Certainly more 'doable' than 9 on the spin...with Dingles and Millwall the next 2 up. Depends whether your bottle is half full or half empty...

Fast Forward Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 2 hours ago, HarrowbyOwl said: To get where we need to be at the half-way point we need 9 wins and a draw from the next 10. Any less and we'd need to average well above 2 points per game in the second half of the season, which is a big, big ask Your points required projection looks alarming if you assume we are still aiming for the top 2 Mr Harrowby. Most of us I think would now be content to finish 6th or above, so the usual 73-75 point total is definitely achievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine how empty it'll feel with anything other than 6 points from the next 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is relying on other teams to flounder as well ... long term wise .. i can't see it happening. At present, based on performances, there is no chance in hell that we will string a running run together ... I mean, 10 game winning run .. fóok me ..

Guest Quist Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 (edited) My take on this to get in contention we need 5 wins in next 7 games. Should add that is for play offs. It would require exceptional form for automatic promotion. Edited October 26, 2017 by Quist Further explanation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but to get to 90 points from 16 where we are now we'd need another 74 points. That's an average of 2.24 points per game over the remaining 33 games - that is some run of form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubleo Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 (edited) Interesting graphs. The trouble is we had 4 winnable games (or maybe 10 points anyway) to get us back on track - Bolton, Derby, Barnsley, Millwall. So far played 2, lost 2. It's going to be a hell of a turn around. Not impossible but wow it would get the old blood pumping around again. Edited October 27, 2017 by doubleo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flat Owl Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 This is a slow motion worm - 36 weeks compared to the 3 hours 20/20 cricket - folks giving themselves aneurysms!

As such we can still make that mark with 2 wins in the next 2 games. Oh Dear - its getting harder to believe and I ( really want to believe).
