We just need to match the Brummies scores to stay up, if we don't ,don't deserve to stay up.

Part of me Hope's we dont appeal McRedcard's ban, he's becoming a bit of a liability.
Some games he looks great, but others he looks like he's going to do something crazy.

However, I'm still confident we will stay up.

we need mcfadz for the Wycome game as it is a game of contrition on the centre backs and he is well suited for that sort of fight.

FiveThirtyEight have our chances of dropping up to 17% from 10% before yesterday. Looks like they are pinning it as a 3 team battle for the drop.

odds of 10/1 for our relegation is still available
I believe this is very generous
if somebody is nervous around £300 for a league 1 season ticket, then why not have a £30 bet, and you either have a championship one for £329 (still good) or a free ticket for league 1

The way I see it is, we have 5 home games remaining,
Wycombe, Bristol C, Barnsley, Preston, Millwall
We need as a minimum, 8 points from those games and a couple of away points.
That should be enough, and an away win would obviously make things much easier.

Listening to a Blues journo talk about their situation on the Totally Football League Show podcast right now is interesting. Sounds like the players had all really fallen out with Karanka, with one even doing a celebration mocking him after scoring the winner last night. Will be interesting to see just how much their performance picks up now that he's gone as they don't have a bad side on paper.

Thats actually a good idea.

I remember contemplating betting on Leeds in the semi final in 87 to cover potential disappointment. My friends said they would dont do that and would blank me if I did . Glad I took there advice and did not.

He can come on in the second half as a sub. We don't have to necessarily pick him from the off to get him match fit.

The only way he gets fit is playing we can’t be seriously thinking we can stay up with Biamou who needs 10 Chances before he scores

I do think overall people have UNDERestimated the points needed to stay up. A lot depends on Rotherham congested schedule and hopefully that will be difficult for them but they are a reasonable side and personally I thought they hand enough in them to stay up this season. I only see a maximum of 8 points from home games

I would only feel confident staying up if we get to to 53 points. That's another 15 points, At least one away win is absolutely essential , I thought Luton would be that game. The other away fixtures are not easy at all. (Rotherham, Huddersfield, QPR, Stoke and Bournemouth)

Coming on after 50, 60, or 70 minutes, IS playing.

So you think Rotherham will get 20 points from 13 games? and Birmingham will get 15 points from 9 games?
And Birmingham have to play Rotherham.

Mental.
People seem to think we're in a relegation battle against Man City & Bayern rather than Rotherham & Birmingham.

You’re right, 3-4 games in hand does not equal 9-12 points for Rotherham...

Did exactly this with a £30 bet I won off a free bet at Cheltenham. Never hoped I lose a bet more. But a free season ticket would soften the blow very slightly

If we play like we did against Luton very slim chance of staying up - Same issues as per normal cannot put the ball in the net and the seemingly bad luck of hitting the post is happening to much to be bad luck – Defending is shocking at times – Luton who are no great shakes could have scored 6 quite easily seen better defending on a Sunday parks pitch – need to improve now

Biamou was a little unlucky with that first one on Tuesday. Had that gone in, it might well have been a different game. The worrying thing seems to be though, that we seemingly need to score first in games. Don't score first and the best we can usually achieve out of a game is a point.

As we don't create many chances anyway, going a goal down really kills us.

I really can't predict tomorrow. We should win, but I think Wycombe will prove very tricky and some of their crossing is very decent.
