Think possitive they have only won 5 away and their 2 games in hand are away.Their away games include Watford .Southampton,and most of the religation threatend clubs 1 just being a local derby,Home games include .Millwall ,Brum and Middleboro,and they are 11 points behind with a far inferior GD.
Enjoy the ride.

Tricky, isn't it.

Birmingham's owners are genuinely odious in a way that Wrexham's aren't, but Wrexham just feels a bit more egregious.

Plus there's the utterly nauseous fawning over them. Salford never got the same brown-nosing for buying their way out of non-League. Perhaps Gary Neville should have appeared in more shit superhero films.

I did laugh last year when they played each other and some wags dubbed it 'el Plastico'.

I'd much prefer Ipswich over either of them. Much prefer them.

I might have done, tbf.

I did feel like it a bit after the couple of results preceding it.

Football fans are always reactionary, though some are worse than others.

I don’t know how but I’d totally missed that Leicester appointed Gary Rowett as their new manager. Some fall from grace that.

And there goes the problem.

Predicting before a season starts is a fools game. Let's keep this polite.

I predicted we would finish 2nd to 4th. I was a fool. I predicted the Southampton manager wouldn't be a good choice. I was a fool. I predicted Leicester would have a hard season ahead. I was a fool. I predicted Ipswich would run away with it. Nobody disagreed but I was a fool. Middlesbrough sold most of the players that scored their goals so I thought they would struggle. I was the fool again.

Just because we get some right it doesn't mean it makes up for those we get wrong. Hull? I had them near the bottom. Today is where they are not going to worry us but it has taken nearly 3/4 of the season to know that.

Predictions are just that. Predictions. I know I thought we would be in a strong position but that means nothing. If football was as easy as that the bookies would be skint and we would be rich. Leicester would have got relegated 10 years ago instead of winning the Prem.

That Ipswich result is so massive: even if they win those two games in hand, they're still 5 points behind us and 2 off 2nd. And with the fixtures piling up, its a big if. The pressure is really back on them now.
