NorthernOwl Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 As a bare minimum we probably need at least 8 points to have a chance of staying up. That means winning at least 2 and probably 3 more games. On paper that's looking like a big ask. However Sunderland obviously will have nothing to play for and the same could be true of Blackburn if their next 3 results are decent. West Brom will also likely to be saving themselves for the play offs. So there may be opportunities in games that look tough on paper but might not be so hard in reality.

lukeyswfc Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 I always thought if we took it to the last game we will have done well considering the pathetic first 18 games. I maintain that. However for the first time in a while I think we will be down before then with Hudders battling it out between themselves Plymouth and maybe Brum for the last one.

Every season a side at the bottom when fighting for they lives will pull a rabbit out of a hat and beat a top side in the division. It happens, but to other teams, never us.

Our record against thse better teams this season is woeful and I can't see it changing against such as Norwich and West Brom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nothing else, 9 of our 11 wins this season have come against teams currently above us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An old mate of mine used to say, we’re that unlucky (or hopeless) we could dive into a barrel of t1ts and still come up sucking us thumbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Plymouth will win at Rotherham and Huddersfield will beat Millwall so QPR becomes a must win game. After the last 2 away games I've lost the confidence I had and I think we'll get 4 points from the remaining 6 games. Hope I'm wrong but yesterday was pathetic on so many levels and you at least expect a relegation team to be fighting for their lives. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mus Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 5 hours ago, Devonstrix said: Norwich aren’t THAT great on the road. They’ve only won two away this year and have dropped points at Blackburn and QPR. They’re under pressure too with Coventry just behind them with a game in hand. Don't say that. Teams who haven't won all season beat us! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
