I know what you mean but teams that still win when they aren't playing well generally do pretty well. I think part of it is our expectations have risen dramatically.Yesterday's win chipped away at my skyblue 1/2 glass full outlook! We did well but I was feeling a bit panicy towards the end, not had that feeling until now. Long may the run continue thoughi keep looking out for the teams that can put a decent runs together and Bristol City look good
No team has scored more goals than CCFC (34) at this point in a Championship season. Even if we failed to score on Friday, we might even hold the record for 13 games too
Sheffield United H draw? Hamer is out injured. Other than O'Hare they will be poor and he is too lightweight for our defence. Their defence is shockingly bad. 2-0 up after 16 minutes last game and still lost. Great OG by Tanganga though11 games to half way - 18 points keeps us on 2 points per game - something like the set of results below looks reasonable
Wrexham A Win
Sheff U H Draw
Stoke A Lose
WBA H Win
Middlesbrough A Draw
Charlton H Win
Ipswich A Lose
Preston A Draw
Bristol C H Win
Southampton A Lose
Swansea H Win
Southampton have seriously underperformed their xG mind you, their form will turn soon.Sheffield United H draw? Hamer is out injured.

Lose to both Ipswich and Southampton? They've only won 6 games between them out of 23. A combination of 30 goals for and 30 against. They would both have to vastly improve to have a decent chance.
When they sack Will Still that Southampton will turn it aroundSouthampton have seriously underperformed their xG mind you, their form will turn soon.
Could, will and might.Southampton have seriously underperformed their xG mind you, their form will turn soon.
Well its happened .
I firmly believe we will be promoted this season

Exactly how firm are you?
Weve played 9 of those 10 games i mentioned .I think thats a reasonable place to sit at right now , the next 10 games for me are on paper pretty tough but thankfully right now with GD we have some buffer
At what point will people believe we can genuinely do it ?
For me its this , Xmas day top 2 coventry city will be promoted

I couldn't give a fuck if we come across as arrogant and presumptuous; it's not going to make the blindest bit of difference to the outcome and it's great fun to revel in the extraordinary season we're having. It's not far off a hundred years since we were top at Christmas, so I'm unlikely to experience this again in a hurry, and perhaps never again. I'm enjoying it, even if some of you can't seem to.How can anybody make such definite statements, especially about Coventry and the championship like have any of you watched football before
It'd put us in a good position but absolutely nothing is settled in December, its statements like this that can make us come across as arrogant and presumpcious. Like Lampard said enjoy it, but don't expect it all the time!
And the best thing is it's reality and not arrogance.I couldn't give a fuck if we come across as arrogant and presumptuous; it's not going to make the blindest bit of difference to the outcome and it's great fun to revel in the extraordinary season we're having.
