Seeing as these sort of threads pop up here I thought I'd do one before Kippax wakes up.
If the play offs are still an aim we need to wake up, realise we now have a very good team for this level given who we're signing and go out and actually win some games.
When I mean win some games I don't mean just win one game and then go back to drawing and then losing meekly as we did over xmas.
We need to win a game on a Saturday...then scrap our way to an away win on the Thursday and then win another game on the Saturday.
So far this season that's been beyond us.
Our next 10 are:
Brentford (A)
Forest (A)
Ipswich (H)
Newcastle (A)
Derby (H)
Bristol (H)
Rotherham (A)
Huddersfield (a)
Sheff Weds (H)
Rotherham (A)
Probably our toughest sequence of games this season. In this run we play only two teams who are mid table with little to play for...the rest are either top 6 contenders or fighting relegation.
I think we need 20 points from that lot and we need to start beating some teams above us.
Even if the gap is still 3-4 points off top 6 I'd be fine with that as they'll be I think 7 games in April.
What won't be acceptable is something like winning two and drawing 7 or 8 but that's been our problem this season, we just draw too many games.
Looking forward to it anyway....far too early to be writing off the season.
