Ok - 2 points from 6 games. We've been edging towards this for the few seasons now but I strongly believe we wont make it this season - surprises me as I expected / hoped for a 13th-117th finish - better balanced squad , of so so but possibly just good enough players for a "somewhere in the top half of the bottom half"
Table after 10 games is serious a guide to the season - there is a big danger our season will be over in the next 4 games if we get cast adrift
We have winnable homes Norwich Hull, possible point at Preston a stuffing at Brentford BUT we need 8 points from 4 games to give us a point a game and a 46 point season. That means we need 2 wins and 2 draws to keep alive of relegation dog fight hopes - trouble is pressure building and we are weak mentally
Meaningless stats from last season
Bottom 7 end September /first days October after 10/11 games - Bolton, Sunderland, Birmingham, Barnsley, Reading , Burton plus Brentford
Bottom 7 end season - Bolton, Sunderland, Birmingham, Barnsley, Reading , Burton plus Hull
So only 1 of the bottom 7 escaped - Brentford and 1 joined Hull
We really need a MASSIVE turn round in results to give us a chance of staying in touch , no wins by end September and we are probably doomed !!!
Big 4 games coming up - lets hope.....Urzzzz
