The top 4 seem to over the hill and far away in some combo or other, but it looks like it could be lowish, with Blackburn sitting in at 5th, 4 points ahead of us with 12 defeats. We have 13 games left, for which I could foresee a return of 7W, 3D, and 3L at best, which would give us a 68 point finish.
What's been the lowest points tally to sneak into the playoffs, does anyone know?
And what's realistic/heartfelt (delete according to personality type)? |  |

I've already run one, but no one's forcing you to contribute, pal! [Post edited 14 Feb 22:43]

That poll was to gauge whether supporters think we can make he play-offs. This next one is how many points needed for 5th/6th.  | | | |

The man-kiss aside, what's your point? | |

A week ago Benjamin Bloom did a video on who is making the Championshil play-offs, and using the form of the last ten matches, we had a higher points number than all of the others in competition with us, with a total of 69.
Second were Norwich, Bristol City and Sheff Wed tied with 67.6. Now, I don't really believe this as we I can only imagine that a couple of teams with mixed recent form (West Brom, Boro) might start picking up a head of steam, but its going to be interesting, and also far lower than recent seasons. |  | | |

It's definitely shaping up to be the mother of all tussles for the final 2 play-off spots. Anyone from 5th to 15th is in with a shout. | | | |

And how many points to stay up? Let’s all remember where we were and the doom and gloom being spouted by many on this board (cough cough). It’s a free hit. Enjoy it |  | | |

I don't think we're ready to go up, but, damn, of course I want us to try! On our day, we can compete with anyone in this league, (and sometimes when it's not our day)! | |

I would say late 60's may do it this year. Normally you would need early 70's. |  |

We're three points plus GD behind and a game ahead. We could be 13th again tomorrow. But there's still a lot to play for. |  |

Which may work to our advantage, I'm thinking.
It's still looking a tall order, but Marti needs to target 8 wins from our last 13, plus a couple of spawny draws. Challenging, but not impossible. That might be enough. | |

I'm with Marti and am looking at each game as it comes. It's far more interesting looking at how we approach each game than speculating about what will happen over 13 games. | | | |

Can't we do both? As Marti himself says, the fans' part is to dream. | |

That's the spirit! Far be it for this board to be a haven for QPR enthusiasts with minds of their own! | |

Some bookmakers are still offering 50/1 on us finishing inside the top six, even after tonight's results. Fill yer boots before the traders get back to work tomorrow morning! |  | | |

March fixtures are tough. Come out of them with a couple of wins and draws and i wouldn't be unhappy with that. Although on our day I can think we can give anyone a game. | |

The upcoming fixtures against wba and boro are critical if we are to have any chance whatsoever. It would be typical of us to beat Sheffield United and Leeds but lose to WBA and Boro | | | |

We are in the mix for the play-offs, big month coming up......do well and we could get there but it is going to be 'proper' tough. MC and the players certainly think that they can do it and with their team spirit and togetherness it isn't all over. | | | |

Before yesterday with 14 to go I was thinking exactly two points per game is probably the minimum to sneak in. So 25 from 13 now. Optimistic in the extreme but plausible and relies on some huge performances in March.
Chances are we lose at Pompey and end up something like eight points off but it’s nice to dream. | | | |

Although 50/1 seems a touch generous this is a clear indication it isn’t happening, would need an extremely good run of results and with the top 4 all to play. |  | | |

If we can get to the end of March and still be 3 or 4 points off the playoffs it will certainly look do-able! If if if. |  | | |

At the very least, we want to see them give it their b5est shot. And, whatever Marti says, so do the management. If we were not interested in the play-offs, then why did we borrow Ronnie Edwards from Southampton? What's in that for us, apart from a play-off push? | | | |

70 - 72 points for 6th. Anything in excess of 60 is a good season for us | | | |
