suddenly a 5 point gap between stoke and us now

 

Sunderland away and Cardiff away next two games I’d say we need four points from those two.
Pressures on

 

Hope the capitulation against Stoke doesn't cost us. Still not over that one. Like the draw against Sunderland 2015 that ultimately relegated us.

 

I’d take a loss at Sunderland and beating Cardiff.

 

yea, a bit like
its better to lose to sheff utd but beat stoke

but currently, take any points we can get

 

Portsmouth and Stoke winning and Cardiff drawing isn’t great for us.

 

Luton Plymouth midweek. If ever there was a game we need to be a draw.

 

Yep, exactly. The team have got to start pulling off unexpected results now or we get cut adrift and really are ****ed.

 

Everyone was pencilling in Norwich as a loss so that was an unexpected point. Get something against Sunderland and we can hit our good run with some bonus points.

 

A point or more v Sunderland would definitely be a bonus but I don't think everyone was predicting a loss yesterday, 40 out of 60 on here predicted win or draw. Not the biggest sample I know but I'd guess most would have had a draw as the safest bet.

 

Pompey doing OK at the minute, since they signed the no nonsense centre backs. If we have to beat them on last day to stay up I don't fancy our chances.

 

Perhaps, although I'm not sure how many of those 40 were wishful thinking rather than genuine prediction.

 

Just saw/heard that Hardie is out with a reasonably bad injury for Plymouth, that's a big blow for them.

 

So far I've been well in the camp of "we have enough quality to avoid the drop", but Cardiff feels like it could be a turning point - lose that and it's suddenly looking bleak.

 

Not very long go it looked like two teams were getting cut adrift at the bottom and we were in a battle with 3 or 4 teams for the final relegation place. Now it looks like those bottom two have closed the gap, 1 or 2 of the 3 or 4 have broke away from the immediate danger leaving us in a very close battle with 4 or 5 others with all three relegation places up for grabs.

This may of course be complete bollocks as I haven't looked at the league table for ages or studied the form of the bottom eight teams over the last 3 6 or 10 games.
