    I unfortunately can see exactly why dickplumb has posted that.

    Yep, me too, unfortunately. The way we just hung on for last 10 mins v Bolton was very worrying for the next 4 games.

    Thought for a while with our lack of goals this may just boil down to how crap the others are.

    4 more points will probably do us from here as difficult to see Blackpool getting anything at Brighton or Wigan and if they don't we can lose the last game up there and still stay up, unless Barnsley go mad and win the last 3.

    That's about right...are there 3 more teams more crap then us?

    There about half a dozen other teams AS crap as us, it's down to fine margins who stay up and who goes down...

    If our strikeforce was only on a par with the number of goals scored as the rest of the teams in the bottom six we would be safe by now no question. We are the better of the teams at the bottom but with the worst strikeforce by some distance and we're going to need to be 4 points in front of Blackpool before we face them on the last day of the season or be ahead by 3 points with our goal difference 7 better than Blackpool's accouting for another possible 0-3 away defeat.

    I really can't see us winning another game this Season. I think it will be Massives- lose,
    Blackburn-draw, Watford- lose, Blackpool-lose. Sorry for being so pessimistic, but our goal scoring record is so poor I can't see where the goals are coming from.

    Are you forgetting Yeovil match. Remembered how to score then

    Blackpool beating us 3-0??? On their form, that is pretty unlikely!

    I can see a scenario where last game of the season a draw with Blackpool and Charlton may send them both down and whoever loses will be down. I am hope I am wrong but I just feel that we lost our "Get out of Jail free" card after that woeful perfomance against Barnsley. As for seeing 3 worse sides than us, no I can't see it (apart from Barnsley's performance and Birmingham at home and we didn't win. I hope I am wrong but when we have no creativity and no goals in us then the writing is already on the wall.

    which is why I said possible 0-3 defeat, more of an insurance policy if we had to stay up on goal difference ahead of Blackpool if they beat us.
