75 points required last season for top 6

Interestingly from the table on 15th March, some teams had played 2 to 3 games more than others, but points at this stage look very similar to last season.

In the 21/22 season when Forest were promoted they were bottom with 4 points after 8 games, we were bottom with 6 points this season after we had played 8 games. https://www.royals.org/tables/180921.php Forest were 9th on 15th March of that season, one place above us, so you could say the...

They had a good win yesterday but prior to that they hadn't won in a month. Mustn't underestimate them but they are nothing to be afraid of

Unless they can find a massive upturn in performance / results they are going to be out of contention by then. Wins against Norwich and Luton would be good, can't see it though on current performance but you never know.

Vik has 6 assists to Akpom's 1 From a team point of view, just as good

If we are going to catch anyone Luton looks the most likely. They play Sheff U, Sunderland, Watford, Millwall, and Middlesboro. Watford and Millwall have easier run-ins though

Need to win 6 of these 4 home, 4 away Hull (H) Wigan (A) Blackpool (A) Stoke (H) Swansea (A) QPR (A) Reading (H) Birmingham (H) Plus probably need 4 points from these 3 Watford (H) Blackburn (A) Middlesboro (A) Can be done but difficult. Would have an outside chance on 72 points but in reality...

does his contract expire in a few months?

If the idiot insects hadn't wrecked the pitch we would in all likelyhood be pushing for auto's right now. With Vik, Gus and hopefully Callum with us next year who knows what we can achieve given that we hopefully strengthen in the summer. Even with £20M for Vik we couldn't guarantee buying...

There are a number of poor teams in this division, most of which we still have to play. 3 points is 3 points, let's hope we can replicate this against some or all of those.

It's probably one of those fluke results where everything Stoke touches goes in. Can't see them suddenly replicating this result on a regular basis going forward.

MR's team selection now making sense

Sunderland imploding at the moment, we have gained 7 points over them in a week. Just shows how quickly things can change

doing our goal difference good as well

Especially when you consider this https://www.royals.org/tables/011022.php

Could be another enforced change that works massively in our favour

He seems to be getting that cool confidence all good finishers need

I think the team selection is along the right lines, we are not going to be in any relegation trouble and we are probably one injury to a key player away from our season being over. Bidwell admitted that tiredness in the squad is an issue on Thursday

I think people forget, we were 15th mid January, at that time Vik had about 18 months left on his contract. If we had sold him, we may have been relegated, such was our form back then. That alone would have cost us about 6M. And even if he sees out his contract we have him all next year. What...
