That record is mostly after I stopped going to away games my time was from about 1968 to 2000.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
Is anybody still worried that we will not get automatic promotion?

What has that got to do with us doing well there recently and then losing this season which was the point in the first place?

Wolves were our go-to team when we were last in the top flight - they were usually worth 6 points a season to us back then (4 points before it went to 3 points for a win). They got relegated in 1982, and without their six points in 82-83 it was curtains for us too!

That is what I am basing my hopes on as opposed to recent history because as has happened this season we have gone against the recent records at Sheff Wed and QPR.

Huddersfield seem genuinely worried that they could still miss out on the play-offs, so there's no doubt they'll be going for every game. Whether they've got anything left in the tank is less certain, and without the two Chelsea loanees - both injured - they're not the threat they looked against us.
If they can get the points they'll need to overtake us, then they'll richly deserve automatic promotion. And if we fail to get the points we need to stop them, then we deserve nothing.

Stupid IDIOT
If we do blow it from here we will be needing at least half a team and a new manager as heads will ROLL from top to bottom at the club

I, as all fans, normally go through the wringer at this time of the season in terms of nerves and stress. Since last weekend though, I feel as calm as anything. What a lovely situation to be in. It could have been so tense right up to the away game at Villa. Like last season away at Middlesborough which quite frankly was pretty bloody draining. We deserve it as a fan base and club after many many years of struggle and strife
Hopefully the first head to roll would be the author of the ridiculous announcement about keeping off the pitch...

I am confident (AT LAST) because I think we will AT LEAST win one and draw one of our remaining 5 games and I see Huddersfield dropping at least 2 points, probably more.
Huddersfield's result v Burton was an absolute shocker for them, I've felt it since then.

No.
Hudd and Newc losing last weekend, after our amazing nine points, turned 75% confidence into 99.99%.
Even if we slip in some games, no way will our rivals win all their games.

Jim, how long have I known you? Nearly 20 years. Always a measured and sensible bloke. And now you have turned into a pitch invading chav numpty. I am frankly appalled and saddened. And appalled.

Don't wait for me!
I have 100% confidence that even if we fall flat on our face for 5 games in a row we'd still be promoted.

No we haven't.
As I have stated before, you have to go back over 40 years to find the last time we entered New Year in the promotion positions and failed to go up.

I'm obviously eager for us to absolutely seal the deal as soon as possible, as all the time it's not mathematically certain, I feel like we can't allow ourselves to get carried away.
Then I think to myself: if we were in Huddersfield's position looking up, we'd be thinking there was no chance of Brighton slipping up, or of making up that points difference in the games left over.
