    What’s needed in the next 11 games?

    9 wins would give us 91 points and a pretty good goal difference. Rotherham have 10 games left and would need to win them all to beat 91 Portsmouth have 11 games left and also need to win them all to beat 91 Wycombe can only get 89 if they win them all Sunderland can only get 88 if they win them...

    Yes, 10 wins and 3 draws from 13 games isn't luck

    I can't see us losing 4 games. 6 wins should do it.

    21 points still needed yet, confident but not complacent is the way.

    The average mortality rate for people without pre-existing conditions in under 1%, if you are under 60 you can halve that figure. It's us 80+ year olds with all sorts of health issues that have to be really worried.

    Who do we play that are likely to be involved in a relegation scrap?

    City may only have got one point...

    Yes they always over read, by law they must not under read but can over read by up to 10%, modern cars usually over read up to 3 mph

    Last Day Of The Season

    I honestly don't think it will go to the last day from our point of view. A few "supercomputers" are predicting 2nd or 3rd spot with 79 to 80 points for us, but I can't see that we would only get 19 points from 12 games. That would be something like 5 wins, 4 draws, 3 defeats. I can see us...

    The Final Run In

    One good thing is we don't play anyone who needs the points to stay up, except possibly (though unlikely) Wimbledon on the last day. Other than that, the lowest teams we play are Shrewsbury and Blackpool, both currently 15 points clear of the drop zone. It's looking like mid 30's will be enough...

    The Final Run In

    Portsmouth are only 2 points behind Peterborough and have 2 games in hand, so in reality are probably higher up the table than Peterborough

    The Final Run In

    I can see the logic in separating out the top 6 as opponents, but Portsmouth and Oxford are as difficult as any other games

    Final automatic places

    Looking at Sunderland's games since Christmas (13 games) the only teams currently in the top 10 they have beaten are Oxford, Wycombe, and Ipswich. They are 11th, 13th, and 14th respectively in the last 12 form table. So I think it's safe to say Sunderland have had a relatively unchallenging run...

    That's all we need to do, and maybe a draw or two. It doesn't sound so bad looking at it like that

    If it's any help, I was certain we would lose to Portsmouth

    Final automatic places

    You only have to look at Portsmouth to see how easily it can all go wrong. 1 point behind us before we played them having played the same amount of games and on the back of 10 wins in a row in all comps (I think it was 10). now 3 games later, 7 points behind and looking out of contention for...
