    I think all of our next 5 games apart from maybe Brum may be winnalbe I think we may struggle against Birmingham but maybe get a draw

    If we keep doing well I will try to, but otherwise I don't think anyone will be interested in seeing it.

    Seeing that we've got a relatively tough run in, if we want to be seen as top 2 contenders i'd say 11 points is the minimum for the next 5. It's a big ask but draws are no good against lower teams, i think i'd rather take 11 points than 12 if it meant not losing to Birmingham which i know sounds daft, but they're gonna be a major threat in the run in.

    Next 3 games represent a massive chance to evaporarte the gap to 2nd completely.

    Doncaster H 3 points
    Portsmouth A 1 point,
    Bristol C. H 3 points,
    Birmingham A 0 pionts,
    Brighton H 3 points

    I think if we come out with 10 points it will be a great result and will leave us well in contention even a top 2 place after the 5 games.

    I agree with 3 of your 5 John. Portsmouth should be a win regardless but IF rumours of a fire sale persist what sort of team and morale will they have by the 4th Feb ? I also think a draw at Birmingham is very much on. But yes anything upwards of 10 points from the next 5 games and a top 2 finish is deffo on the cards. imo.

    You can change it to Promotion Race if you want OLM.
    I'll try to stay on top of it (even if we get turned over by Doncaster), but if I miss any results please let me know.
