Either that or he's puffing on some seriously potent skunk.

Watford are not in great form either, Rotherham beatable, and then Warnocks Huddersfield!

Warnock is doing it again, all the doubters are being proved wrong, really tough fixtures and he has them 6th on recent form, they'll escape relegation too!
It's because he cares too much.Quote:

How many points between 40 and 50 have you hedged your bets on now?
48 should be fine. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a bit less, a few of the bottom teams play eachother. So some are guaranteed to drop points.
Reading v Huddersfield
Reading v Wigan
Wigan v Rotherham
Wigan v Blackpool
All the teams below us still have 18 points to play for. I won't be happy until we're mathematically safe. We could easily lose the next three games. We need to beat Huddersfield and Rotherham and hope that Burnley have absolutely nothing to play for.
I thought about 6 weeks ago 48 would be just about rightQuote:

Sunderland on Monday game could well be a game for nothing.
It won't happen but this is how it could go:
Rotherham are way at Norwich who are on a run and are on the fringe of the top six;
Huddersfield have Blackburn at home; somehow Blackburn are still 6th with a game in hand so plenty to be serious about;
QPR can't win an argument at the moment and go to WBA who, surprisingly, are just 5 points off the top 6 with a game in hand;
Reading, now in serious trouble, must go to Deepdale where Preston are in 8th - 2 points off 6th place;
Blackpool must go to Luton where they can expect a spanking from the Hatters who are 3rd and in great form;
Wigan entertain the Swans, are bottom of the pile and have the biggest goals against record in the division.
City, who must feel pretty good after scoring 3 away goals, entertain Sunderland who are 11th with just one win in the last 5; the Mackems also drew at home yesterday conceding the leveler from a last minute penalty which must have extinguished any lingering hopes of the play-offs. But if City should lose, not many of those around them will pick up points.
You made out you came up with the number yourself, a quick Google shows the average points to stay up in the division is 47... You didn't come up with it yourself, which is what you got stuck for. Along with changing your mind to every other number between 40 and 50 to hedge your bets and look like you've got a clue about football.Quote:

Never sure where that figure came from as I’d only ever seen it mentioned somewhere where there was an agenda.
Still plenty of twists and there’s to come. Who’s have predicted Huddersfield would be out of the bottom 3 a few days ago when they were 1-0 down at Boro with promotion chasing Watford next up ?
Just need to get as many points as quickly as possible. At least yesterday showed the players are up for the fight
Lots of people. Because Warnock has an excellent track record of keeping teams up.Quote:

Agree with that Tim. IMO it hangs on the games against Rotherham and Huddersfield for us.

Plenty on here were slagging off warnock and were hoping he would screw up and even predicting it with gleeQuote:

Beating 2 out of Stoke Watford or Sunderland would do it.Quote:
