I won't know how to feel about this game until tomorrow night. If we win, it becomes a giant distraction. A draw or defeat and its a chance to showcase the club. And start our continued refreshening of the squad, with key rotation in the games that follow. As we make our way towards the play off arena end boss. This feels like the busiest end to a season ever. No time to even look forward to the games approaching. Even the EPL has managed to peak interest. Next season will be so dull by comparison.

Just seen that soft penalty Ipswich got yesterday, and it got me thinking about some decisions they have got lately. Questionable pen decisions at Norwich. (9 for the season) Birmingham had a perfectly legit goal ruled out. The game called off at the 80 minute mark while they were losing. Just a few off the top of my head. There's no way they are winning their remaining games unless they get some serious help from the officials. And now there's more people paying attention. I think Millwall are a bigger threat now.

I initially thought it was the calendar year, so googled it, and it said Feb. Might be counting a cup game.

People often mention Bristol City ending our 25 game unbeaten streak in 2024. But its the other one that still pains me. The one in December 2011. We were flying, we were on the up. And we hadn't lost a league game at home since February. And then Bristol fecking City turn up. I hope we put this to bed, because I don't think I can take the treble from hell. That would put them in forever bogey territory.

Yep. We are looking for snookers now.

17th and 9th place in the Championship are only separated by four points. Quite embarrassing for Qpr to already be checked out. As a gaffer, I wouldn't want that on my CV for the sake of a few games. Could well lose your job for that sort of finish.

used that pathetic excuse that the parent company, not the club, were in administration ----------------------------------- Although, it had never been tested before, so had it come off it would have looked slick. Just playing devils advocate.

At some stage, pompey are going to be really bloody irritating once again. But this season I have found them to be the least offensive version of themselves for many a year. There's three other teams who have been run atrociously, I'd prefer to see drop before them. Be warned, if Boro beat Town on Sunday I might well post something nice about them as well!

I want to be excited about this game, but where its sandwiched is filling me with trepidation. But that's a good thing. And hopefully I'm still worried by next weekend.

So pleased Larin has made this question possible.

There has to be a cut off point where the deduction cannot fall on this season. Its ridiculous they could be penalised while so few games are left. Also, it allows the law makers to allow a deduction to fit, when in reality there should be a standard point deduction that fits the case and is strictly followed. Leaving it this late is unsettling to quite a few teams. I'm starting to think the powers that be would prefer just to decide football match results in a boardroom somewhere.

Planets are aligning.......

Strong, but lacking goals. Lets see what happens.

Both home wins tonight and its still on. Anything else and we just prepare for the play offs. No problem wanting Pompey to get all three, helps both ends of the table if you ask me.

I'd like to see Sheff Wed get four more points to end the season outside of the points deficit. They have shown a great spirit in the last couple of games. Hopefully they can get back on track next season, but they'll probably just get another massive deduction.
