Of all the teams in League One we get undone by ****ing Lincoln. A team that was playing in the National League 10 years ago and that hasn't been in the 2nd Division since the '50s. Oh well.
    Being annoyed by facts is a recipe for misery. Best give praise where it's due, old fruit :-)

      Yes if we both go up it will mean diddly next season who was 1st or 2nd. Knowing the championship as we do it will be very interesting with a manager like we’ve never had, all this possession à la the old Swansea way, seemed to work well for them? Will the Lincoln Warnock style do well also? They seem to win on 30% possession often.

        Lincoln’s problem will be keeping their side together. Our problem will be rebuilding.

          Bolton have 6 games in a row against rivals
          Stevenage H
          Plymouth A
          Stockport H
          Cardiff A
          Huddersfield H
          Bradford A

          Bradford have a far easier run in & should get at least 21 points, taking them to 85.

            If we can get a win on Tuesday then we play 3 of the bottom 4 all at home. Win those and we should be good.

              City will still get top spot imo as we've the easier run in out of everyone in the top 6. City have 3 of the 4 bottom clubs still to play at home plus the Bolton game at home. I dont see any problems ahead and as all season, it's time to enjoy the games

                  Lincoln have won the last 6 on the bounce. Law of averages say they have to stumble at some point.

                  Can't see it though.

                    Bradford have lost 5 of their last 6 away games (sole victory at Port Vale). Even if they improve that form to draw all their away games and win all their home games, we’d only need 2 more wins and a draw to finish above them.

                      I beg to differ. If nobody was annoyed by facts what sort of world would be living in? Acceptance of all consequences with no desire for change? No thanks.

                        The Law of Averages isn't of any relevance. Otherwise, they would be mid-table.

                          the law of averages as a colloquial term that has nothing to do with probability. In this context it means they can't keep winning forever.

                              People have been saying that every week for a few months now. They are 20 games unbeaten, won their last 6 with a goal difference of 16-1, top of every form table you care to look at, 10 wins and 2 draws in last 12 games, winning most games by 2+ goals. At some point you’ve just got to give a team the credit they deserve. They are absolutely flying.

                              Hopefully this overdue blip will happen soon but I wouldn’t bet on it.

                                that's why I finished my post with "Can't see it though" as I think they have found a winning formula for this division.
