Just looked at comments from some other sites and Reading, Bournemouth, and even Swansea now see us as real challengers. Reading and Bournemouth are not happy!

i think catching the Jacks is going ot be a bridge too far but they will not want us in the play offs. They will be desperate for an auto place.

One of the comments from Planet Swans:


Top six watch on 10:55 - Feb 25 by RiscaJack

Watched them yesterday against Bournemouth, second half anyway, and it was a complete contrast for me from what I saw against Luton, a very, very dangerous side at this level. They were everywhere.

God knows what was going on under Harris.

My hope is they run out of steam due to the efforts they are putting in but I can't see them dropping out of play offs.


They are nailed on for the playoffs, and as I said wouldn't want to meet them.

Got to admit I'm amazed at the tune MM is getting out of them.

If he’d seen the first half instead of the second he’d really be worried.

My dream scenario would be to smash the Swans in the playoff final. How sweet that would be, especially after all the stick they were giving us until big Mick rocked up! :ayatollah:

It is a concern. We play with such a high tempo that injuries or burnout is inevitable with the busy schedule. Will be good to have ralls back. Losing Moore would be devasting. When you're under pressure he's a brilliant outlet and good at defending corners etc as well, so difficult to take him off if the game is tight. Him and Wilson won't get a rest during international break either. Hopefully we can keep scoring like we are, shut up shop and get a couple of key players off early in games.

The only player I would really be worried about losing is Moore I thing we have cover everywhere else paticularly when Ralls and Tomlin are fit again. Hoilett and Bacuna can slot into midfield well. Brown can fill in for any of the centre backs. It would be a bit of a problem If Ng got injured but presumably Tutu will be fit soon. Apart form Moore we have a fair bit of strength in depth which should see us right.

They’ve no concern at us getting into top 2.
We’ve got enough on our plates to keep in the top 6 as it is and if Moore particularly gets injured we’ll have less chance.
