TodwickOwl Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 So what can we look to achieve from the remaining games in the run in - if we can keep the tempo up from last night and our squad remains fit Derby - W Brentford - L Forest - D Bristol - W West Brom - L Swansea - D Preston - W QPR - W Hudds - W Fulham - L Middlesborough - W 6 wins, 3 losses, 2 draws for me - finishing on 64 points. Can’t see us catching that 5th or 6th place now - the odds are stacked against us and would need a dreadful run from Brentford, Preston and Bristol - can’t see it happening, would make a nice change to finish the season as strong as we can.

Guest Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Amazing that after that run of form, 2 wins in 12 and less than a goal a game some people are still thinking about the play offs. I need some of that what some people are drinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knock 12 points off that and we might just scrape by, knock 21 points off that and we are relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean? We finished strongly under Bruce and Jos. It were the rest of them seasons that were total flipping gash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

striker Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 It's a tough run in, I'm just enjoying last night's win at the moment. TBH, as long as we smash Boro and send them down on the last day, that'll do for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N0rtherner Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 You're right about that L to Fulham, we got to tank that match if it means Fulham can catch up to Leeds on autos :P As for draw v Florist, I'm sure that them on promotion chasing form well aware of their 4-0 drubbing at home, they're not going to be easy at home. Hopefully we could put that to good use and get a sneaky counter-attacking win, but I'm concerned this could be an L rather than a D. But then again, those 11 games can be anything, all of them, nothing's ever set in stone in this league, not for us and not for any other team either. West Brom and Leeds slipping up their 10 point leads with losses to bottom teams previously, although they've restored some of that lead now, due to others chasing them slipping up (us most importantly).

109Waddle Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Anyone know when the EFL have to make a decision re a points deduction for this season, surely there has to be some cut off and then deduction applied to next season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
