5 of the next 7 games all against teams just above us in the table

Other than Brighton, who we play twice in December, we've got:

Villa (A) 4 points above us
Ipswich (A) 3 points above us
Wolves (H) level on points
Barnsley (H) 4 points above us
Brentford (A) 4 points above us

I think we'll have a much better idea of how we are playing as a team after those games. Realistically 10 or more points would be a good haul as these games are bound to be tight affairs. Paradoxically we might stand more chance of getting points against Brighton than anyone else, as they will come to attack like Huddersfield did.

8 points would be excellent.

I'd take 7 points.

I think we are better off playing teams above us. Warnock seems to be able to up his teams game. Not saying we will, but we are capable of getting points off all those teams.

I think we're going to need more than 7 points out of these 7 games if we hope to get into the safety of mid-table...

And of course if we win a couple of the first few then by the time we play the others they may be below us, and with City that's always a cause for concern.
