Ipswich need 2.17 PPG for the rest of the season to hit 87 points

Middlesbrough need 2.07 PPG for the rest of the season to hit 87 points

Coventry need 1.66 PPG

When I talk about teams in the same division in a massively simplistic good, average or shit kind of why I'm usually using us as the comparison. On that basis i don't think we have rivals, they are all fucking shite.

Need to change the thread title to rivals for top spot, and there aren't any.

I'm not getting cocky or ahead of myself, we might massively screw up. But at the moment, we're out on our own.

I think the only thing that can screw us now is injuries.
And they are starting your be a bit of a worry.

Get that but soon it’s really just BTA out of the side, and as I said elsewhere, other teams near us are going to get injuries too.

Just over a month till the cavalry arrives in January too.

Possibly Rudi if rumours are correct and EMC limped off.
Also, if the calvary arrives mid January that's quite a chunk of games away.

I am playing devil's advocate a bit here and presenting an overly pessimistic viewpoint!

Yes Rudoni injury again would be a worry.

Next game we would probably line up in a back 5 if so

EMC ran himself into the ground, Rudoni didn’t look injured. But yes that would be unfortunate.

Frank looked liked someone pissed on his chips in the post match with Gurney.

I mean, fair enough, but we have just won 11 in 12 so wonder if theres anything in these twitter virgins and their Rudi stories?

Let's say 93 points for automatic promotion.

28 games left - 50 points to get

Win 14, draw 8. That would give us the 50 points. That would mean we could lose as many as 8 games.

It does look all so rosy

The only thing that can kill is now is injuries.

The January transfer window is so important to us this season.

Losing Rudi for this tough run of fixtures is a worry but with 343 or 352 you would hope we still have enough to win 3-4 games over that period which would keep us top

Two teams other than us are not going to get close to 93 ffs. They’d need to be absolutely smashing it for the last 28 games.

Everyone shitting their pants about Ipswich (11 in 6 or 17 in 10) - they need to be doing miles better than that to get anywhere close.
