Play off positions now...

3 Hudds - 77
4 Reading - 73
5 Leeds - 72
6 Sheff W - 72
7 Fulham - 70

Leeds playing tonight at Newcastle.....

On Monday

Fulham v Villa (2.45 ko)
Leeds v Wolves
QPR v Sheff W
Derby v Huddersfield (5.00 ko)

On Monday I have to say I think Fulham, Leeds and Sheff Wed will all win. I reckon Huddersfield are most likely to come unstuck but it certainly means that it is going to go to the wire.....

Worst possible set of results for us. Huddersfield, Fulham and Sheffield Wednesday all win. And I don't fancy us tomorrow at Villa!!

Wow, that actually could not have gone any worse. Predicting a Leeds win to complete the comedy

Lots of pressure on the boys to get a result tomorrow now

Not the greatest results for us, but at the end of the day you can't control those games. No need to panic even if we do lose, as we have 4 very winnable games to round off the season, and Wednesday play Fulham on the last day (so they can't both get 3 points).

But obviously I expect the mongs to come out in force before we've even played to announce that we are almost certainly now going to drop out of the play-offs and relegation next season is a formality.

Fulham would be much better placed had they not missed 7 penalties (out of 10 awarded) this season so far!!

After Saturday I don't fancy us against anyone. Tomorrow is massive another Norwich performance and I can see us missing out.

I can't see us beating Villa but I also can't see us getting pasted again.
A draw would be a massive result.
Yes we 'should' beat Rotherham...
With Forest losing to blackburn you better believe they will be up for a scrap at theirs in a few weeks.

If I were a gambling man I'd have Fulham sneaking it ahead of us I'm afraid.

I'm trying to keep the faith but the perennial schizophrenic nature of our performances haunts my dreams :|

Fulham have Villa (h), Huddersfield, (a) Brentford (h) and Sheffield Wednesday (a)

We have Villa (a), Rotherham (h), Forest (a) Wigan (h) and Burton (a)

I don't think Fulham will get 3 points more than us in those fixtures.

Chin up lads. 4 points from these 2 and another solitary win from the final 3 will get us in. I still think we will finish in the top 6. We are a better side than Sheffield Wednesday and us winning home and away against them proves it.

Tomorrow won't be easy but let's get an atmosphere going with our decent numbers going and not just sit on our hands and we might get the result we need at Villa Park.

Have faith. We'd need to lose 3 of the last 5 to miss out with Fulham and Weds still playing each other

Birmingham fans very vocal in wanting Zola out.

Dear me, get worried if we fail to pick maximum points against Rotherham or Wigan.

Whoever finishes in 6th spot deserves to be in the play offs full stop - not about a few good results here and there - they have dropped home points against poor teams recently

That run in they have is pretty horrible.

weeeelll......their owners favoured getting a marquee (pretty sh1t, tbf) manager over the decent one that they already had.

Delighted for them.

It's not the first time Fulham have done us over at a critical point of the season either...
