10 games left
2 points outside the play off places

Based on how Reading perform against the better League One teams, if we make the play offs then we'll win them

Causing us to trigger the suspended points deduction therefore missing out on the playoffs? That one?

Just to be safe we should all collectively count to three Mississippis after the final whistle.

I'm hoping to finally make it to my first ever game. I'll be in Glasgow for a course on the 21st of April and got the weekend off before I need to be back up there.

Hopefully be able to get down for Bristol Rovers (a)

Been living in Spain and working in Nigeria so always had to make do with IFollow (before that it was the odd game now and then broadcast on dodgy streams and the bbc live text updates). Would be great to finally get to see a live game. Any reccomendations?

If we make the playoffs I might miss my flight home and turn down my job offer in Taiwan :?

21st April is a bank holiday and Mansfield (A). Bristol Rovers is a relatively small away end and last away game of season, think it might be tight on the old Loyalty points.

I've circled 25th May in my calendar and reserving a few days leave, just in case.

Keep playing like we did last night, we'll go into the play-offs as the form team then who knows?

Once you get to the one-off final, it's all down to who has the minerals on the day. Form doesn't really matter at that point.

If we match the form of the last 10 games in the final 10 games, we will end up on 75 points and comfortably in the playoff.

We are the form team in terms of not losing - other clubs have picked up more points but we are the only side not to have lost in the last 9 games.

Hunty is very good at end of season streaks. Twice in a row with him playing we won 8 games on the bounce at the pointy end of the season to finish high up the table.

I’d love to meet up again, papes.

Need for Bree Louise replacement.

OUT for another dose of post match anguish as the other team’s fans celebrate in their end.
