It's becoming obvious now that we do have a top 6 squad. Forecasts now for 6th is 68 points. So another 20 points should give us a good chance. No guarantees but looking at our remaining fixtures, 20 points is well into possible territory.

We didn't lose over the 120 minutes and only conceded 1 goal so there was lots of opportunity for either vik or Gus to conjure up some absolute quality out of nothing. I accept we were unlucky to Gus went off injured.

Batch is the right word. If you ask for a sausage roll you get a sausage roll if you ask for a corn cob you get corn on the cob There is no confusion with asking for a batch.

Since Boxing day it's 7 conceded in 11 league games. Leeds and Norwich being the only teams to score more than one. Watford, Cardiff, and Sheff W. Being the other 3. It couldn't be just luck could it?

I live between Leicester and Coventry, so would never refer to us as City. As an older person I was taught not to abbreviate words so it's always been Coventry or the Sky Blues with me.

There are 11 teams on that list who all have a chance of playoffs. Personally I think Preston and Millwall are too far behind, (even though they have a game in hand) particularly so if they draw tomorrow. Lets see how many of each of those play other teams on the list (including the top 4 who...

We usually do well against Sunderland and Middlesboro. It's also time we beat West Brom, we always did OK against them historically. Preston is a worry, They are not far behind us in the form table.

In the last 12 games (measured at 4, 6, 8,10,12 games) we haven't dropped out of the top 4. Won 7 of the last 12 and lost only 3 with GD of +6

This is it exactly, I wish people wouldn't post rubbish as if we would win the league if we got promoted. A number of our players are as good or better than some of the recently promoted teams' squad

It's clear by the team selection yesterday that Doug has not demanded a cup run this year. Simms and MVE didn't get on the pitch, yet Rodrigues and Bassette did. Bidwell not in the squad (maybe injured?) Torp got 30ish minutes. I don't think we were too bothered by the result. All in all we were...

Because West Brom are 4 points above us. I think it's better to be 4 points behind 2 teams than 7 behind one team

Results this coming week are crucial for us to stay in contention. West Brom play Sheff W tomorrow, need that to be a draw or Sheff win. On Wednesday West Brom play Blackburn, and Middlesboro play Sheff U. With the other 3 teams one point above us having a game in hand now we will need to beat...

If I'm correct he failed his medical, and then we decided to take the chance anyway.

17 points in the next 10 games is well achievable, we have home games against QPR, Preston, Stoke, and away games against Oxford and Derby, in those games we should take a good haul of points. We also usually do well against Sunderland and Sheff W. Preston don't bother me, just another bogey...

Or they are in advanced talks with someone and they don't want to risk him getting injured.

At nearly 30 he will be thinking about life after his playing career is over. He can learn a lot on the coaching side of things.

One of our major problems year on year has been we have had no quality in depth. Now we are starting to get there. We don't need to fit all our quality players into one team, they will all play a significant part.

I don't think 3rd parties are allowed to own a player's contract but I can't see anything wrong with a 3rd party investing in the club.
