Good work on the stats but it doesn't work out like that as the top 8 will be playing each other so one win in one of those games will bring a 6 point swing.
For example we still have to play Bournemouth, Swindon, Brentford and Walsall win all of those and we will be much closer.
It is just such a shame we effectively sacrificed 17% of our season (three points from the first eight games).
To give some idea of what a difference-maker that was: if we had scored the same average of points for those first eight games as we have for the rest of the season, then Coventry would be in first place, leading by four points.

...and even fairly conservatively looking at home form under MR if we had performed anywhere near like our away form 8 extra points - level with Bournemouth!
