Hit a brick wall

So another game gone, another chance to stake our claim in the play off places gone and another non performance in a half.

In my opinion, we needed 4 points from the Cov and Leicester games, but we have only picked up only 1. This now puts more pressure on us to pick up more points in our next 3 games, Boro at home, followed by Portsmouth away and Cardiff at home.

Massive game on Saturday now. I really do think it is a game we must be looking to win, and put a good performance in or we can wave goodbye to the play offs and possible promotion.

There is still a long way to go we got 11 games left and i think that 74 points should be the target for a Play Off Place i think 75 points would do the trick.

That means 19 points from 11 games which is a tough ask.

But dont forget we are on points per game looking like 73pts.

But the points per game prior to our last 4 games since Forest loss would have given 80 points from 46.

So while we have had poor form, we have great form prior and its not over yet.

We are 1 point off Play Offs and 3 from 4th.

All thats happened is we can pretty much rule out a potential Automatic Place.

The race for Play Offs is far from over.

Very true. We just need to get out of this slump as soon as and get back to the way we were playing, solid at the back and creating chances up top.
We need players like Murphy and Carr back asap!

Murphy has been a big miss i think he has been class this season, and had he been fit i and Ridgewell stayed then Ridgewell would have had a hard time getting us to drop Murphy.

Defence has been our strong point but its been a bit mish mash last few games, Spector can not defend anywhere near as good at LB as he can at RB

The same we saw when we used Kelly a few times at LB in past, he was totally different... compared to the decent performances at RB.

It isn't over yet but we do need to find some form, the Boro game is a massive 6-pointer now

I'm not too confident about the boro game they've been on a good run and are much better away from home than home them and with west ham best away record I believe? Another boring draw I predict!!

Just predicted our results and i recon about 19 to 20 points.

Again you cant really get them right but i do think we can still get 5th place myself.
