should be a decent atmosphere in there on friday to be fair-used to love the old bushranger back in the day for a few pints with my ol' man.

I've just moved back to the manor after a short spell away, I'm hearing good things about the The Eagle on Askew Road. Stacked full of proper women on a Friday night and right lively, gonna pile in there after I hope.

In fact 2nd and 3rd spots will keep changing till the last day of the season.

Swansea aren't even in my eye line. I called they would not challenge.

I'd still wish Norwich over Cardiff and I think my intial point has been lost.

[Ads1985]

To me looks like Cardiff have found form again. Norwich on a little dip and I have always thought Swansea are too reliant on home form. Saying that they could only manage a draw with Hull, I think Hull will go up next year as they are assembling a very good championship squad.

Forest have something to play for now, if they hadn't have got a result yesterday they had left themselves with a lot to do. Additionally, Norwich have an injury doubt over Grant Holt. I think a draw is on the cards.

So if Norwich don't beat Forest and we beat Derby were up - Is that right?

We cant get promoted untill leeds with the whole fa thing. pains me to say that but one game at a time lads. Patients

No...5 games to go means 15 points. add that to wotever points the team below us have and see if they pass our points tally.

But there will be only 4 games after Monday, and therefore a max of 12 pts available.

yes i was just giving an example of how we must look at it.

[Warnocks Lad]

FA still at the back of the mind tho :(

I know.

Although totally understandable, I do find it amusing how much time is given to "IT" actually happening and everyone getting so worked up.

Don't remember being anywhere near as anxious in '83. Or '73 come to that.
Still, I was young and carefree then.

Nope because if Swansea win and we win, technically, with a 12 point difference, they can can still catch us. Has to be said that they currently have a GD of +19 to our +38. So, unlikely.

However, if they win their Saturday game by a bigger margin than our Derby game (or equal to) and then go on to win their remaining 4 games, say, 3-0, whilst we lose them all 2-0 they will overtake our goal difference and be promoted ahead of us.

So, to all intents and purpose we will be promoted by what you say. Just don't think the table will have a "P" by our name if Swansea win on Saturday and we win on Monday for the above reason. i.e Not mathematically certain.
