So... We're still not safe from relegation?

 

[Ernest]

Roughly 26 points should get us in the top 6 then ? 16 matches left so not unachievable but still relying on a couple of teams ahead of us blowing it

 

[Hamilton]

Nice graph.

We're all still in a relegation scrap bar half a dozen teams.

I've added our maximum potential finishing points (assuming we win our remaining 16 games!!!)

Really? All we need to do is get 2 points more than Reading to season end (and stay ahead of Ipswich etc). It's not like we've got a massive gap to bridge (we do if we're aiming for auto promotion though).

 

[KZNSeagull]

What's the highest points total for getting in the play off's? I reckon this season will be very near that. (am guessing between 76 and 80 by that graphic).

87 pts. You'd be disappointed with just a play off place with that amount when the average for 2nd is only 82!

3 points next Monday will sort that....

 

[Lady Whistledown]

3 points next Monday will sort that....

Which reminds me. I wonder how Ashley is getting on at Burnley. Doesn't seem to have got much game time yet.

I think he must have amassed about 15 mins so far as he only seems to come on with 3 mins to go in each game

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

How many points did Huddersfield get and miss out behind us and saints?
Also how many points did saints get that season?
I know it was league 1 but must be close to those records.

3 points next Monday will sort that....

What in the Cup?

Reading away to QPR this weekend if they lose that and we can then win our game in hand and then beat them at home (all plausible) we will be 5 points clear of them

 

[Thunder Bolt]

What in the Cup?

Whooooosh.

 

[dadams2k11]

I think this is a woosh?

 

[dougdeep]

Whooooosh.

What other game are we playing next Monday then? I was questioning where the 3 points were coming from.

 

[Frutos]

Ashley Barnes.

Wrexham.

 

[Shropshire Seagull]

Ashley Barnes.

Wrexham.

That was also the infamous night when the team bus was greeted on its return in the early hours by plod - making the "Jurys Inn" arrests

As well as that superb AB quote .....

 

[Gazwag]

Its interesting that there are only 14 points between possible relegation and a play off spot, that less than 5 wins in 46 games
