Come on City
Is that even mathematically possible !?
I reckon we are looking at around 10 points max. I think Fulham will get 9 or 10. Brentford, Millwall and even Brum could be tricky for them, especially if Brum are in the mix for relegation.
Could go down to goal difference.
But we NEED to shrug off these last few games and hopefully approaching the run in as underdogs will help our cause rather than hinder it.
We’re not catching Fulham now.
The manner of the last two defeats will have knocked the stuffing out of us.
We should have been returning with all 3, at least 1, and then come home with nothing.
Hope Neil can pick us up for the play offs.
Had us to lose once between now and end of season before tonight. 11 will still be ok IMO 3 wins 2 draws.
I'm as negative as they come but you Derby aside we are now playing teams who are mid-table and pretty much safe in Norwich, Hull and Forest. Hopefully Reading will be safe by the time they come to us as well. I think realistically there are at the very least a couple of wins and a couple of draws. 8 points minimum....realistically 9. Even if we aren't at our best.
Fulham could also drop points in one or two of their games. If they get 8 and we manage 9 it'll be down to goal difference.
Another way to look at is - If we get a point from our game in hand, it's a race for the line.
We'd have Forest and Reading home and Norwich and Hull away. None of those sides will have anything to play for and that will hopefully give us an edge.
Fulham have Brentford and Sunderland at home. Millwall and Brum away. All of those sides will potentially be looking for points (apart from Brentford .....but they are also a very good side).
Put like that, I'd prefer our run-in over theirs.
We just need to match or better Fulham’s results and win our game in hand but IMO Fulham will win two and draw two which will give them 89 points based on that we would need to win 3, draw 1 and could afford even lose one based on my assumption.
It’s still very much doable
#KeepTheFaith .....I know it’s difficult
Nice positive thread. It will be difficult but we can still do it.
I'm just happy that with 4 games to go we still have automatic promotion on our hands.
Still more twists and turns to come
