Well would you bet on 3 of those sides beating Swansea, which was your original point?

As I said, and you seem to agree with, it's what we do that gives the best indication of future games, not what other sides may or may not do to each other.

I'll bring Stephen Hawking in on this, totally agree the end game is how we perform, if it was that easy we'd all be millionaires and the bookies broke.

My main point was, I could see Swansea being beaten by at least 3 of the mentioned teams, the Swans beat us easily today, so, on that basis I don't think this will be easy by any means, the Everton game is massive, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if we got just 1 win in those 4 games.

Everton (H) Win
Wolves (A) Draw
QPR (H) Win
Newcastle (A) Lose

If we keep the faith with our 4231 and don't re-introduce the likes of Heskey then I think the above is possible.  They're certainly the sort of games that we'd expect points if we do not end up in a relegation battle.

Anything from 3 to 5 points at best:

Everton - draw or lose
Wolves - draw or lose
QPR - draw or win
Newcastle - lose

Everton: I think the poor home form will continue so we'll be unable to break down Everton whilst remaining open to conceding at set pieces, so would be happy with a draw.
Wolves: they will be up for the game more than us and it will be a hostile atmosphere. Wouldnt at all be surprised if we get a player sent off and lose by a penalty decision.
QPR: We desperately need a win and it seems we are only capable of beating the few clubs below us at VP, and it will be a must win fixture by the time this game comes about.
Newcastle: Demba Ba could have a field day if current form is anything to go by.

...and thats me being realistically optimistic!

It all depends which Villa side turns up on the day, but Wolves have had it over us lately and Everton are always dangerous, only QPR am i reasonably confident about, 4-5 points at the most.

I wouldn't be confident about any of them, which is just wrong really, but then I thought we'd beat Chelski and lose today, so perhaps not! QPR will spend this month, whereas we won't, and it might make a difference! Not good, not good at all!

Everton (H) Win
Wolves (A) Win
QPR (H) Draw
Newcastle (A) Loss

7 points for me. Think we'll smash Bristol Rovers, take confidence into the next 2 games, then ruin it at home to QPR.

On paper they're all 'winnable', but fuck knows how we'll play. 

I'd say 6 is the minimum we should be getting and 8 would represent good form.  9+ is nose bleed territory.

agree with most of points on here, i have not a clue which Aston Villa will turn up on any given moment. Anything from 2 to 10 points for me, as long as we beat the dogheads (make my life hell round here if we lost) and show more consistency at home are my minimum requirements.

4 I think.  We're getting dragged into the relegation mix.
