For those who think they’ve blown automatic, after playing Charlton at home today Ipswich visit Peterborough then Barnsley. Let’s see what the table looks like then.

I was chatting to an Argyle ST holder yesterday and he was incredibly worried about today after last week. He really thought they`d end up in the play offs and then **** it up again.

Plymouth by contrast have Shrewsbury away followed by 3 home games against Cambridge, Gas, and Burton ending with a trip to Port Vale. Now top 2 points clear of Wednesday and 4 points clear of Ipswich ........ I can't see them slipping up now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 Just noticed that Argyle`s win guaranteed them the play offs at worst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For them today was like us having to go to Rovers & win to stay in contention, I know the idea of us playing those jokers in a league game seems just ridiculous, but you get my drift. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 Strange scenes in the league below where Orient are on the pitch celebrating promotion……but the game isn’t finished as there was a delay because of floodlight failure.

Red Army 79 Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 They will be kicking themselves if they don’t go up from here. Next three games are at home. 3 out of the 4 games are against teams with nothing to play for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard on the radio that they got promoted at the weekend? Because 3 clubs couldn't finish above them as they can't all pick up max points cos they have fixtures against each other?

Apparently 6th place Bradford could have mathematically caught them before tonight. Wish they were going up to our league as they’re the only London club I’ve not visited.

Wanderingred Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 I’ve been hoping they would blow it but that seems a long shot now. Hopefully six points for us next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southend Blue Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 Say it quietly but tonight I was really hoping for a Bristol Rovers win. Sorry. Sheffield Wednesday are proving erratic in the league and we at ITFC have to take advantage of any slip ups from them and Plymouth. Unfortunately both teams won, I was not pleased to learn the Devonians scored in added time as it cost us a place at the top of the League. League One is horrible, it's really tough to get out from. You can only be in this league and fighting for a promotion place to understand what a hike it is to make it out and back to Championship level. We ourselves laboured to a home win over Port Vale. Scored late from a penalty to win it. Didn't see Ashton making a song and dance or anything. No Histrionics. In fact it was lacklustre for a time and the Staffs team could just have easily taken a point from it. Wasn't as effective as past games and we seemed tired and devoid of ideas at times. Suppose excuses can be made after winning the last one 6 - 0 at the weekend. Don't know why but look out for Derby County's result every round of games we play. They're unlikely to be promoted but remind me of a comedy act that has had it's day and running on it's last legs but just continue to the end and can't seem to allow themselves that's it's over. Kind of like Laurel and Hardy in Atoll K or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not win either, even two draws, and it will be a nervy last 2 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderingred Posted April 19, 2023 Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 (edited) It’s very likely that one of the three, probably Wednesday or Ipswich will be missing out on promotion with a points total in the mid 90s. Insane. Anybody know the record number of points accumulated without being promoted? Edited April 19, 2023 by Wanderingred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehinton Posted April 19, 2023 Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 They are absolutely relentless. The amount of late goals and games where they’ve gone behind and come back to win is crazy. Shows the mentality. Be very surprised if they don’t win the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did subsequently go and win the Playoffs though. EDIT: Just checked. Sheffield United ended up 3rd in 2011/12 and were on 90 points.

W-S-M Seagull Posted April 19, 2023 Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 (edited) So if either Ipswich or Wednesday fail to pick up maximum points at the weekend, and Plymouth win, then Plymouth can clinch promotion against Rovers?
