Play offs..

Anyone thinking we can do it? Looking back over the last five years, the highest no of points to get 6th was 77 and the lowest was 68 last season. So I’d say 72 points minimum.
27 points from our remaining 13 games isn’t out of the question.
If only we sorted out our away form.

Not a cat in hells chance. Dreadful away form and not enough goals scored by almost every other player bar Vipotnik.

I don’t think so, not with the fixtures we have in the last 13 games. 65 points would be more than acceptable.
And that’s fine, even to be talking about this being a slight possibility means that Matos has been a huge success, and we can genuinely expect to put in a serious challenge next season.

Been thinking about this by the way and not certain I’d like to make the playoffs. I mean it would be exciting and we’d all be thrilled to do it again but honestly, the thought of getting absolutely humped week in week out next season would be dire.

Brilliant for money for the club but totally depressing as a fan.

Last time round, we had a real way of playing , a settled team and some genuinely talented players to add to.

This time we’d be facing such an uphill battle and need almost an entirely new team. I mean it can be done I guess, but it’s a ridiculously difficult ask. And looking at Luton, the money added through parachute payments doesn’t guarantee the next season would be better.

I’d prefer it if we developed a much stronger base before getting up again.

Maybe that’s just me though.

I agree. We're not ready for Prem. The Luton example is also a good one when the argument used is let's just take the money and build again. For the moment I'm just enjoying the home games, been such a long time since I did.
