Wigan Away - REARRANGED FOR APRIL 1st, 7:45pm.

It's still highly unlikely that this will be the night in my eyes. We need to get 5 more points than QPR in our next four games (and they play five in that time by the way) and 7 more than Derby.

 

I think after their next 4 games the maximum they'll both be able to reach is 91 points (that's with some very generous allowances for what they might pick up in those 4 matches given their fixtures) - see my post in the 'Points for Promotion' thread.

 

If we can therefore reach 89/90 points with our next 5 matches (4 wins out of five or 4 wins and a draw) then we'll have a very good chance of this being the night. It sounds a lot but our next three games are very winnable, especially given the way we're playing at the moment.

I'd hate to break the curse - but it's already beyond realistic that we're going to throw it away. But to make Wigan the first game we can confirm it mathematically QPR must take no more than 8pts from:

Yeovil (H)

Wednesday (A)

Boro (A)

Wigan (H)

Blackpool (H)

and, at the same time, Derby take no more than 5pts from:

Reading (A)

Forest (H)

Ipswich (A)

Charlton (H)

Plus we take the necessary points. Don't get me wrong, it's far from impossible. But even on current form for all sides involved - it's not likely.

I don't think it will be before the Brighton game and, in all probability, I can see it being Reading away.

Yeh bought my ticket this evening. Iwan Is A Welshsman is trying to convince himself it won't be Wigan in hope I think! Although he's cotrect it is unlikely

Got nothing to hope about mate - it's clearly going to go to General Sale and by then QPR will have played 4 of those 5 games.

Need to drive for this, seems like at the ground parking is as good as any but anybody know anything better?

 

Last time I went to Wigan I just parked on the streets at the nearby housing, nothing happened to the car and it didn't cost me anything. Might be worth doing instead of paying for the ground parking.

Just got mine for this, gutted it got moved from a Saturday though, think we would have taken more here than to Blackburn.

 

Hoping for a good turnout still.  Probably shift tons more if we win tomorrow and against Burnley.

I think it will go to general sale mate.

Course it will !!! Even Blackburn on a Saturday afternoon didn't. This will only dell out if it the game that meant we go up.

You got a cold?

We? I'm pretty sure you have an Arsenal play as your picture?

I have a Man City player in mine :(

I won't bother going Wigan. Do you want my ticket?

Can't see us selling many for this. Majority will have done Blackburn/Burnley instead.

That's the plan for me...and many more after the game.
