We will probably need 22-25 wins to make the playoff.

26-28 wins to finish top 2.

We heard you the first time 😉

How many do you need to get out of it?

24 or 25 by my reckoning.

Have we won that many games in the last three seasons?

Bloody hell, I thought you might have been kidding. But the answer is no. So we have to win more games next season than we have the past three combined.





I posted without double-checking but was fairly sure we hadn't. It has been grim for a very long time. It is true that comparing the top flight with the Championship is a bit 'apples and oranges'. Still, that losing mentality is deeply ingrained and will be hard to shake off. We will need to hit the ground running, learn how to be professional and close tight games out.

Easy....

A major change in culture must occur before we even begin to imagine winning the amount of games required to go up next year. Seriously, don't hold your breath.

We'll be screwed if we only manage 4 points next season!

If the five parasites are still here, no more than ten.

If they're gone, then more than 20.

Thinking with my head and, not my heart. If we don't shift the bulk of the current squad, I think we'll be flirting with relegation but, stop up by the skin of our teeth. If we get some decent players in, I think we could have a good shot at promotion but, for that to happen, we need a complete change of culture at our great Club.

Can we come back and answer this question on, say, September 1st?
