this weekend a couple of the previous contenders have fallen by the wayside SWANSEA WERE ONE tonight Friday 8th playing Norwich whilst we are unlikely to catch Norwich having them 2chasing points" will help our cause so a draw would be nice! Blackburn also slipped up in the last 5 and the hope must be they they beat PNE or at least draw! Forest and Hull to share the points best result as is hoped for the Sunday game Brum v VILLA A DRAW is the best we can expect …………….
The breathing space has evaporated and we are now quickly becoming part of the dog eat dog pack again. MIDweek fixture all 24 teams ...how does it look:- MIDDSBRO v PNE FLOREST v VILLA a pair of draws is needed although a WIN for MIDDSBRO wouldn't go amiss as Sat they are away to VILLA ! whilst PNE are Home to BRUM DERBY the main contender has a Derby against STOKE.... it makes the Tuesday result for CITY look like a winner takes all scenario! as derby and City have no game Saturday!

THIS WEEKEND ….30TH ......CLOCKS GO FORWARD … LETS HOPE CITY DO AS WELL! WBA V BRUM lets hope Birmingham come out fighting ..for all 3 pts nope VILLA v BBURN for quite a while were within 4 points of City then died off a resurgence please nope FLOREST V SWANSEA AGAIN another team that were in the mix and dropped away I think home win, but a draw would be helpful a win 10/10 for the swans nope STOKE v SHEFF WED CREEPING up the table SHEFF will need to get into play off's, get promoted to maybe avoid FFP so come on STOKE who again were within 4 pts of City well done Stoke Midds got Norwich …. City got Sheff utd … Derby Hull and PNE easy pickings PNE lost one down THIS IS A T O U G H weekend …………… AND THE TOUGH GOT GOING
They are ALL massive games now. If we seriously want to get to the playoffs and ultimately the Prem this is where we show the other teams we have the balls and we mean business.

Derby away to Brentford PNE host Sheff U Sheff W home to Villa that's one game where one team will drop 2 or 3 points or both drop 2 Middsbro away to Swansea, another tough game a Swansea win could be massive for City CITY home to Wigan who are fighting relegation, simply not a push over, City tend to struggle with this sort of team maybe a draw will be a good result! Florest and Hull look like winnable fixtures so pressure will still be on
