If you extrapolate the last 5 results to get the next 10 results (just as good or bad a way as any other
)
Luton 34 + 2*10 = 54
Barnsley 34 + 2* 9 = 52
Middlesbrough 38 + 2*1 = 40
Stoke 39 +2*5 = 49
Charlton 39 + 2*6 = 51
Wigan 40 + 2*11 = 62
Hull 41 + 2*1 = 43
Huddersfield 42 + 2*7 = 56
Thus relegating Boro, Hull and Stoke!
I don't think this will happen, but Luton, Barnsley and Wigan have the best current form of all the strugglers1 -
Yup. And the other problem is that it is boring as hell to watch.The problem we have is our defensive isn't good enough to play that way.0 -
It's a complete waste of time trying to predict the bottom 3.
This is the most unpredictable league in my memory.
There's only one certainty and that is we won't beat Millwall or is it ?7 -
There is always one team that plummets in the latter part of the season, now, is it Boro or/and Hull to continue their drop, or do they have the quality to be able to stop the sinking ship? Thats the conundrum that concerns me, in that they probably both, on paper, have better squads than us, but, as we all know, that doesnt necessarily mean they are better teams.
One thing i do know, is that i dont want to have to go to Leeds on last day needing a win to survive. I just want to go to Leeds, see my old work mates,get the cigar out, and know i'm going to the casino after knowing that we are still in the Champs regardless.6 -
Has anyone actually seen Forest play well? Everytime I see them, they are utter garbage.7

Shows how bad this league is really.cafcnick1992 said:Has anyone actually seen Forest play well? Everytime I see them, they are utter garbage.
They've won 7 games since November and are still comfortably in the play offs.1 -

However, he has an interesting background, he's English, born to a Scottish father,French mother, and educated in America.0 - Sponsored links:

Really hope you are right but based upon recent performances and today it’s difficult to to see how this is going to be turned around. Add in the fixture list and we are grasping at straws.Talal said:
All hangs on next week for me. If we somehow manage to get above Hull we have half a chance as they're just as shit as us. Though I still expect Barnsley and Luton to pick up points and get closer to us.IAgree said:We are down - no way we are going to stay up

2 points in 11 games, conceding 29 goals.
Whichever side scores first next weekend will probably win as opposition heads will inevitably drop.1 -

It is the Charlton way that Maddison or McGennis will score the winner against us
And that Millwall will send us down0 -
Don’t give the ball to Naby, he may attempt a back pass into the net 😂oohaahmortimer said:

People keep saying that we do well against the better sides. Well we should be OK then because there are now 21 better than us.20

They might well have let in 29 (and scoring just 9 in the process) but we haven't scored in 3 games. We lost to a poor Sheff Wed side who lost 5-0 today. We just don't score enough goals, which mainly stems from the fact we dont shoot enough or have enough attacking threat. Until this changes we will continue to huff & puff but not put the ball into the back of the net.Chris_from_Sidcup said:

Hull will win next week because their manager will tell them to get at us......and ours will tell our players to keep it tight.0 -
Can’t quite believe this. Who would of thought 2 weeks ago we would be in this position. We have no luck whatsoever last year Millwall survived with 44 points (40 would have been enough). This year could be 50 plus.

Agree. Hull can just follow the same game plan every team has followed for the past three months against us. And we still have never found an answer to it.golfaddick said:

The relegation trap door is well and truly open now, yesterday’s performance was utter shit. Being at home we should have taken the game to boro as they were there for the taking but we do not have a clue how to attack teams as a team, there’s no support in attacking situations and no idea what to do with the ball except lump it up top and hope we get a break..the formation just doesn’t work as we don’t have the quality, Bowyer needs to take the team back to basics, change the formation otherwise we are heading in one direction.

Not really true. We'd be much better off if there were 3-4 awful sides.oohaahmortimer said:

2 years ago 42 points would've kept you up. 44 points was enough for 5th bottom.
Last year 41 points would've been enough.
We have 39 points with 9 games to go and looked totally doomed.1 -
Hull have let in 16 goals in last 5 games,9 in last 2, scoring 6 themselves (including 4 in one game v Swansea).
They will likely be in a darker place than us confidence wise right now.
Another positive is they have Magennis, who cant hit a cows arse with a banjo, let alone score any goals (cue hat-trick now), plus we may have both Lockyer and Sarr back.
The only hope we have is to at least get a draw against them next week, and after maybe hope we can nick a win from somewhere, when Hull cant- and they go into freefall.
Another possibility is getting a win, and getting Wigan sucked back into it. If we do win, that is going to be a dagger to the heart to Hull even deeper than the dagger we were dealt yesterday.
Really clutching at straws here though-A big ask with the way we are playing right now.
