Playoffs Are Possible, But Are They Likley?


Recommended Posts

Look - we’re all moaning we didn’t pick up points against Reading Millwall and Rotherham 

 

But - these teams above us will face the same, they’ll not win every game, they play some of the bottom half teams too and they’re fighting for their lives

 

Will those 5:6 teams above us win every game? No. If we can get 8/9 wins out of the last 12 then we’ve done our very best - I think we’ll lose 4, we just need to bust a gut and go for it.

Realistically its not happening but its great that there is a sniff, beat united and the season is alive and well and we have something to chase, bristol and derby are perennial bottlers and nothing special so you never know but it'll take something extraordinary.

To be honest it’s not likely. Not historically or statistically. Then again, Leicester won the premier league. 

 

Not going to get excited. 

 

The thing is though is we are starting to turn things round:  

 

players knowing their role

effort throughout 

clear plan of approach 

connection with fans 

confidence building

future direction 

leadership 

focus on positives 

 

long way to go and it can all turn sour but at least we are not fearing games.

No chance we're going to get there. We may be six points behind but given our dreadful goal difference, make that 7. 

 

Lets just win as many as possible and finish in the top 12, that'll be an achievement.

 

Also despite the points lost, lets counter it with the points gained. You could argue we were fortunate to beat Bolton, very fortunate to get a point against Leeds and it could be argued we were lucky to pick up points v Rotherham, Millwall and Stoke City at home.

It was an impossible task looking at the league but the topsy turvy nature of the league has presented us with a slim chance. It would require getting 30 points from remaining games but interest in season has at least gone into March. we can but hope.
