You are absolutely correct but expect zilch comeback

You are allowed an extra concussion sub so I assume it was that.

Yep. Hard to not see us going up if we win Friday 

I think the Leeds and Hull away games will be better for us than the home ones…. The emphasis will be on the home teams and we can play a counter style 

[Simonb]

We'll win at least 9 games .. We'll be fine 

[Tuna]

Got a bad feeling about the Bristol City away game, good friday at 12:30pm yikes

We are 9pts clear that is a big gap, if Man City were 9pts clear at the top of the prem would you put your money on second and third?

no I wouldn’t but we’re not Man City. We’re the football team version of Devon Loch.

Providing we don’t get overwhelmed

Why people are worried about Ipswich is beyond me.

 

They are too leaky.

[Bert]

We’ve lost 5 games out of 33. That’s one loss every 6.6 games. On that basis, we only lose two more games this season. 
 

Of course that’s not how it works, but just another spin on things.

I’m going to this one 

[FOXSE]

If we w9, d2 L2 for rest of season, we break the old points record. Most people look at that and think 'yes, but that's a tough ask!'

 

But for leeds or Ipswich to get to 108 they have to win their last 13 games (Southampton can only get 106) but people are like, 'yes, I can see two of those three winning pretty much all their remaining games!'

 

I think it's only natural to be honest.... but we really are in a great position!

[Jattdogg]

IMO, leeds is overdue for a loss .

 

Hope its this friday.

[trugerkem]

We are essentially 10 points clear of 3rd as we have a +22 goal difference over Ipswich

They are but they are also lucky and when you're lucky good things happen. 

[F T Fagos]

So we're 9 points clear with 13 games to go. Even if we lose 2 or 3 games, no one is catching us because they'll all be dropping points as well. Let's just get this thing done, so we can bin this thread.

One of the Ipswich subs was for a potential concussion....anyone got any more straws we can clutch at 

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

 

I feel much better after the Southampton - Hull result. I think our players might get a psychological boost as well.

I' clutch at so many straws sometimes I need a barn.

[AyewJoking]

Leicester sitting pretty

 

DONT LOSE ON FRIDAY

I believe the concussion was actually to the Rotherham player in the first half. My understanding is that to ensure fairness, an additional sub is granted to both sides when a concussion is sustained.

[winteriscoming]

Head says we’ll cruise it. 
Heart keeps telling me that we were 10+ points clear of 5th place twice consecutively and blew top 4 in the pl. 

One game at a time.

Correct, I did the short version but thanks for the factual one mate

Ipswich don't seem to know when they are beaten. Easy to write them off for top 2, but they don't seem to think like that.

I feel that is a direct reflection on their manager.

Or a direct deflection off their manager!
