Pigs potentially three points off playoffs if they beat us!

[Roygbiv]

People worrying about Wednesday getting into the play offs need to look at their run in. If they are good enough to beat 6 or 7 out of the 9 they have left then they're a much better side than they have shown all season.

Hopefully they still have something to play for by the time they have their double header against Norwich and Leeds

Swansea in 15th can overtake the owls with 2 games in hand . They are just as likely /unlikely as the owls at making the play offs . There are 9 teams after possibly 1 play off spot. Wednesday he is so bad they will need to win 3 games just to get ahead out of the 9 left. If we were 6 points behind Norwich and Leeds with a 10 goal plus he to make up hands jump all who think we'd overtake them

If they were in with a shout then would they beat Leeds and Norwich if it secured our promotion. A beautiful scenario.

The dream is they beat Norwich and Leeds and then we win the league by 3 points.

The nightmare is they lose to Norwich and Leeds and win the rest whilst we miss out on automatic promotion

The surreal is me posting this picture of a Gelada

I have no idea what to post a picture of to represent my thoughts on your reply Roy.

I really hope they finish an agonising 7th. I really hope we don't finish an agonising 3rd.

on goal difference too.

Norwich v Wednesday on Sky now. Might go to my Wednesday mates house to watch it where I might be supporting the pigs and he might be supporting Norwich

As someone else said recently, the Oinkers away might just have been our 'Oldham away' in the last promo season.
Didn't Bolton get beat there?

They are now actually three points off the play-offs (having played a game more than the three teams above them). If they got in the Play Offs I'd dread finishing 3rd. Wouldn't fancy Brentford either.

That’s the spirit!

I did ask when you started this thread why would you give a feck about the Pork and here you are bumping it up all over again and already throwing in the towel should we play them. I bet the Pigs just love you pal.

Throwing in the towel? Not at all. Where did I imply that? I'd expect us to beat them if we got them in the Play Offs.

However, I'm sure that like me, very few Blades fans want to meet them again this season. Do you? I'd rather face any other team to be honest. I do give a fuck about where they finish - I want them to finish as low as possible.

You can't deny that they are now three points off the Play Offs and have a slight chance of finishing 6th (and thus playing us if we finish 3rd). Unlikely I know but face it - it could happen. I doubt any Pig would "love me" for pointing out this fact. Personally I hope they don't win another game this season unless it helps our cause.

The same Brentford who we've now beaten twice? (with us playing a good few of our reserves at their ground)

7th to 15th is likely to look very different after tonight's games and I would be surprised if the Pigs aren't at least a few places and a couple more points further away from 6th. And that is their problem, too many teams around and above them who are just as good, if not much better than they are.

We only have to rely on one team slipping up to get 2nd, they have to rely on 5 or 6 either slipping up or completely losing interest in order to snatch a playoff place. Oh and of course they have to keep on winning, and from seeing their fixtures in April I just can't see that happening.

When you said that if they got in the play-offs you’d dread finishing 3rd. Let’s not big them up into something they’re not, but I do take your point .

I recall we beat Palace twice in the league.

Not that I expect Brentford to get anywhere near the playoffs. Or get promoted in the next three years.

Ok then.

If Brentford get to the play-offs we should be very worried about playing them

 

[Hamburg Blade]

If they'd done the double over us, they'd be level on points with 6th place. If we'd done the double over them, we'd be top, also level on points.
Meaningless, but interesting.

This
They have to play Leeds, Norwich, Forest, Villa, Bristol and Preston
Every one of them is better than Wendy, Bristol are on a bad run, but all the others are in good form and are better than Wendy

Which is a real shame, because it would be fantastic if they beat Leeds and Norwich.
