You could say the exact same about blues or Rotherham. What's the point in being a football fan without hope?

Well those teams have the evidence that they can score goals and win games.

I don't see your point as also we've shown that we can also do that at times (admittedly not often, but neither have blues and other sides around us) .

So if we lose 7 and draw one you’ve got us staying up?

No, what I’m saying is that this will be the key game which decides the outcome of whether we stay up or not.

Highly unlikely. Struggle to see a win at the moment. 8 goaless draws maybe

Weve seen city teams play wank until 3 games to go then pull it out when we looked dead and buried .

Can't write us off yet , but we do need to find some form
Click to expand...

It's the lack of fight that is concerning.

The current form table would probably see us finish below Wycombe

You’ll stay up this time, next season will be a relegation season if you still with your current manager.

I don't agree. It all comes down to money, and with being back at the rIcoh then if we stay up it's possible that SISU might just step out of their breakeven mantra. Otherwise, not sure any manager could keep us up.

Would have been happy if we'd ended the season one place above relegation, as that's the money Robins has, and if we go down I'm still happy for him to lead us for the start of next season. But it's difficult to argue against the form book and it only seems to be getting worse. So, think we're going down.

I think looking at our re ent form of not being able to score and now leaking goals I think we will go down based on the performance of both Bhm and Rochdale. Never mind the fixtures the team look divoid of ideas and confidence however I still think MR is the man to take us back up if we go down and deserves at least another season

We need to win three games or get nine points minimum looking at our home games they are all against mid-table teams still difficult though could be worse, our four away don’t fancy much from Bournemouth or Stoke and a must not lose v Rotherham and hopefully Huddersfield safe by the time we meet. It is in our hands.

Yeah, we won't get 9 points going for draws and are most likely to concede and lose. Best form of defence is offence and all that. Go for the win every game, play 2 up front at the very least.

They play Saturday, Tuesday, Thursday though. Us being the Thursday game. They will surely be much more tired than us.

That’s exactly what it is, faith. Zero evidence to suggest that it’s true, just blind belief that it’s going to happen.

Surely not being in relegation zone going into April is evidence of a chance of staying up rather than going down?

That argument has never really come to fruition against other 'tired' sides I'm afraid.

Need to rely on others to screw up, but they seem to be stepping up to the plate I think relegation

Ultimately the price paid for gifting points to Forest in both games, letting Wycombe off the hook, conceding comical late goals on both games against Middlesbrough etc etc. Simple answer as to why that is-ain't good enough.

Rotherham didn't against Millwall

I was fully expecting them to pick something up on Friday and they lost.

Pretty sure we ended up losing a game this season to a side where most said 'they'll be tired' from a fixture backlog.

I don't think so barring Rotherham having an utter disaster in their fixture pile up.

Not THAT sequence though.

No-one plays Saturday, Tuesday, Thursday do they?

Meh. A win on Monday changes a fair bit but I lost faith after Wycombe, there'll be another hammering at Bournemouth before we go to Rotherham too.

They play QPR on the Tuesday, so they are probably going to rest key players.

This is going to sound as silly as a bottle of chips, but you need Rotherham to beat Huddersfield next week. If they don’t beat Rotherham and yourselves I can’t see them picking up more than 4 points.

If the team behind us didn’t have multiple games in hand, one of which is against the worst team in the league that we couldn’t even put away.
