Top 10 results in Division 2

Leeds United - won against Middlesbrough (2-1)
Millwall - lost against Burnley (1-0)
Ipswich Town - won against Peterborough United (4-1)
Coventry City - won against Crystal Palace (3-1)
Blackpool - won against Hull City (1-0)
Nottingham Forest - won against Barnsley (3-1)
Derby County - lost against Brighton and Hove Albion (1-0)
Middlesbrough - lost against Leeds United (2-1)
Cardiff City - lost against Portsmouth (1-0)
Crystal Palace - lost against Coventry City (3-1)

I think that is the top 6 almost out of reach for those outside now.

a brave fight from Wigan, but the likes of Essien, Cavani, Falcao, Luiz and Kompany were too good...

No shame though, i got close to a draw...

10 shot on target and not one goal. Not a rare occurrence at all, I know, but my feck is it annoying.

Think these results mean Peterborough are relegated from Div 2.

Next set of results see 4 of the playoff teams play away while Blackpool play Boro at home.

I wouldn't be shocked if Div 2 is decided by goal difference y'know :lol:

Of course after I get relegated I finally start winning. 2 wins on the trot, too bad I got relegated.

Division 2 table update:


Peterborough relegated and go bottom of the league. Will be very cruel if Millwall miss out on the playoffs as well as Middlesbrough. It is unlikely due to goal difference but it is possible.

All hope is not completely lost for me. If I win my last two, and Millwall lose one of theirs, we're level on points and it goes to GD or the result in the other game.

Or am I being too optimistic:nervous:

You need Millwall to get 2 points or less in the remaining two game and then you need to win both of your games. If it comes to GD he'll be ahead.

Think the top 6 is set in stone now, its the fight for 2nd which is wide, wide open.

Just noticed that for the first time this season I've won 3 games in a row.

I think the top 6 will stay the same until the end of the season but 2nd to 6th could be any order.

I know:( Also, Leeds is my last game, which is a pretty much guaranteed loss. I need a miracle:(

Man up. You've got a great chance of winning against me. I won't make it easy for you but it is still possible.
:lol: Of course its possible, but the chances of Millwall getting only two points/getting hammered in one match, along with the chances of me winning my last two matches, are slim. There's still some hope, but not too much.

My end of season form is something to be confident of though(apart from losing to bottom place:(). Hope to be there or there abouts next season again.

Inserted the results of the last meetings between the side though they won't be that relevant. I think Ipswich will do enough to seal 2nd. You've all got decent fixtures left apart from Blackpool who has a tricky game against Middlesbrough.

Aye, my conclusion was Ipswich have it, Coventry remain 3rd and I may shift up one position to 4th.

Who knows though, Barnsley could be my heroes!
They could be. They've had some great results this season.

MD07: Derby County 0 - 0 Barnsley
MD08: Barnsley 2 - 1 Leeds United
MD09: Blackpool 1 - 2 Barnsley
MD24: Barnsley 2 - 2 Middlesbrough
MD27: Leeds United 2 - 2 Barnsley
MD32: Barnsley 4 - 1 Crystal Palace
MD34: Cardiff City 1 - 3 Barnsley
