riverroyal Clutching at straws I know, but, and a big but, we could still get second spot if we win all our remaining games and . . . .
Birmingham drop at least one point against Watford away or Preston home. They have their keeper suspended for a game and Ridgwell out for the season so it is possible
and
Cardiff drop at least 3 points against Preston (away), Charlton (away), Ipswich (home), Sheffield Wednesday (away). Tricky away games there so that could be possible, two draws would do.
and
Sheffield United drop at least 3 points against Burnley (away), Swansea (home) and Palase (away). Burnley away looks tricky and again, 2 draws could do

yappy Well obviously I hope we win all our games too
At the moment I couldn't really care less about what the teams above us are doing. Until we start performing and picking up points, it doesn't matter what the other teams are doing.

Arch but if you come away from every game let down and disappointed again, being in contention ceases to matter much.

AlexY25 I hope we win all our games so the Birmingham game might have something to play for in it.

EVERY game?
This year
I wasn't disappointed when we won 4-0 v Watford (but Lita's goal cost me £1,300)
I most definitely wasn't disappointed when we beat Wolves 1-0
The 0-0 at QPR was drab but I was pleased with the point
I wasn't particularly down when we drew 0-0 at home to Preston
Being in Sheffield for the 2-1 win was GREAT!, not at all disappointing
The 2-2 draw at Plymouth wasn't disappointing, and KEBE scored!
The 2-2 home draw with Charlton was only a bit disappointing. We played well-enough and the odd oops equaliser happens!
How can we be disappointed winning 1-0 away at Doncaster?
The 0-0 at Palace was a bit disappointing, but a point away when you finish with ten men has to be a positive
The 0-0 at Coventry, now that was just empty of life and I felt deflated
Only the result disappointed v Sheffield. I enjoyed the game, some great tackles, Matty on fire for an hour, and we were unlucky
Blackpool was only disappointing because we blew it, but a 2-2 draw away at any club would normally be seen as a solid result.

PEARCEY The seasons far from over. Everyone keeps banging on about not wanting to play Cardiff in the play-offs as if they were Brazil...
The play-offs(if we make them and we should)will be a clean slate.
There is no reason why we cant win through provided the players are up for it which frankly is the least we should expect.
Automatic promotion has been well and truely screwed up but the season remains very much alive.
Promotion is still there for the taking.
The way most are talking on here it would seem like we have just been relegated.
Like it or not this season is still one of the most successful this club has ever had. It could still be memorable for the right reasons.
No point in giving up when there is still a chance.

This is the best comment on the matter. It's all very well still being in contention, but if you come away from every game let down and disappointed again, being in contention ceases to matter much. Being of an optimistic disposition, I'll go into the next game with hopes of a turn-around - after all, our supposedly shit and worthless squad has put in some great, league-best performances this season - but it's long since that would have counted as "normal service resumed". Normal service has become disappointment.
