We need to pick up quite a few points over the next 5 because the fixtures in March and April look tough That said we’ll probably do better in the games where we’re not expected to do well?

I actually think we should pick up a bit now with Forestieri, Wickham, Windass and da Cruz available. But when you look at away games against Brentford, Bristol City, Swansea and Fulham to come in March and April I can’t see us winning more than one or two of those games. Home games against Forest, West Brom and Preston aren’t easy either. And until the EFL charge is settled we still don’t know whether we’ll be looking up or down in April. If there is no points deduction I’d say we’d need to win 10 or 11 of the last 16 games to make the play offs. Given we’ve only won 12 out of 30 so far it’s a big ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played 30 Points 43 Goal Diff +7 We are this season. Played 30 Points 43 Goal Diff +7 I know this means absolutely nothing but.... Nice fact but your last sentence says it all - it means nothing.

Hopefully loan signings will have a positive impact but really can’t see any chance of top 6 finish, let alone play-off glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) To be fair most of the teams this year are pretty rubbish, us included. 2 or 3 wins on the spin and you are right back in it. Even Derby have a chance if they get a run going. Edited February 6, 2020 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue and white Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 6 hours ago, room0035 said: Our next 5 we should be looking at 15 points all teams below us and winnable. Barnsley (23rd) Luton (24th) Reading (15th) Birmingham (18th) Charlton (19th) 5 wins from the next 5 - I predict we will be in the top 6 These are the games you have to win if your serious about being in the mix for the play offs. Anything less than 15 points from these games and we can forget about automatic promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
