Sorry, I'm a little confused. Can we not make the play offs now then?
If we assume that teams in the playoff positions are going to hit a bad run then there are four teams better placed than us to take advantage of it.
That assumption is a big "If". Dave Jones as usual spoke sense when someone described Leicester as "the form team." He said all the teams challenging Cardiff were form teams.
Yes it is possible that Leicester could get to the playoffs. It is then 3-1 against us getting promotion. I hope we get promotion but it is a poor bet.
IMO Top would be far w*s*r to tell Sven we will put that money toward helping you get the team you want in the summer. The best time to buy players is during the close season. It could be argued that the best time to loan players is toward the end of August.
Sven has done brilliantly in difficult circumstances; now I hope and expect Top will give him the money to create his team and aim for automatic promotion.
