3 wins. 6 Draws. 15 points more, would give us 50. Probably just about enough?
True.Why? You're just not looking at the results of other teams around us if you think that.
Rotherham have just lost six in a row, Huddersfield have won 2 in 15 games, Wycombe are all but down, Sheffield Wednesday have won one of the last 6 games and it's likely Birmingham are going to struggle given the difficulty of their run-in between now and the end of the season.
We're certainly in a precarious position but as it stands it's very much in our hands.

How is your view one of a realist when it's completely irrational. We've just come out of the other end of arguably the most difficult pack of games in our season. We're still out of the relegation zone and showed that we don't look out of place against some of the divisions better teams.
What results did you expect in that run of fixtures?
Brush yourself off and look to Saturday. We're nowhere near out of this yet.
Wednesday and Rotherham are better than us over the last 10 gamesThis is exactly what happened in January, where everyone seems to think the teams below us are all reincarnations of Pep's Barcelona & we need to go on some crazy run of form to stay up. We don't.
By whatever measure of form you want to look at (3 games, 6 games, 10 games) Sheffield Wednesday & Rotherham are in worse form than us & most measures would also put Birmingham & Huddersfield below us too.
We just need to match what they do which given the runs of fixtures they have seems doable.

Look who they have played compared to us. Look at Wednesdays fixtures in their last 14 games, they are horrific.Wednesday and Rotherham are better than us over the last 10 games

We have 9 points in our last 12 games and are averaging a win every 5 it’s hardky unrealistic
We have only won 3 in 15 games.

The frustrating thing is that we could have almost been safe now if it wasn't for such fine margins. Our points return is absolutely shocking and we need to be looking at ourselves, not other teams I feel.

Wins don’t count if Biamou contributes to the goals.Eh? We have 12pts from our last 12 games?

We have won 1 in the last 9 games.
We have the worst PPG in the last 8 games out of the bottom 9 teams including all of those.
If Rotherham and Wednesday draw tonight, a draw for us Saturday isn't the worst result... Maybe I'm hoping that they will draw too much tbhWe really need a win this weekend - no playing for a draw.
You've intentionally picked 9 games of course as it portrays us in the worst light & includes what we all acknowledge to have been the toughest run of fixtures all season.
If you'd done 10 or 12 the picture is completely different.
Those last 8 games you refer to:
Middlesbrough, Blackburn, Swansea, Brentford, Norwich, Cardiff, Watford, Forest.
Have those other bottom teams had similarly tough runs?
Or are we still 6pts above the bottom 3 who now have much tougher run ins?
I was replying in the tone of the post that I replied to..
You're right we shouldn't be pragmatic about our current plight should we. Perhaps instead we should take your lead and all simultaneously wet the bed following a defeat?
We do look garbage though lets be fair.
The confidence has seeped out of us.
We cant defend and cant score, its not a recipe to be bouncing around the forum thinking its all champagne and blowjobs is it?
2-0 puts us above themGot to still include Derby in there too, beat them on Saturday & we'll be level on points.
Balanced out by QPR, Norwich, Derby??Looking at that ive concluded there was an extra 6 points in games there that we just pissed away
Watford - We had 5 clear cut chances couldnt bury 1, so extra 2 points
Birmingham - We put them to the sword first half but for some reason Robins buckled and made defensive changes - extra 2 points
Forest - No way on earth should that performace have ended in a defeat. We should have at least come out of that with a point, but again, mistakes and questionable subs. 1/2 points
Weve been our own worst enemys. imagine them extra 5/6 points now.
We would only need 3 more wins and a draw ffs. Boils my pis show naive both the team and Robins can be
