About time we had a separate play-off thread I reckon.
Rotherham are the only team at the moment who are pretty much guaranteed to be in the play-offs. The Shrews are still battling away gamely for an auto place, but sadly it's looking like it might just be a bridge too far to best the two big budget clubs. So that may be two of the slots almost sorted.
There's a bunfight going on between five teams for the remaining two places:
. Scunthorpe - been up in the top six pretty much all season. Hit a poor run that cost Alexander his job. Difficult to beat but finding it hard to win.
. Plymouth - looking odds-on for relegation back in November, now on a dream run of form. Have a game in hand but only one home game left.
. Portsmouth - hit the play-off zone back in December, then hit our customary poor New Year form. Bounced back well and squad now almost fully fit.
. Charlton - turbulent behind the scenes as ever. New manager bounce under Bowyer but not won in last three.
. Peterborough - another recent manager change. Form and results have been very erratic.
So lots of twist and turns left for the right to have your hopes raised and then crushed mercilessly. Bring it on.
