Candidcamera Posted 27 March 2011 Posted 27 March 2011 Has anyone else noticed the number of games there will be between the contenders because the list now extends to 11 or 12 in with a shout ? This must be good for City if they can pick up some form. I don't think it will require as many points for this reason.
Dan Posted 27 March 2011 Posted 27 March 2011 Still majorly in our hands. Main reason being we've still got to play against 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th, the current four most important sides we need to drop points, IMO. A point at Middlesbrough isn't enough, it's winnable and I think we'll do it, 0-2. A point at home to Burnley, is also not enough, we need to gain three on them, this is our best chance to do it, they've still got Middlesbrough at home in a game in hand, beating them balances things out again (at worst). Failure to win this and I think we've buggered it. We really need shooting if we don't beat Palace, failure to win that and I'll give up regardless. Reading away, depends on our last three results, but we cannot lose this game at any cost, simply no way. A win, would throw us right up into it, if we'd won our last three. Forest away, I just cannot see us winning at, never ever do in the league, then again, they are far from unbeatable and I stick by my point, on our day we can hammer anyone in this league. Again, a loss about buggers it for us, but I think these are in a real bad run at the minute. Watford at home is a must win, may mean nothing by then but we have to win it, and we are well capable of doing it. The last two are both winnable as well, but who knows what it'll mean then. On our current form and manner we're losing these games, I just cannot see us making it, if this was after the Derby game for example then I'd say we stood a fair chance but our recent form is unacceptable, and the most demoralising thing about it is the fact we just don't look like we'll sort it, the problems are becoming obvious, we're relying on Kamara to produce the goods and Yakubu to sort himself out. If they don't, hello Championship again next year.

I dont think we need to win 7 out of 8 games left as some say, think 5 wins and a draw would be enough with other teams slipping up. Having said that not sure we will even win 5 with our recent form.
carterfox90 Posted 28 March 2011 Posted 28 March 2011 the way we played against norwich & portsmouth not a chance of play offs get used to it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wymsey Posted 28 March 2011 Posted 28 March 2011 Certainly hope that Ricardo has sussed out on how to catch balls from a cross, our strikers score their opportunities and that Gallagher's crosses are perfect (as we know he can) and doesn't go over for a goal kick... during this break. Then we will have a good chance to accomplish this aim, but its too late personally.
