Are We in a Genuine Relegation Battle?

[ekke287]

Out of the bottom 7, we have Wendy, Norwich and Pompey to play twice and we play Oxford, Blackburn and Swansea at the Lane in the New Year.

I don’t know which of those we’d beat though, which is a problem.

We’re at a point where we need 9pts from QPR, Wendy and Portsmouth, and we already missed that target.

Any hope of survival rests on us winning games consistently, say 2 wins from every 3.

The evidence atm suggests we can barely win one.

Southampton, Ipswich and Coventry were the only games played where we should be struggling as a stable Championship side, but we’ve lost those AND games to teams around us, who’ve been nothing special let’s be honest.

We’re a bad team with a poor manager and knee jerk owners atm. That never ends well.

The idea of waiting til January, like CW is hinting at, is ludicrous. We could, and probably will be, well adrift by then.

2 wins from 3 would put us on 72 points and a play off place

No Wilder did not get a call out of the blue he and knill knew in early April whatever league we would be in they were out

Not true

Long shot but we can do it.
I'm going to say Wednesday and Portsmouth.

Correction: We’re a team lacking many things required for the Championship with an untouchable manager and noob owners atm. That never ends well.

Our current average is 0.66pts per game to date. We have 31 games left.

Current rate equals 20.4pts from the remaining games.

Being fair and rounding up gives us 21pts, plus current 10pts equals us finishing the season with 31pts.

We’re at a point where even draws aren’t helping. We need 6pts from the next two or we’re out of it essentially.

Teams don’t lose over two thirds of their games and stay safe.

No idea either way, but he went from bouncing on tables to toys out around then...
