    Blackpool away seems to be the last of our tough games for a while. Our sequence for the next ten league games is:
    Blackpool - Away
    Sheff. Wednesday – Home
    Peterborough – Away
    Derby – Home
    Millwall – Away
    Brighton – Away
    Charlton – Home
    Blackburn – Home
    Bolton – Away
    Birmingham - Home
    I think we should be the favourites to take 3 points in all of these games and none of the other teams in the top six have an easier run.
    The lads have worked hard to fight through the difficult Christmas period and now they've earned a chance to establish City in an automatic position.
    COYH!!

    P'boro was a bit of an exception though. In general we've been pretty consistent at beating the lower sides. We do always seem to lose away at Millwall, I'd expect us to win all of those home games though.

    True and we're always a much better underdog than a favourite so that suits us. <ok>

    Littlewoods built an empire on our ability to make predictions :emoticon-0112-wonde

    A summary 23 points would be brilliant, but I do agree that we might just do better.

    One game at a time, folks, one game at a time!

    We now know we have better players than most of the rest of the Championship. We've proved that and you can tell by the way other managers talk about us and behave towards us. Now it's just a question of keeping a steady hand on the tiller (which we certainly have in Steve Bruce) and the Good Ship Hull City should reach port safe and sound.

    They're all gonna be tough. Millwall is always a tough place to go to as are Brighton and Blackpool and Peterborough will be a typical banana skin. A game at a time lads.

    2. But looking at that, us and Cardiff could really create a gap between us and 3rd. Having said that, I don't know what Middlesbrough's next 10 look like.

    No easy games in the Championship (except Leeds at home) don't like using cliches but you've got to take it one step at a time

    My brain is a well oiled machine, well oiled with alcohol over theses Xmas holidays anyway!!
    Seriously if we can get 8 wins from those games we must create a gap from third place.
