Birmingham must be due a bit of luck against the top teams after the performances they put in against us and Burnley. I don't see Birmingham manager Gary Rowett letting his team roll over, they will put up a good fight, even if they aren't as good as Boro. Brum were unlucky against Burnley and...

Like the look of that, going into the last game certain of promotion, would like to think we could go for the win and become champions though! But hey, I'm not greedy...

But before that they hadn't won for 4, so it's a bit swings and roundabouts - 8 points to make up with 6 games to go would be a very tall order indeed.

You have Hull as runaway leaders going into the final game, is this the same Hull that are currently 9 points behind the current leaders Burnley. Exactly how many points does "runaway" make - how many points are Burnley going to drop to allow Hull to runaway? Let's make an assumption that...

This, with brass knobs on!

Wouldn't have thought so, I know I didn't. Nor did I calculate Boro to lose to Charlton and Rotherham

This. Spot on...

Still don't really see it, Burnley have to play Boro and BHA, both sides playing for automatic promotion. they also have to play Cardiff, Birmingham and Preston - all sides aiming to clinch a play-off spot. Plenty of potential for them to drop points from these games. That only leaves their...

Think we have a more than reasonable chance of beating Burnley - again, nothing to be scared of. Don't you just love a good old-fashioned six-pointer :)

I am not quite sure how you work out that Burnley have an easy run-in? If you take the current position of the opposition that each of the top 6 still have left to play then Burnley actually have the toughest run-in, followed by 'Boro, although 6 of 'Boro's remaining games are at home - Hull do...

Accepted Hull do have the easiest run-in on paper, but you would have thought that 'Boro would have a cast iron 4 points minimum from their recent games against Rotherham and Charlton and they got sweet FA. A lot more twists and turns before this beauty of a season is over...

After the latest results, I have us going into the last game with the teams on the following points:- Burnley - 91 Boro - 87 BHA - 86 Hull - 84 So we would need to go to Boro to get a win and clinch second place - simples!

And Burnley?

Margaret Thatcher. Winston Churchill etc...

So we will only get 16 more points from the next 36 yet our goal difference will go up! Doesn't make sense.

Oh so having one big name striker isn't always the best tactic then, maybe better to share the goals out and not have one player for the opposition to mark out of the game!

Love this!
