It's looking much better than for some time now. Also great to see Millwall down there, although they are one position too far up

that Barnsley home game is the most important game of the season0

Win our games in hand and we'll go up to 18th...0

Our position in the table is irrelevant, the only important thing now this season is the number of points we are away from the team in 22nd place.1

Provided we equal / better the results of those sides just above us of course when we're not using our matches in handCallumcafc said:Win our games in hand and we'll go up to 18th...

As @Callumcafc says, with two games in hand we can actually push up quite nicely.
We've got hard games ahead though, so I don't want to get too carried away.. it does put things in to perspective though!
However, Yeovil and Barnsley are huge games for our survival and for how the bottom of the table may turn out overall.0 -
One game in hand surely? Barnsley are the biggest threat.0
-
6 points ahead of yeovil, as long as we don't lose to them, they won't catch us.
Lose to Barnsley at home though, it'll become very tight, and the goal difference will narrow. That's a crucial game0 -
Leeds going in to admin could be good!!0
-
Having to play so many home games on our "distinguished" pitch should be something that we can turn to our advantage.1

Beat Barnsley and Yeovil, we're staying up.2
-
Mustn't lose to Barnsley. If the status quo is maintained after that one then I will be very hopeful.0
-
Win midweek 1-0, lose at the weekend 3-0, the magic formula to keep us up!2
-
We'd be 4 points clear of Brum if we'd beaten them at the Valley. All about the margins this game.
Still, them and Blackpool are dropping like stones, if Jose keeps these results going we might finish above them even if Barnsley complete the great escape.0 -
Not at this stage it isn't because there's no guarantee who the team in 22nd will be. We want as many teams beneath us us possible. Come back on the final day of the season and say that and you might be a bit closer to being right.Riviera said:Our position in the table is irrelevant, the only important thing now this season is the number of points we are away from the team in 22nd place.

It's now Birmingham's turn to face 3 consecutive away games - Doncaster, Middlesbrough and Forest.rikofold said:We'd be 4 points clear of Brum if we'd beaten them at the Valley. All about the margins this game.

You'd have to fancy them to pick up 3 or 4 points from that lot, perhaps?

Fascinating finale to the season.0

We have very similar fixtures on Saturday. Reading at home for us Brighton for them. We then are both at home again on Tuesday, but they have Burnley and we have Yeovil. If we can outscore them in terms of points in those two games, ideally 4 to 1, for example, then things will start to look significantly healthier. If we can go into our game with them with more than a 3 point cushion, the pressure will be all on them.0

Its going to be tough going making the playoffs now.1

Am I missing something or why does you table say we have played 37 and -20 goal difference and 3 points?LuckyReds said:Still 2 games in hand, one against Barnsley - but 3 points away from the drop.
Looking much nicer.

Birmingham are decent away. It's at St Andrews that they have problems.0
-
If they don't catch up any points on us Saturday, then next Tuesday we have a chance to relegate Yeovil if we win IMO.
It's in our hands.0 -
That's the MOST important thing.

We won't have a harder set of fixtures remaining in a group like that
Burnley home
Forest away
Derby away
Leeds away
And I doubt our rivals at the bottom would have
Add into that the fact we have also faced Leicester and QPR and a local derby against Millwank and an inform Bournemouth
All the teams around us would've looked at those fixtures and thought if we were going to be cut adrift and in big trouble then now was the time they had to pick up results
You could tell by holloways reaction to a draw that the ball was firmly in our court
Yeovil hit a vein of form that was unprecedented for their season
But never got over the line for three points in virtually all those games that they put in huge efforts
Barnsley getting the three points At Yeovil would've also thought that Saturday would be a huge ask for us and they were right and that tonight would've been a real tough fixture
What Jose has managed to do can not be underestimated to take the points we have in the hardest set of fixtures that have run virtually back to back all season has not only put points in the bag but absolutely demoralised the plans and words of every manager trying to get us back in the bottom three and every manger at the clubs just above us
I predicted we would win three of the 4 games in hand and that these 9 points will see us safe
Can you imagine Birmingham and Blackpool looking at us now and saying shit we really need to pick up results
And Barnsley and Yeovil Millwank saying if we can't catch them as they keep getting results then it don't matter what we do as we will be down
Their mgrs would've been saying we will catch them they will drop points in the end the players will lose belief and resolve will be broken8 -
Blackburn look decent0

Top post. Just to add that we now have Obika and Reza who can score and Ajdarevic and Poyet who can play through balls... Once again tonight we created more than ten chances.
Just a week until the first crunch game vs Yeovil.
The only risk we carry is if Wilson gets injured.0
