Snowflake Royal Er... 5?
Stoke A - D
Preston H - L
Hull A - D
Norwich A - L
Brentford H - D
Bristol A - L
West Brom H - D
Boro A - L
Brum H - D
I can see one of those draws being a win maybe two, but can't pick which, so Ill just go with our usual limp to the end of the season with no promise for 2019/20

Westwood52 . Knowing the fortitude of our lot we may put in a horror show of a performance.

So you're predicting 5 OR 7 OR 9 points!

No, I predicted what I predicted, I'm not interested in emulating your arse covering.

So you are predicting 5 Points. 4 Points from the next 8 games? Is that right?

Forbury Lion A caller to BBC Berks on Saturday made the (perhaps obvious) point. It's now an 8 game season and we have to outscore Rotherham to stay up.
Looking at the league table, that sounds about right. Ipswich are as good as down, Bolton are in trouble but it's Rotherham who look like the biggest threat to us staying up - If they put a run together and we don't respond, we're down baring any teams above us having a worse run in that us.
Goal difference may be something to consider.
30/03 Reading v Preston
30/03 Derby v Rotherham
06/04 Hull v Reading
06/04 Rotherham v Nottingham Forest
10/04 Norwich v Reading
10/04 Rotherham v Aston Villa
13/04 Reading v Brentford
13/04 Stoke v Rotherham
19/04 Bristol City v Reading
19/04 Swansea v Rotherham
22/04 Reading v West Brom
22/04 Rotherham v Birmingham
27/04 Middlesbrough v Reading
27/04 West Brom v Rotherham
05/05 Reading v Birmingham
05/05 Rotherham v Middlesbrough

Denver RoyalURZZZZDenver Royal That looks optimistic to me.
Not too hopeful we'll beat WBA, they'll be all out for Top 6 and will have new manager in by then (prolly Jokanovic?).
We'll beat Brizzle, at Brizzle, with them all out for Top 6?
May need to win at Stoke...
They’ll be shocks along the way though, we could somehow go to Boro and get three points (again hopefully they’d have cemented their spot by then), but who knows, that’s the beauty of the championship, anything can really happen, it’s why I much prefer it to Prem games
There could be shocks. But how often do we come up with one? When was the last time we beat a good team?
The reason we don't is because this squad has so many holes and flaws for the Champ that it's a crime.
We're a team of midgets in this league, and so we then go out and sign Baldock and McNulty to long term deals?
Ajayi has scored 5 goals in the last 4 games for Rovrum. Liam Moore wants to leave, so we give him big money?
We fawn over our Academy grads, but goals/assists? That's all our opponents care about.

I cerrainly agree about the physical nature of the side. A lot of us were critical of the summer signings of McNulty and Baldock. Why sign two small strikers? Swift may not be small but he is lightweight. Kelly is tiny. Moore is small for a centre half. Yet we started the season with these guys as the backbone of the side. Madness.

We`ve never been a big bullying team have we? only have to look at Cardiff to see where it can get you.

Hound Well yeah - we signed O Shea (6ft 3), Meyler (6ft 2), Ezatolahi (6ft 2), Walker (6ft 7), gave Meite (6ft 1?) a long contract and signed an aggressive FB in Yiadom.
This to add to first teamers Jaakkola, Moore, Ilori, Blackett, Bodvarsson who all above 6ft. From standing near Rino I’m guessing he is 6ft plus as well
As usual with Clement it wasn’t so much that he didn’t recognise the issue, it’s just that the options were either cheap and low cost or just not good enough. He certainly didn’t try to make the team ‘smaller’
