We are skinny by 2 points and home draws against Reading and Millwall would've seen as safe before the last game.
Agreed, there have been too many narrow defeats this season. We've been competitive in nearly every game, but so often come away with a narrow defeat. It would have been much better to have been hammered in a couple of those defeats, if we could have then ground out a couple of nil nils elsewhere.
Luton have the same number of points as us, but a GD 18 worse, which shows how inefficiently our goals (and goals conceded) have been spread around

You won’t be saying that if we stay up on goal difference.

But it's a waste being 18 better than Luton, 16 better than Hull and 10 better than Barnsley. I'd much rather have a similar GD to Luton but 2 extra points, as Wigan's deduction would mean we were safe already...
We’d be better off being one defeat in 11 games against the six teams around us than the top 6. That’s what’s costing us.
Agreed, the 2 1-0 defeats to Boro were awful results in particular. Boro would be below us if we'd drawn one of those games. If BOTH had been 0-0s, Boro would be in the bottom 3
