Maybe a Wolves win and Fulham draw would have been icing on the cake and an extra slice ! however the likely 8 is fast becoming "likely 6" and I believe the last time will be on TUESDAY when 47 points is the safety from then on in it could drop to something like 43 as an aside Sheff Weds a few comments on the league programme .. how well they are doing! 37 of their points are from teams in the bottom 12 only 16 from teams in top 12 ( that's normally 12 or 13 in top half don't use goal dif ) ..
47 points is still the target to stay up this weekend City play their 4th away match since JP/WE and LOST 1 WON 2 a draw would be good! according to my table we are on course for 47 even should we lose . . . . Blackburn play MKD... I HOPE THIS WILL BE A DRAW .. ..
Well done the management team, nice to see you exceeding my expectations we are now 10 pts ahead of where we ought to be for survival ... based on the f*** and S*** method footballs answer to lewis and duckworth method!...... quack quack ..

JUST HOW MUCH did we sacrifice for that pig headed 3-5-2 pre New Year ... in 12 games we have picked up 19 pts .. converted to the season = hovering outside of the top 6... in defence maybe we did lack the players/right players .. but before Junior, and the likes of Tommo Ode and Mathews we had turned the corner ... to survive at least IMO
not to despair, Hull had to come good after a dismal run, and one of the disadvantages of the "break" it breaks momentum .. some teams have bounced back on the up some fell off the trampoline of success ... with 43 points instead of 35 ( my target to get us to 47 points) we are still 8 points ahead albeit with 3 or 4 extra teams having joined the fight!

OR WERE WE RIGHT TO ! IPSWICH game, could say Juniors influence was "being in charge" so previous 31 games at 1 pt per game would have given us 46 pts .. Junior managed to get 1.4pts per game, not bad for a start a 60 point season ...
