That just shows how remarkable our form has been since then

[Sgt Fulham]

9 points of the playoffs. I thought that would be almost impossible to reverse. To have that sealed 5 games before the end of the season. Incredible. Automatic promotion would be nirvana.

This really does put the impact of our run into context. Thanks for sharing. It is also interesting that some posters (apologies I cannot remember who ) were predicting that Bristol City and Sheffield United would slide away - which they have - so congratulations to them as well !

[FFChris]

Also shows how remarkable Millwall's run has been.  At this stage they were probably looking over their shoulders as they were only 6 points out of the drop zone!

Slightly off topic, but there are no players with 20+ goals this season (currently, with 2 left to play). Bobby Reid of Bristol City leads with 19. Unusual, I would have thought. I tend to think that the teams that do well in the Championship always have a 20+ goalscorer in their ranks, but in fact Wolves, Cardiff and ourselves have all shared the goals around the team.

And Bobby Reid isn't even a striker.

Sess and Mitro are both probable 20+ goal players though. Just that Sess played half the season at left back and Mitro only came in February.

[Steven Ageroad]

Also shows how Reading and Leeds have dropped down the league. SHAME.

We have been magnificent to do so well, Millwall have done pretty well too.
Teams at the bottom have been consistent, with Sunderland showing little sign of recovery all through the season, that surprised me.
