The Championship Thread 2023/2024

[Pinfox]

Here’s the thing…

 

play off final is scheduled for Sunday 26th May (if we are being pessimistic)

 

fa cup final is scheduled for Saturday 25th May (if we are being optimistic)

 

just saying ….

Coventry have a huge part to play for the rest of the season, all 3 rivals have to play them

Just now, Hammo said:

We put ourselves in a great position to ‘piss’ this league. Unfortunately we are now in a great position to ‘piss it away’.

 

Home form will be decisive, but unless Maresca modifies his strategy - or at least becomes more flexible and less predictable - then visitors to the KP will do what Boro and QPR did.

 

The blueprint has been set and opposition managers would be foolish not to copy it. Over to you, Enzo. Use the international break wisely and let’s see what you are made of…

get dodgy asf decisions go their way and score offside goals

If he takes that attitude and starts feeling sorry for himself we are well and truly f****d.

I’ve for a while now had Leeds finishing on 98pts and that’s not changed 

[Stuntman_Mike]

Millwall in decent form going into the Leeds game next week

Millwall will be a tough game away for Leeds ,  under Harris they have a siege mentality. 

It would be if it was away - but it ain't!

I think 94 points will be enough for automatic promotion we will definitely get enough. 

[coolhandfox]

6 wins from 9 get us over the line for me.

 

Think we will come back flying after the break.

 

Leeds will not want the break now we will welcome it.

[Mickyblueeyes]

Ipswich in their next 4 have saints and the east anglia derby. Saints in their next 2 have Boro and Ipswich. 
 

forget the title for now. There will be points dropped by both. So many of ours need to pick themselves for it.

Leeds have Millwall before the international break.

As I said last week, I appreciate there is an interest in the teams around us but every season I feel our fans hold what other teams are doing in more importance than what we actually do, Leeds drew last week, Ipswich lost today, it counts for nothing if we don't do the job ourselves.

In their current form they will want to keep the games coming, they will not want to stop especially of they beat Millwill.

they might be winning/getting results but their performances have been awful(according to a leeds mate), lucky to win Tuesday night even against 10 men

I'm not sure Ipswich are only talking 16 points in the next 9, think we need nearer 98-100.

Who do you see them dropping points to then?

They will get 12-15 points at the most can see them losing when they play Coventry, Norwich , Southampton and  Hull  there other fixtures they will either draw or win. So I think 94 points will be enough for us

Yeah bet its shite being unbeaten in 14 and closing a 12/13 pt gap to 3 in the space of 4 games

[Foxmeister]

Nah.  It's mostly. sunshine.  We've been the best team in the division since all the teams were put together and we continue to show that consistently.

 

We're in a great spot now but it's still up to Leicester.  You have the advantage and control in terms if winning the league.

You constantly saying this will never become unfunny

[Daggers]

I’m going to love Ipswich punting Leeds into the play-offs and watching them remain in the Championship for another season.
