    udders slipped up against bristol city and newcastle only drew at birmingham where we thrashed birmingham away so dont be surprised if brighton lose their next 4 matches or newcastle draw their next 4 matches and the way leeds are going we can easily beat reading and newcastle away this auto promotion has not gone to bed yet by a long chalk!!!

    I think every leeds fan would be hoping you're right Sniffer, at same time, I think most leeds fans will be realistic......:emoticon-0148-yes:

    I recognise and respect your passion Sniffer, but sometimes you have to look through the passion to see the reality, and you're right, either top two teams can implode; but so can Leeds, Reading, Hudders and the Owls, also includes Fulham.

    Every game Brighton or Newcs don't lose, is a game closer to us playing in playoff finals, they have the afforded luxury of being able to lose 1 game and still be favourites for auto promotion, doesn't matter if they get it by 1 point, goal average or 10 points........:emoticon-0148-yes:

    Sniffer is right anything can happen. he did not say it is likely, but its good to be in a position where we are still in with a chance of automatic promotion at this stage in the season.

    In fairness, at least Sniffy may be removed from reality but on a positive side which is always refreshing

    Exactly LL as Toon & Brighton have earned their positions whereby they can afford a slip or 2 with the runs that have taken them to the autos, where they've been most season. <ok>

    Anyone can blow it at anytime, yourselves included as pressure can do funny things to teams.

    Not a chance... You get a nosebleed everything the pressure comes on. 8th is where you will finish even with your games in hand.

    We'll see as it's in our hands so only ourselves to blame otherwise, the cup run has deffo taken it out of us.

    On the same theme, you'll have just as good a chance in the playoffs as anyone else mate. <ok>

    You should've deliberately taken an early exit from the cup like we did <whistle> because now we're flying and you've gone into a tailspin :biggrin:
