I know it's only in my dreams, but ... what if the game away to Watford in May matters, wouldn't it be nice since Millwall play Bburn and a draw could come handy.
🤠 Good night people!

If we won all our games from this point on, we’d end on 72 points with a healthy goal difference.
That is highly unlikely / almost impossible, but if we did do it, we do stand half a chance.
Millwall and Blackburn in 5th and 6th have 61 points so they would need a record of W4 D1 or W3 D4 from their 7 and 8 remaining games respectively to definitely stay above us.
The other teams would obviously need better records than that.
Anything less than winning out from hereon in almost certainly won’t be enough.

If Watford need a result & dont get it the only thing that will matter is when the current manager will be getting sacked!
Love us to still have a chance of something to play for but its just typical Stoke to end up 3 or 6 points short of the play offs, and look back at games like Rotherham when we could get the ball in the back of the net and it proved costly

We won’t win all our remaining games. It really is that simple.

It won’t do.
The season is over.
Sit back and enjoy it.

We might ask ourselves if we have any job taking part in PO games and winning them?
If we did we might arrive in the PL with half a team on contract and a bunch of mercenairies eager to offer themselves to us. The board will finally be able to spend their money on quality players but will be taken aback by how much wages have increased since the last time. Frustrated we go looking to see if Wimmer and his friends can somehow be coaxed out of retirement, so that we can at least field eleven men on the first matchday.
We fail to sign any and are instantly punished with the mother and the father of a heavy fine for not fielding an eligible team.
We might be better off not winning promotion just yet.

It’s not going to happen as 75 points are needed for the play offs
Forget it
