Parsnip Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Late & improbable runs to glory are so commonplace in English football that it's actually beneficial to be a few points off where you want to be at this stage. Fulham have got absolutely zero chance of the play offs now - they've got too many points. Derby however are perfectly placed and will almost certainly be promoted this season. That's based on maths.

Bris Vegas Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 If we win every game, which is extremely unlikely, we can make it. Having said that, should we win every game including the trip to Hillsbrough, we would need Sheffield Wednesday to pick up no more than 10 points from their other five remaining matches.

Ken Tram Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 At least we can give up on relegation now. We can't finish in the bottom three now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So assuming they won't get anything at Newcastle - they'll need 3 wins and a draw from their remaining 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plymouthram Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Blimey we have gone from 80/1 to around 50/1 for promotion after tonight's result, and before we played QPR you could have got 150/1 with some bookies. If we win at Birmingham and Fulham, Sheff W and Preston all drop points, what will the odds drop to then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andicis Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Wednesday have Newcastle on the weekend. Assuming they lose that. We beat Brum it's 4 points. Provided we then beat the Wendies it's 1 point. Doesn't look such a big gap now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then look at anyone else has got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then look at anyone else has got. I personally don't believe we'll have to worry about Fulham. They have to go away to Norwich (toughie), play vs a red hot Villa, and go away to Huddersfield too. I don't think they'll be there come the end. I think ultimately we need to worry about the wendies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
