Those last 6 games look distinctly winnable, not that means much with us as all the Christmas fixtures did too.

As it stands today our remaining 14 games are against teams in the following positions
1 Wolves home
3 Villa away
4 Derby away
6 Wurzels home
8 Sheff U away
10 Brentford away
12 Ipswich away
13 Norwich away
17 Forest home
18 Reading home
19 Birmingham home
21 Hull away
22 Barnsley home
24 Burton home
So apart from Ipswich, Norwich and probably Forest teams who all have something to play for wether that be autos, play offs or relegation. A tough set of away fixtures on paper, but with 5 of the bottom 8 to come at home, if we can put all them to the sword who knows how many points we will end up with.

We’re going to need 86-87 points for a top 2 spot
Maybe a little bit less this year as 2nd to 5th is so tight
28 points I'm thinking which would give us 89 overall
Important we don’t lose to Villa or Derby away. A point away to those 2 would be great results.
85 for autos and 78 for play offs I reckon. Not much between 2nd and 5th right now and I'd expect one of the teams in 6th-13th to have a big run
Basically we need 9 wins for auto it appears. So if we assume nothing from the top 5 matches in JR's list then it means we have to beat Ipswich away on Weds as the first of the more winnable 9 games.
Doesn't look like it's going to be a boring end to the season this year...
Our trickiest fixtures out of those, besides Villa away are Brentford and Norwich in my opinion
Villa will be under big pressure to go up. No reason why we cant go there and win.
I agree but it would be a brave man to bet on that match. I can picture every outcome. I can see Villa smashing us, I can see a controversial Villa win, I can see a draw, I can see a smash and grab for us, and I can see us comfortably containing Villa and coming away with a 2-0 win!
