How can anyone say it's over?? Wrexham vs Watford (A), Predicted Score: 1-1, Running Total: 61 points vs Sheffield Utd (A), Predicted Score: 2-1 Loss, Running Total: 61 points vs West Brom (A), Predicted Score: 0-1 Win, Running Total: 64 points vs Southampton (H), Predicted Score: 2-1 Win, Running Total: 67 points vs Birmingham (A), Predicted Score: 2-0 Loss, Running Total: 67 points vs Stoke City (H), Predicted Score: 2-0 Win, Running Total: 70 points vs Oxford Utd (A), Predicted Score: 0-1 Win, Running Total: 73 points vs Coventry (A), Predicted Score: 2-1 Loss, Running Total: 73 points vs Middlesbrough (H), Predicted Score: 1-1, Running Total: 74 points Final Stats: 74 Points, +10 Goal Difference. Southampton's Predicted Run-in: vs Norwich (H), Predicted Score: 2-0 Win, Running Total: 60 points vs Oxford Utd (H), Predicted Score: 3-0 Win, Running Total: 63 points vs Wrexham (A), Predicted Score: 2-1 Loss, Running Total: 63 points vs Derby (H), Predicted Score: 2-1 Win, Running Total: 66 points vs Swansea (A), Predicted Score: 1-2 Win, Running Total: 69 points vs Bristol City (H), Predicted Score: 3-0 Win, Running Total: 72 points vs Blackburn (H), Predicted Score: 4-0 Win, Running Total: 75 points vs Ipswich (H), Predicted Score: 1-1, Running Total: 76 points vs Preston (A), Predicted Score: 0-1 Win, Running Total: 79 points Final Stats: 79 Points, +28 Goal Difference. We finish 5 points clear, after losing at Wrexham, with much better goal difference. It won't happen like this but shows we are right in it, but few bad results for either would turn it

Southampton vs Coventry (A): Loss (2-1) — The leaders are just too strong right now. vs Norwich (H): Win (3-1) — Clinical at St Mary's. vs Oxford Utd (H): Win (4-0) — Goal difference booster. vs Ipswich Town (H): Draw (1-1) — A tactical stalemate. vs Wrexham (A): Draw (2-2) — Honors even in North Wales. vs Derby County (H): Win (2-0) — Professional performance. vs Swansea City (A): Win (1-2) — Saints' possession game frustrates the Swans. vs Bristol City (H): Win (2-1) — Late winner secures the points. vs Blackburn (H): Win (3-0) — Dominant home display. vs Preston (A): Draw (1- 1) — Last day nerves We finish two points clear with much better goal difference.

Tonight? Wrexham win and still in our hands. Tricky but achievable
-
3 points behind Wrexham but with better goal difference and still to play them. The very definition of a chase within achievable reach.
-
Back in our hands. Win every game and we are up (as FA Cup winners). Long way to go, and clearly won't win every game but it's nice thought that in theory we are not dependent on other results
-
Who was the last underdog to win a quarter final and stop a team winning the quadruple? And we were really shit then!

An Ai stat analysis (which won't be accurate but is a straw for me to clutch) includes league table, home away from and fixture predictions. Currently 35% chance of top 6. After Hull v Wrexham game, if Hull win up to 45%, draw remains 35%, but Wrexham win we go down to 20%. This is their prediction for the rest of the season with us missing out by 2 points Wrexham 75 points vs Hull City (H): Loss (1-2) vs Swansea City (H): Win vs Watford (A): Draw vs Sheffield Utd (A): Loss vs West Brom (A): Win vs Southampton (H): Draw (1-1) vs Birmingham City (A): Win vs Stoke City (H): Win vs Oxford Utd (A): Win vs Coventry City (A): Loss vs Middlesbrough (H): Draw Our 73 points vs West Brom (A): Win vs Coventry City (A): Loss vs Norwich City (H): Win vs Oxford Utd (H): Win vs Ipswich Town (H): Draw vs Wrexham (A): Draw (1-1) vs Derby County (H): Win vs Swansea City (A): Draw vs Bristol City (H): Win vs Blackburn Rovers (H): Win vs Preston (A): Loss

Would we have won the league with Ramsdale and Onuachu?

TBF confidence comes into it and it was low for everyone, perhaps he never had a chance. I understand your view, but personally was very disappointed. I remember Shilton and how he added to our points with his individual brilliance and maybe expected an England international keeper to do the same. I would rate, just quick gut feeling, Shilton, Niemi, Forster (in his peak for us but not always), Flowers as keepers who really made a difference - more than he did. Did he do any better than Boruc, Jones and Beasant did for us? Probably not -
Guessing you were moaning about the appointment at the start and finding it hard to back track. He has turned a terrible low morale start of season into us performing better than any old school manager is currently managing. It would have been more of a gamble not to appoint him after his start
-
I have only just noticed how young Fellows is, and so how many of out team/ squad are below the age players peak (27 ISH??) Peretz 25 jelert 22 Quashie 21 Wood 23 THB 24 Wellington 25 Charles 22 Jander 22 Fellows 22 Robinson 18 Matsuki 22 Edozie 23 Archer 24 Azaz 25 Maybe well placed for next season's promotion push
-
When you consider immediately before this run we were 3 defeats in a row, 5 without a win - could anyone realistically have expected any appointment to do better? Personally no. You can only judge with what he has done so far, which is a decent sample now, and it has been an excellent appointment without a doubt.
-
Is he? Or is it marketing for his anti-islam agenda and a chance to grift , with his normal scrounging?
-
Players today are much much fitter. And therefore playing against players much fitter and faster. If opponents have fit, fast players, and also rotate their squad and we don't we will be at a fitness disadvantage. It's not saying no players can play three games a week, it's is that they won't be performing at their max and more likely to have injuries. There are loads less injuries than years ago. Edit 1970s average 8km run mostly low intensity 2000s 10km 2020s 13km mainly sprints

Ramsdale isn't a great keeper who can be relied upon. He had two good seasons but was nothing special for the last few years. We have had better, he didn't have an impact last season so doubt he would have been massive this. Better than we had but wouldn't have gained loads more points -
Only Coventry and Middlesbrough have more points since he was appointed. Considering mess he inherited pretty good
