If we stay unbeaten at home this season we will have more than 23 points. We've already got 14 points from 6 home games, 4 wins and 2 draws. We have 3 draws in 6 away games and I think we are 11th, so if we continue with he same form all season, unbeaten at home and not winning away, we'll end up 11th! We could get 23 draws at home and 23 draws away and get 46 points, we wouldn.t be relegated with that number of points. We just need to turn away defeats in to draws and draws in to wins and we could be in the top 6.
We may not be brilliant atm but there is no chance we’re going down this season.
46 points would have seen you relegated about 70% of the time since the Championship started in 92/93Quote:

We've averaged 2.3 points a game at home this season. If we were to keep that up we'll pick up another 39 points at home giving us 53 points from home games alone
The problem is our away form is absolutely shocking, gaining only 3 points from 6 games, keep that up we'll only get another 8 points on the road this season. On current form we end the season on 61 points, so let's all forward to our midtable mediocrity
Judging from the manner in which we played ALL of those home games, I wouldn't be so confident that we'll repeat the same number of points for the remaining home games. Guess that's my point. It seems like no one has much regard for the correlation between good performances and projected points accumulation. You can remain unbeaten for ages and go the wrong way down the table.Quote:

I'm not at all confident we'll keep up our home form, but I assume we'll improve somewhat away from homeQuote:
