TrickyTrev Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 We’ll probably limp across the line. We are 8 points clear of the bottom 3 (9 if you include goal difference) and that means that 1 of those 3 would have to narrow the gap by at least a point a match between now and the end of the season. The 3 at the bottom are so bad I just can’t see that happening. After the international break we should be bringing Bannan, Hutch and Van Aken back into the side and that should be enough of a boost to see us over the line. Then it’s a summer of hard work on and off the field and we hit the ground running next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daavies; Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 If we can somehow find a win and a couple of draws from the remaining games i think we’ll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are as bad if not worse than the bottom 3. We have been so lucky they are so poor. Both Brum & Burton embarrassed us. The question is will our luck hold.

Rogerwyldesmullet Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 No idea why folk are so confident. It would be unusual if one of the bottom three teams didn't put a run together before the end of the season. Brum have got some good players and more to the point, we can't close a game out - which team exactly do we think we will beat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are the worst team in the league right now and will lose at Sunderland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one of them do, say Birmingham, then we are in trouble but so are the likes of Barnsley and Reading who have even more to do. sunderland and Reading are must wins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poite Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 (edited) Let's be straight with one thing. We are every bit as bad as the teams in the bottom 3. Its just that were all so so bad that we couldn't buy a win between us. That's what is saving us. They can't win and neither can we.

They, along with us, have to play each other. But do they have to hit promotion form? 3 wins and a draw (hardly promotion form)gets them 10 points. They are 8 behind us. I genuinely don't think we will get 3 more points this season based on our last 5 performances. Fulham home (L) Preston home (L) Reading home (D) Norwich home (L) Leeds away (L) Sunderland away (D) QPR away (L) Hull City away (L) Wolves away (L) Now you can debate Hull away but seriously tell me why you think we will win ANY of our remaining games (unless we get a new manager in and get a bounce of a win or two) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i used to be sc_owl Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Any other season we would be right in the mix. Unusual that there is such an abundance of poo near the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
