its only 6 points! NO its 7 points....THE QUICK FIX IS:- so we get off to a flyer and win 2 and draw 1 and sit on 29 points Sheff Wed must lose the next 3.................28 points .....cant see this happening Peterboro must lose 1 draw 2 (or lose 2 win 1)....................28 points Barnsley can win 1 lose 1 draw 1 (or draw 3)...............28 points so then we are out of the bottom 3 and stage 1 accomplished HOWEVER IT WONT HAPPEN LIKE THAT The next "3" games take us to 9th Feb and none of the bottom 4 play each other until 23rd feb when BCFC play Barnsley and( PETERBORO play Brum bottom 5) after that the bottom 4 have v each other 3 times in as many months.............that is BAD
Disagree if we can get into the habit of winning games again anything can Happen remember what happened when we went on that run the year before our L1 promotion from the relegation places? We almost reached the playoff places towards the end because the wins petered out. S O'D has shown he knows ho to turn teams around in the past look at what he managed with the shambles that was NF before they sacked him because he wasn't a big enough name.
It's complete and utter bollocks anyway John All we have to do is win more than Sheffield Wednesday do by 2 games and a draw over the remainder of the season by winning our game in hand and beating them we are only 1 point behind them. Beating Barnsley and matching their games over the season we finish above both of them. And because we won our game in hand we are level with Peterbourough. So over the remainder of the season not so bad!! If you look for a fast fix it's always harder to see
I really can't stand the negativity JGF, we are NOT ****ed at all - 60 points to play for and the players with fresh impetus, as they say Past performance is no guarantee of future returns Now stop trying to predict the universe and get your positive head on and lets change thhe atmosphere at The Gate...
There are Lies, Damn Lies and Statistics. And JGF2 loves a statistic (and a moan). So long as I see a better performance on the pitch over the next few games, a desire to win, a different attitude, then I am happy. No-one is promoted or relegated in January. QPR are in a worse position than us, but they are really positive about staying up - and the have to try and get points off manchester united and manchester city. I am going to take a leaf out of their book. Sing it with me JGF2 "We are staying up, I say we are staying up"
QUOTE] absolutely that is the crux of my comment, and the point being made is before we can push ahead of the others we need to catch them up and being 7 points from "being safe" needs the other 3 or even teams like Birmingham Ipswich Wolves and huddersfield playing bad[/QUOTE]
My apologies John. There were so many figures in your original post, you put me in a spin. I only saw the "that is BAD" bit. Hope you have a good day besides.
