Two hard-fought draws with clean sheets point to a slight improvement in Albion's fortunes under Ramsay, but that elusive maiden win remains... well, elusive. The good news is that back-to-back home games this week offer us the opportunity to finally remedy that shortcoming. The bad news is that table-topping Coventry are our first opponents, fresh from steadying their promotion charge with victory against Middlesbrough.

Still, winless in their last eight on the road, the Sky Blues may not be the all-conquering force we might fear, even if they're buoyed by the return from suspension of Brandon Thomas-Asante and confident of an inevitable contribution from him on his erstwhile patch. The Albion injury list also gets no better from one week to the next, but if we can keep things tight the way we have in recent weeks, another point here would be golddust.

Charlton are the more realistic target if we're to aim for three points this week, currently sitting just three places above us. Is it must-win on Tuesday night? Perhaps, depending on how other results go. What's certain is that home draws aren't going to keep us up, so one way or another, from one place or another, the victories have to come.

If we don’t pick up a win (hopefully two) from the next three games, I honestly don’t know how Ramsay can survive. If we end up sacking a coach in March that we only appointed in January, then what a dog’s breakfast the club has made of this.

I honestly believe the next week or so will decide our fate.
Not expecting anything from Coventry so the games against Charlton and Oxford are in my opinion must wins. Leicester’’s new manager is a good appointment but their appeal against the points deduction I fear will go in their favour and they’ll be safe. Pompey are on a good run and have a game in hand, and Blackburn have also gone for an experienced manager to get them out of the mire.
So, not optimistic, don’t believe Ramsey is up to the task and although the fight shown in the last league game was admirable I don’t see us keeping that intensity up for the remainder of the season. God I hope I’m wrong.
