    The final table prediction...top 6 or not?

    That was a ridiculous run of results. Just look at the last 8 games where we took a total of 4 points , 5 of those games were at home and the only one we won was against Leeds. We conceded 15 goals in those games, and without checking all line-ups I know Collins was in goal for some of those games.

    The final table prediction...top 6 or not?

    I think we will get around 70 points, whether that's enough remains to be seen. March fixtures Oxford (A) Stoke (H) Derby (A) Sunderland (H) Sheff U (A) 2 wins and 2 draws = 8 points April Fixtures Burnley (H) Portsmouth (H) Hull (A) WBA (H) Plymouth (A) Luton (A) 3 wins and 2 draws = 11 points...

    While the sky is blue - The Believers

    For a while they played it as the team came out instead of "all sing together" IIRC

    Frank or Mark?

    Yes that was a strange thing to do. In a weird sort of way it helped us supporters understand what went on behind the scenes, enabled us to make some sense of why it all happened, because at the time there was a lot going on with Viveash which didn't make sense. (assuming it was all true). But...

    Frank or Mark?

    I would be interested to know how you sack someone in a nice way. Some of us are a bit biased because of what MR had achieved, but in reality once the decision was made I'm not sure how it could have been handled better.

    This run

    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.

    Are we going to "shit" our way up!?

    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.

    Doug got it right

    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.

    The Run Ins

    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...

    Time to believe

    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.

    Time to believe

    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

    Premier league standard

    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

    Premier league standard

    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...

    Championship thread 24/25!

    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

    Championship thread 24/25!

    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...

    Transfer Rumour January transfer window

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

    Our Form

    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...
