Just had a look on our remaining home games and these are who we have.
CharltonLifers I think we will be just fine, with making The Valley fortress and getting behind the lads, I can see us winning at least 7 of our remaining 10 games.
Bowyer will of course see it as one game at a time especially with the injuries we have but beat teams against the likes of Barnsley, Luton, QPR, Middlesbrough, Reading, Wigan and being optimistic Millwall as well, we have a massive chance in staying up.
So who's this player we are signing today.... Spill the beans 😉

I'd say looking at the games we'd be pretty happy with wins from half of them. Beating the other sides down there, Barnsley, Wigan, luton is essential.
How do you see us winning at least 7 of these games with our current sequence of results?
Currently on 33 points from 30 games and last season you would have stayed up with 41 stoke saturday is massive
But if we continue to average just over a point per game that gives us 49 plus an extra point for our awsome atmosphere and the crowd being the 12 man and all that we will end up on 50 well safe
We are again truly playing championship football next season
Fulham - D
Barnsley - W
Blackburn - Winnable
Luton - Winnable
Middlesbrough - Winnable
QPR - Winnable
Millwall - no comment
Reading - Winnable
Wigan - Winnable

The second has them staying up with 53, and us only safe by 1 point above Wigan!
Blackburn - Win, not easy but certainly winnable
Luton - Win, Luton really struggle away it should be
Middlesbrough - I'd take a draw here in honesty, if the real Boro turn up it will be a tough game. Although equally if they don't we can win.
QPR - Win , inconsistent but we should really be winning this
Millwall - I'd take a draw again, we never beat them so any points will be good
Reading - Winnable, again inconsistent but hopefully home advantage will see us through
Wigan - On paper its a win, but might depend on where we both are in the league could be a real edgy/tough game.
So firstly, the ones i predict we will win are not exactly a walk in the park. It probably summarises the Championship to a tee, anyone can beat anyone eg. we are more than capable of a sneaky away win anywhere.
6/7 is a tall order from the initial post, both draws were decent results and Barnsley was the key, as will the next 2 home games be.
It's a long way to go still, but im confident are back we have enough. As long as Taylor doesn't get injured, also ideally Cullen stays fit.
I think three home wins from Boro, QPR, Spanners, Reading and Wigan is a very realistic target.
That would give us 48 points before playing any away games... even two wins and a draw would result in 46.
Of course Bowyer will think differently, as we storm in on a 12 match unbeaten run into the playoffs.
PS: Isn't that what we did last season?
It's been such a bizarre season with all the injuries that the remaining home games are only winnable if our big players stay fit.
Mainly Lyle Taylor.
Thats how I miscalculated - Haha apologies Oggy
