After 36 games Bournemouth were 7th on 58 points. That means they got 25 points from their last 10 games. That's 8 wins and a draw.

Football League: Four things you may have missed, plus some non-league drama - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35678750 The story here is that play stopped for an injury to an opposition player and play was stopped. When play restarted the other team's player went to kick the ball back to...

If we are dominated by Swindon I think that will prove we are just a mediocre midtable side. Been happening far too often lately. If we can win and put in a strong performance to boot, then just maybe we are heading back in the right direction once more.

Exactly. What we need to do is keep on winning. Win 3 or 4 in a row and maybe we will be back in with a good shout, but if we win one, lose one we are going absolutely nowhere. Next week we have to build on this and it will give us an insight perhaps to just how good we now are.

Not even Mrs. Eakin.

I think you mean regain rather than retain.:) I think Barnsley will get something at Fleetwood and I wouldn't be surprised if Bradford got something at Wigan. I think we will still be outside the top 6 cone Saturday.

End of the season it will just say city win, 3 points though.

Okay, just as a guide, here is how the 6th place panned out, with 36 games played as the starting point. We are obivously on 36 games now. Last season. After 36 games. 1 Bristol City 37 80 2 Preston North End 35 69 3...

Switzerland because my trains aall run on time, or because my cheese has holes in? Or maybe because I like to yodel in the bathroom? My own thoughts? Well, Murphy is a confidence player and it's clear he has been low on confidence. He has therefore been out of form. When he is on form he is a...

Yes, we can. TM said so yesterday. I would be more inclined to play Stephens at left back and move Ricketts to the centre. That will then allow Lorentzson to come in. Stephens has played left back before.

I may be wrong, but I kind of get the feeling that you don't like Jacob Murphy, but do like Jim O'Brien. Many apologies if I am misreading the situation.

Did you see Bury yet again!! Talked on the show of woeful defending and Sunday League, schoolboy error stuff. They have some really, really big problems in their defence, as bore out by our 6-0 thrashing of them.

I predicted 7th pre-season. Will be gutted now if that's the case.

Probably that's what he meant, he was a hero for Blackpool! ;)

Chesterfield who finished 6th had 51 points after 36 games. That means they earned 18 points out of ther last 10 games. Obviously 69 points has been the lowest ever total for a 6th place team and it is usally around the 71-74 point mark.

Yep. I think we won't make it. Said that the minute we dropped out the top 6. More than happy to be proved wrong, but I just think it is too big an ask! All we need to do now though is concentrate on one game at a time and keep trying to win games. Who knows, maybe it will be a low total...

Never got the MAF loathing. To me he hasn't set the world alight, but at the same time really hasn't been that bad and nowhere near the level of rubbish people have been staying he is.

To be fair, Grendel actually said pre-season that Wigan 'would walk this league.' Hardly done that have they.

Walsall in 4th place (chose them because they are on the same points as Gillingham, but have a game in hand) are 9 points behind Burton on 62. For them to get to 83 that is 21 points. 7 wins from 11 matches, or 6 wins and 3 draws. Really cannot see them achieving that. It's still early days...
