After today's fantastic result, only 3 teams can catch us. Great effort. Now the final push!

Yup and one of those teams could be Leicester, who play on Friday night. If they fail to win, a point at Leeds will be enough to see us there.

If Leicester fail to win we're assured a spot as forest and Leicester meet on the last game of the season. I think.

Nah because if Leicester win at Forest then that would give them 69 points and a better goal difference. We'd still need a point (or Bolton failing to win)

Ah so if they lose we're there?
No, because both Bolton and Forest can still overtake us (and Palace obviously).

Regardless of results, only one of Forest/Leicester can overtake us. And Bolton can. If Bolton lose away to Cardiff, we're in (as that goal diff won't be overturned).
And if Bolton draw, a draw for us gets us in.

I love the computations and ramifications of this time of the season.

Having said that, I'll love it even more watching from a distance as we're safe in the Play-offs and Palace go up against Leicester for 6th.

Think today's results have leveled the Goal difference with Leicester.

We were 6th when we tonked Huddersfield 4-1 at the start of March. If someone told me we'd have won three of our next 10 matches I'd have been disappointed and would think we'd be waving goodbye to our play-off chances. And yet.... we are comfortably fourth. Amazing!
