Not great yet, we don't take 3 points tomorrow, today's results count for nothing

They do, they take the pressure of us, we can actually afford to lose without much effect on our play off position. If they'd all won it would put far more pressure on us.

It's unlikely to be a walk in the park and has the potential to be a banana skin given Charlton's away form.

Be annoying and frustrating to lose but it wouldn't be a disaster.

Exactly. They count for an awful lot regardless of our result!

Really want Watford to take the automatic place ahead of Hull, otherwise we'll probably face Watford.

Leicester are on worse form than you, and 6 points behind, and with Bolton 11 points behind, you should be fine. You just need to sort yourselves out ready for the playoffs. There's a fair chance we'll see you there, which would be unmissable.

Palace still have to play Leicester , Barnsley are fighting for their lives so one potential scenario is Leicester going above Palace on goal difference when they beat them.

We said the exact same thing last season when we were sat comfortably in 4th before winning more games and ending up 10th

Would be a shame to fluff our lines at the last hurdle after such a good season in which we started as one of the relegation favourites still think we're just make it and if we don't then we simply weren't good enough

Of course it could happen, but Leicester have 2 points from their last 7 games, so it's unlikely.

I don't think we got as high as 4th in the run in, and we certainly weren't comfortable. Palace are 6 points clear of a team with a tough run in, and no form, with 6 games to go. Last season we were level on points with 7th place with 6 games to go.

Yep, a real shame. I'd be gutted.

You could be right Triggaaar but who knows it might be what goes around comes around and it could be you who has a bad run :thumbsup:

What has been Palace's biggest lead over us?

I want to say 16 points, but I just don't know.
