    Basically our terrific home form is masking our horrific away form that quite frankly stinks Rick .
    If we win every home game we will need to either draw all our away games or win at least 1 (one) in every 3 (three).
    I am still not convinced we have improved sufficiently away from home to make the final push.
    Ironic that Neil was unbeaten for so long when he came in and that was the metal needed to go up especially as the play off legs were home and away.
    In conclusion if we haven't addressed our away form and start beating teams like Burton on the road we won't go up.

    Our away form for the season is currently 4 wins, 4 draws, 8 losses. If we matched that ratio over the next 6 away matches we we'd win 1.75, draw 1.75, and lose 3.5 of those. Let's say a possible 2 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. Our current away form over the last 4 matches since Brentford is 1 win, 2 draws, 1 loss. If we maintain that form for the last 7 away games we could take say 2 wins and 4 draws for 10 points. We'd then need 18 points from our last 7 home games. Neither of those possibilities are a given, but 8-10 away points is a reasonable minimum target for us if we are to make the play-offs. I actually think we can better that if we maintain our current form, but time will tell.
