It's not over

If anything tells you this isn't over yet, just look at the Bristol scoreline.

Plenty of twists and turns yet, but I think we'll miss out to Brentford.

We'll win next week.

Mate, the rotund female has warmed up and is about the walk on stage...

Whilst mathematically you're right, our recent performances indicate we'd struggle to hold on to a lead against our own Ladies Team...

In a way, the sooner we're mathematically unable to go up, the better. In reality, it was over 3 or 4 weeks ago (although probably much earlier) - when we started chucking points away. You might get away with that in a relegation struggle but not among the big boys.

Today, Wolves, Brentford, Middlesbrough and Villa showed what you need to do to get the results that matter. Millwall have just finished a 17-match unbeaten run. Fulham are unbeaten in 20 games. That's promotion form (and it's uncertain if Millwall will get in the play-offs). Since September 12, our longest winning sequence? Two games, and we've only achieved that twice.

Our poor form since the Coutts injury on November 17, (when we were in second place) has meant we've won 30 points in 27 games. That's relegation form. How the fuck we've still been (mathematically) in with a chance of the play-offs is a miracle, but not any more.

It was over a while ago in reality. We've limped on but we don't win when we play well and put in an utterly awful display every other away game.

Delusion, is one word........

It is though really.

We’ve had far too many chances of late and failed to get to really the biz so I’m not building my hopes up anymore. If a miracle happens so be it, a nice surprise on the back of a good first season back in the Championship, but I’m not living in hope anymore, it’s the hope that kills ya.
