Are huge! Leicester and Cardiff at home and Birmingham away. If we can get 7 points from these we'll be well placed for the final push!
7 points would be great, but I'd take 6. Win both of these home games, and I'd accept a loss at St Andrews. We'd still be in the top 2, and every chance of still being top.
Tbh id probably be happy with at least 4 ponts from them. the 2 games at home will be awkward as bristol city have proven we can be beaten at home and we will get shown.less respect at home now. birmingham are just.coming into some form
We have nothing to fear. We can beat anyone at home as we have already proven. Leicester are nothing special, Cardiff are a decent out fit which will be a tough game, and B'ham have only just go going. But there is no reason why we couldn't win all 3 games. Realistically I thing 6 points would sound about right.
I'd be delighted with six points, and not too upset with four or five...even with Leicester playing abysmally, they are a dangerous side. Win against Cardiff and exit the West Ham game with at least a share of second and I think that we're serious favourites to go up.
We must wish Forest luck in their next couple of games, hopefully they put up more of a fight. Firstly to soften the foxes up, then, a trip to Upton park. Reckon Steve's job might be under a bit of pressure after that.
Birmingham are on fire at the moment, that will be the hardest IMO. 6 points would be great from these 3.
West Ham have Forest at home, Ipswich away and Millwall at home in the next 3 games. 3 teams that are struggling, but Ipswich are unpredictable and Millwall will be up for the derby game so you never know. Some good fixtures for them there unfortunately though.
What today's results do mean of course is that we will still be in an automatic promotion place when we ko against Leicester a week on Monday. Not only did we risk falling down to 3rd or 4th today, but we risked kicking-off against Leicester more than 3 points adrift of 2nd - and a huge amount of pressure suddenly on us. I'm guessing it's too much to ask that West Ham will lose, and we'll ko still in 1st. But no worries, just kicking off still in the top 2 is good enough.
West ham seem to have the luck of the gods on their side. More 1-0's than the Arsenal. If they could sign a Billy Sharpe, they would be made.
Time to stop worrying about other teams and just concentrate on our own form. Cardiff and M'boro have some tricky games ahead in the next month, which they are likely to drop a few points. And obviously a win against the blue birds would be a massive boost!
Leicester are there for the taking. They were dreadful today according to some fans on 606 and they have been for a while. And we seem to like playing Midlands clubs at the moment
Brum's win today says more about Millwall than it does about them. They're a top ten Championship side IMO, but not much more.
