish top but having supported Rovers for over 40 years it's made me an eternal pessimist ( I still think we can lose every game we have left and finish 4th) :ffs:

If you fancy giving us some points next week that would do nicely

HE said over the season and Carlisle were in the top 3 for most of it until just recently, so no Pompey have not been part of the best all season, only now.

Quite a few greens would like the karma of it happening at Pompey. But as I won't be there, would prefer home against Newport three days later, where I have even persuaded Mrs Mushroom to attend (her being a glory maid and all).

Doncaster fans not really excited about getting promoted, they are like meh it's only L2, we should really be in The Championship.

Well good fucking riddance we don't want big Billy bollocks clubs down here taking our excitements away, the same goes to Plymouth and Pompey. You've ruined this season, well done.

Well at least two of your away trips next year should be shorter.

Forgive me for potentially being ignorant, but what karma..?

I was wondering this too. The only thing I could come up with was maybe the way your fans mocked our Wembley performance when at HP this season. But even that was to be expected (and deserved) following that shambles.

So yup I'm stumped.

Maybe the 'irony' of winning promotion at Pompey after years of forecasts of your lot winning the league at a canter? That's all I got.

Ok, realistically how much chance do Stanley have of gatecrashing the top 7? Great little run they're on but 7 points off 7th with just the 6 games left is a tough ask right?

More points than games to go. They're out of it.

After 40 games:

Doncaster (obviously), Plymouth are both gone in my opinion.

3rd Portsmouth 71pts +28
------------------------------
4th Stevenage 65pts +13
5th Luton Town 63pts +20
6th Exeter City 62pts +17
7th Carlisle United 62pts 0
------------------------------
8th Blackpool 60pts +20
9th Mansfield Town 58pts +4
10th Wycombe Wanderers 58pts +2
11th Cambridge United 57pts +5
12th Colchester United 57pts +2

Going to go down to the wire.

If there's any karma/vengeance/revenge/justice/whatever involved I imagine you beating us in the playoffs would have something to do with it, if anything!
