With crystal palace losing again tonight does that leave them to far behind to catch us ?
They are now 12 points behind us but we have a game in hand .

1 Cardiff City 28 19 3 6 50 30 20 60 winwinwinwindrawwin
2 Leicester City 28 15 5 8 49 23 26 50 losedrawwinwinwinwin
3 Hull City 28 15 5 8 39 31 8 50 windrawwindrawlosedraw
4 Watford 29 15 4 10 56 39 17 49 winlosewinwinwinlose
5 Crystal Palace 29 13 9 7 50 36 14 48 losedrawwinlosedrawlose
6 Middlesbrough 28 15 2 11 47 39 8 47 losewinwinloseloselose
7 Brighton 28 10 12 6 40 30 10 42 drawlosewinwindrawdraw

I think realistically theres only 5 teams who have a chance to catch us now
palace are walking a very thin line and one more unexpected defeat coupled with a win for us would pretty much finish there challenge to us off
Watford dont seem to have the strength in depth to prolong there challenge as seen the other night .
Borough are just as likely to lose 5 in a row as they are to win them , strange team .
Brighton too far behind to effect us

That leaves only 2 credibal threats to our promotion and we hae to play them both :D :ayatollah: :malky:

If we keep doing the business we don't have anything to worry about!! Leicester do look good though ! They are due a defeat though! Hopefully wolves do us a favour tomorrow!! :ayatollah:
