in our hands

[Alan Roberts' Jinking Run]

No it doesn't Middlesbrough could still go above us.

In theory yes, but they havent won in 5. The wheels have fallen off.

And another dodgy ref today, turned 2 stonewallers down for us whilst Millwall get one given in the 8th minute of added on time. Hmm. Not dodgy at all then. Presume we are not bribing them or the envelope isn't quite fat enough!

Hate to say it, but watching it back the Sharp "penalty" was pathetic

A win and a draw and our gd protects our 6th place

Boro have 3 games left so could end up on 73pts same as us if we got a win and a draw so three 2-0 wins could put them above us on gd. We can't relax just yet.

Agreed, on the highlights I just thought “no”.

In theory you are correct, and I wouldn't back them to do it.
But they could still over take us, so the poster I was replying too was wrong, which they seem to be quite alot.

Have you ?

yes three times

I didnt mean in every scenario just its worth a point against most chasing us
ie if Boro draw 2 and win one

Boro have 3 games left so could end up on 73pts same as us if we got a win and a draw so three 2-0 wins could put them above us on gd. We can't relax just yet.

I meant it's made it harder for them
As odd goal wins. aren't enough
they've scored 1 or 0 in 9 of their last 10

Big goal for Millwall in 97th minute.

We'd have all taken today's results at lunchtime but still plenty to play for.

 

[newforestblade]

Need to watch out for Millwall. Only hope that loss there doesn't come back to haunt us like some big ghostly lion thing.

Yes looking ominous with Millwall, One of their goals by our player, then an EIGHTH minute injury time penalty to grab a point.
(When do we get that lucky? )
Reminds me of the game after we lost at MK dons when Ched went down and the Pigs scored an FIFTH minute injury time winner.

Millwall got Cherries away last game of season. Cherries will probably need to win that game to seal that 2nd place and can't see Millwall getting a win. Best a draw

exciting fixture tbf, could decide 2nd, 3rd, 6th and 7th place in one fell swoop

 

[blade too long]

If Boro draw one of last 3 and we win at QPR no one can overtake us
Millwall won't make up the gd

Chris already bigging their Cardiff game up:

Cardiff is 'season-defining' as Wilder vows Boro will keep fighting

With three games to go, Middlesbrough need to be near enough perfect to make the Championship play-offs

Hopefully they make a right Pig's ear of it!

Nil nil would do just fine or a cheeky Aiden Flint winner!
