I still think we will stay up, not necessarily because we manage to win games but because the others don’t manage to win their’s. Between now and the end of the season there are 16 games left between teams near the bottom, including us, and every one of those will either see one team lose or both teams drop 2 points.
I think we need 6 points to stay up, that will mean the Dingles need to win 4 games, Brum and Burton need to each win 5 games and Sunderland 6 from their last 10. None of these teams have shown anywhere near that form, in fact even with our shocking form we have still pulled away from those in the relegation zone by two points since Carlos left!!! Nothing guaranteed of course and it may come down to the last few games but we have to find those 6 points from somewhere.
I would like to think that over the next 2-3 weeks we will see 3-4 of our first team players back and that we can take 3 points off Reading at home plus a draw with Norwich and somehow find that extra 3 points from one win at either Sunderland, QPR or Hull. If we can do that we will be safe and can finally put this shite season behind us and find a way to move forward again.
