trev Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I'd take staying up on goal difference tbh. I've not seen anything which makes me think we will be aiming any higher than safety. But safety would be a very good season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helmut_rooster Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Yes, and playoffs if we can win or half the point fine on appeal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Cautiously optimistic, but I can't go as far as "confident" yet. Let's see where we are in a couple of weeks time after we've had a run against 3 of the weakest teams in the division, if we're on around +6 and off the bottom, hopefully even outside the bottom 2, I'll start to believe. If we drop points in those games it's going to start to look like a tough task as confidence will drop and pressure will increase the longer we're adrift. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think the people talking about top 6 are in full on dream mode! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't surprise we if the 12 point deduction was reduced to 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emilianenko Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Yes I do. Some average and poor teams in the championship this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChapSmurf Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I may have been in the minority but before a ball was kicked, and before we had finished recruiting, I had zero concerns about being relegated. I thought we would end up mid-table, and I guess that is most likely where we will be. Relegation wasn't even in my thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minesapint Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 For me it’s never been in doubt. As the summer progressed it was apparent that the change which has been long overdue was happening. After watching Saturday’s game the spirit and fight in the team is a marked improvement. Give them another few games to all settle in and I think we will achieve play off equivalent, which unfortunately will not mean a great deal because of the -12. However for future recruitment it is massive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveyboy66 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Yes and the seeds were sown when we lost to Fulham away after lockdown....before the lockdown we would have rolled over and got beat 4 or 5 nil. We didn't and tbh if it wasn't for a couple of goalkeeping blunders could have had a draw. What impressed me was that everyone worked their socks off and no one gave it up. We've built on that and it seems to be the bottom line for all performances whether we win or lose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owlinexile Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I think we will be fine. Even discounting the fact that there is a good chance that we won't be the only points deduction by the end of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the thought, but it would take overturning the point deficit to give us any chance of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthefish2002 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 If putting money on it would say we will stop up. Seem to have enough in us to grind out enough results but no going to be pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greengrass Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Tough game on Wednesday but 3 easier games straight after. Just hope there is no meltdown if we lose to Brentford. 10 points out of 12 would be very nice. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
