    Looking ahead if we can beat Bournemouth at home and get January out of the way with no injury problems we still have home games to play against..

    Watford
    West Ham
    Sunderland
    Boro
    Swansea
    Burnley

    Five out of the bottom eight all winnable with a couple of players added in the window and a lively atmosphere.

    There's a slim chance of points on the road
    Against Palace, Leicester, Stoke and Southampton.

    Get this window right and hopefully the manager has a positive impact we might just be able to get out of the bottom three?

    The key is getting the window right.

    Out of those 7 teams so far we've only taken 4 points in the reverse fixtures and between these games we've likely got some spankings from top half teams......we'll need some ****ing turn around in our fortunes.

    Let's HOPE we get it <cheers>

    I think by early March it will just be a bottom 4, the ones that are there now. So 4 teams battling for 1 spot, which will be a real test of character.

    The season starts on Feb 25th with Burnley at home, only Hunter away and Sperz H of these final 13 games are 'unwinnable'.
    Rope a dope in our corner until then, then come out windmilling big style.

    Watford, Palace, Leicester, Boro, Burnley, us, Sunderland, Swansea, and Bournemouth will all certainly be in and around it. The only ones I could see pulling clear would be Leicester and maybe Watford if they click, the rest will all have large patches of bad form. Bournemouth have an incredibly thin squad and might start to struggle a bit. Watford haven't won in 10 or something silly, they've been surprisingly bad. Leicester will almost certainly be fine but they're walking the line. Palace don't seem to have improved under Sam but they'll go on a run at some point probably. Burnley have been over-achieving but are certainly catchable. Boro have scored as many as us so if we tighten up defensively no reason we can't catch them. Swansea seem a basket case but who knows what Clement can do, and ditto for Sunderland. All in all there are plenty of teams who could be bottom 3 or could shoot up, I'd suggest there are reasons we could go on a run as well.
