I see Swansea and Stoke drawing, other than that I'll go with jjamez's prediction. The win against Wotfud being as much hope as realism to be honest. If we go in front early enough (whether it's the 1st minute or the 91st, I don't care as long as we do) then I think we could do them again. If we go behind ..... wasn't Saturday only our 2nd point of the season after going behind?

Having said that - not one of our last five opponents actually played like world beaters for 90 minutes this weekend did they? Some of them couldn't even do it for 45 minutes.

We are on 32 so likely need at least 2 points, preferably 4 or more. No reason not to take the 3 Blues and the Gooners on. only the lads from Smoke-on-Stench have a worse goal difference than us and it won't get better by losing 1-0 while sitting in our own half for 85 minutes. We might as well lose by 2 or 3 and go for it because I don't see Smoke getting enough points to equal our current or projected total anyway.

and another thing ......

in each of our last 5 games, the bottom 8 have won 5 games between them and only 2 in the last 3.



It's not impossible but it's highly unlikely any of us will go on a 2 points a game league winning (over the season) run of form, other than maybe Palace who have finished their run of games against the top lot. (jjamez pretty much has that covered too).
