I remember doing this last season and us not making the play-offs (which was no surprise).
Fact is we still have some difficult matches in the next few games, although I will not do the calculator I can confidentally say that if we fail to beat any of our fellow play off candidates in the next 4 matches (Boro, Watford, Bourn) we will be vying for 6th place and that will be about it - confidence will be shot by then.

I'm surprised I have Watford so high, guess they don't have the toughest run in - 1 point separating the top 4, and us vs the scum in the play-offs, can't see that going well - so can't imagine a worse possible end to the season!! :-(

My previous attempt was too upsetting, so I've redone it with my bluest tinted glasses on - this table makes me feel much better!!! :-)

80 points should be enough to see us in the play-offs - in fairness, looking at our final games (at home especially) there are points there for the offering.

Let us all be honest though, we know we're destined to meet the scum at Wembley.

I have us 2nd but as we all know the championship is just mad , we could with the right results do anything .

we'll need 79/80 points just to make play-offs...85/86 for top 2 (unlikely)...top 5 will all get 80+....between us & Brentford to nick 6th

Had a crack after todays game... this'll do!
