I feel like 7 points could be enough. Charlton have a really tough run in, with only 3 games left, and Scunthorpe are an unknown entity, even to themselves.
Pompey will need to win all 3.
Agreed. Think we're reaching the point where the pack may start to thin out.
If Portsmouth lose at the weekend, they are five points behind Charlton a gap they're unlikely to close. Likewise if we win, we're four points ahead of them with two games in hand with them having two to play.
If Peterborough lose on Thursday to Blackburn they're in a similar boat to Pompey and would have to rely on others collapsing.
So, by the end of Saturday, we could be down to a three horse race. Scunthorpe's home form is inconsistent and 3 of their last 4 are at home. Charlton still have to face Blackburn next week and we have two games in hand.
Without sounding complacent or over-confident, if we don't make the playoffs from this position, even without Taylor we have really f*cked it up.
