It starts with preston

Clough wants to chase down the top 2 but we have 3 teams between us and the top 2 so with us being level on points with Chesterfield obviously don't need to catch them. So it's Preston first 8 points behind and 2 games in hand on them, focus on catching the team above us then the one after etc, we need to really go on a good run now starting tomorrow and we need to make sure we do not lose these games in hand.

Does anyone think we can achieve this ? Or are we just to many points behind?

I'd settle for a playoff spot. We don't look like a side capable of making ground on Bristol and mk. I'm looking over our shoulder at donny and Barnsley coming up on the rails

My heart says "Yes", but my head? Play Offs is were we should aim and also plan towards given the particular nature of the games. Try to end season in good form and confident.

It's unlikely
It's unrealistic

But whilst it's possible... Let's crack on with it

Just get as many points on the board.

And entertain us at home.

I did say I'd fancy us this time around should we make the playoffs given out cup record under cllough.... And then Tuesday happend!

Can't change my mind on that one result, but it has highlighted that with our cup competition reputation and the level of expectation on our fine Football Club, we will have that additional pressure. Let's hope our team have the spine to cope.

I would still be quite confident. We were carrying one or two injuries and many of our first 11 were cup tied. Tuesday wasn't our best team. I believe that we did very good business in the Jan Sales!

Totally agree but that result will give Preston loads of confidence if we meet. Their playoff record is worse than ours though.

Equally, it will give us plenty of incentive.

Just want to avoid 9 teams only 4 points behind us chasing us down

There's more chance of the Queen taking a crap off the balcony of Buckingham Palace. I'll be happy with 6th place.
