The 'Run In'

Our remaining home league games:

26 Feb - Sheffield Wednesday
8 Mar - Brentford (Of course, it will be moved, but leaving here for now)
12 Mar - MK Dons
15 Mar - Nottingham Forest
2 Apr - Bristol City
16 Apr - Wolverhampton Wanderers
23 Apr - Leeds United
7 May - Rotherham United


After Friday, that's a bloody superb run. I think we'll remain unbeaten at home for the rest of the season.

Remember, we have picked up away from home, only lost 1 of the last 6 and won the other 5.

 

I've tried to forget about Preston & Rotherham away! But it's Blackburn at home that still pisses me off! The last F'king minute of the game & we give Rhodes a free header!

 

The stattos reckoned we had more than 20 shots on goal that match but only managed four of 'em on target - the game should have been dead and buried long before Rhodes header.

 

Yep!

 

Some of those will still have their eyes on the possibility of the play offs, some will be desperate to avoid the drop. Nothing is ever as straightforward as it seems, especially at the business end of the season. There are no easy games unfortunately.

 

Spot on - there'll be some hand wringing and arsehole nipping before this season's over; the weak willed won't be able to handle it.

 

By that logic nobody's run in is easier than the others.

 

And that nails it for me.

Anyone thinking anyone else has an easier run in is bonkers. And wrong.

 

Those teams that have nothing to play for with 3-4 games left are the teams you want to play in the last few weeks.

 

Cardiff had nothing to play for last time we went up but gave it a right go.

 

I meant in the sense of mid-table teams.

 

Yeah but we always make things hard when they shouldnt be

 

There are no easy run ins, anyone that thinks there is either can't have a very good memory or they haven't seen a full season played out.

 

Well, I started this possibly a tad early.

However, it's now becoming a (possible) looming disaster...

 

Hmmmm.....Derby threw away a 3-0 lead with 7 mins left.
Borough's manager has took his ball home and no one knows wtf is going on.
I'll take our run in, thanks.

 

Our run in means nowt, unless we actually get the points...

 

Part of managing is supervising a squad of players - Jimmy Karanka has just showed himself to be not up to the task. Ditto Clement at Derby.
All hail Steve Bruce.

 

Friday night will be interesting SB V Steve Agnew.

 

Aggers made a **** choice when he left us for them.
Now he's got his nephew in and it's still going tits.
Rhodes has only played in 4 out the last 8 games, their form has dipped since he came in.

12 points out the last 30 for them now.
Hopefully they won't parachute Big Nige in and we will put them out their misery on Friday night,

 

Boro losing at Charlton is a right bonus how ever we have got a lot of improvement needed ourselves, the fans can play their part this week and the lads have to respond
