It isn't as Peterborough and Sunderland play each other so only one of them can win all their games. And, of course if we win all our games we will have beaten Sunderland. We are in the strongest position.
Using the 'if xx win all games', then technically Peterborough are actually in the strongest position, not us! If they win all their games, they will finish top, end of (and will have beaten Sunderland along the way). All nonsense anyway, as it ain't gonna happen .... hopefully starting tonight
Yes, but as I said, in response to your first post, Sunderland and Peterborough both couldn't win all their remaining games. Still think we are in a really strong position for automatic promotion.
I only started this thread because the other one had gone a bit sour for a while. Shall I close this so the conversations are all in one place? I think it'd be messy to merge them.
Wait a second. I'm writing a paper on schizoid tendencies. These parallel threads contain fertile resource material. Stasis quo for me?
So, if Peterborough win every game they can't overtake us if we win every game, unless they score a hatful in every game, and as one of their games is Sunderland then their games in hand won't be enough. Remember when the pessimists were telling us every team that had games in hand would overtake us and leave us outside the top six? (Not considering that some of these games were against each other or ourselves so they all couldn't win all their games). Urika Peece more sensibly said that he would rather have points on the board than games in hand only for these naysayers to shoot him down.
