I am looking at the nine teams above us and think we can overtake Blackburn, Bristol City and possibly Boro in the table by the end of the season but the others will be difficult to jump above for me. Even Forest who are only above us on goal difference will have big boost from the appointment of MON & Keane in my opinion.
-
Swans and Blues drew 3-3,!! so stay behind villa in table.
Let's keep up a gap and moving forward shall we ?

Derby dropped points. Good.
Lets hope more do too. We still have a faint hope of getting that second spot if we go on a super "duper" run... -
Still technically possible to get promotion or a play off place but it's looking more and more unlikely - disappointing but I think it's time to start planning for a tilt on the Championship next season
-
Closer to the Play Offs than before the kick off.
-
Mad we're only 14 points off 1st despite winning once in about three months. Last season it would've been more like 30 points.
We've missed a big opportunity this year given how much weaker the teams at the top are. -
Closer to the Play Offs than before the kick off.
Yes, but still adrift after a succession of " winnable ( according to some
games"
Personally I think there is too much anticipation of a massive upturn once Grealish is back - we have what, 16 games to play - plenty of points to play for but we will need a really impressive set of results to get us in a play off spot - 6 clubs have a game in hand - so potentially we are 7 points behind at the minute - I'm trying to be positive still but I just can't see us getting enough wins .......if Tammy gets injured where are the goals coming from? - any one else think Smith is not going all out for a play off spot? I am impressed with those still believing and remaining firm in their belief that promotion is achievable ... based on the recent return to " Bruceball" Smith has got his work cut out to up the ante ........ -
Beat Bristol at home and it's 1 point.
