TRon Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Still a 10. Loads of time left this season to put things right, Gayle scoring twice at least shows we've got goals up front, it's at the other end points are being dropped. EDIT: We were 3-2 down when I wrote that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 That was the moment right there. We'll go on a run now. We've had our toughest spell of the season and had a run of W 6 D 1 L 1...last 16 of the League Cup with a favourable draw. Sit back and enjoy now I reckon.

ChrisJbarnes Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Not many clubs will have the capability to score 4 against a top (championship) team like Norwich or 6 against Wolves. Most wont score 4 goals in a game all season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Still think we have by far the best side in the division. It's mainly about mentality, from now on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

louistoon Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 We've played everyone but Brentford in the top 6 and only played one team (Derby who probably shouldn't be there) in the bottom 7. Now's our chance to go on a run, better not screw it up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Still 10, always have been. Beat Rotherham and go into the break in a lush position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Still 10, always have been. Beat Rotherham and go into the break in a lush position. Aye, us being at the bottom club is a huge opportunity to consolidate that head of steam we've built, before Southgategate. W7 D1 L1 since the dodgy opening would be brilliant form, really. Even if we'd lost tonight I'd have still been fairly optimistic, but obviously a hell of a lot less sure. I'm not convinced we'll go up automatically, because there's still a couple of holes in the squad and we're prone to errors, but I do think we're the favourites for the title.

afar Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 After 10 games 19 points, easy maths that's 1.9 points a game, which equates to 87.4 points for the season. That's been good enough in the past for 2nd spot but I think we need to target 90 points to be sure, especially this season where there are a few teams who could amass 90 plus. The real positive is the fixture list, as other have eluded too. We've played 3 teams in the bottom half of the table Villa, QPR and Derby, the other 7 are in the top. All three of those in the bottom half were expected to be much higher at the end. Going on a long winning run like we did after the 2 early losses would make it very hard for the other clubs now.

Tubestationatmidnight Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Rotherham, Brentford, Ipswich, Preston Cardiff leeds coming up in the next 6 weeks or so. A good haul from that lot will have us top by then and we will stay there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll get better though so should hit 100 points. We've played the better teams so far, and with Rafa you know he will get those costly mistakes in defence ironed out. Also I don't believe our finishing will be as bad again this season as it has been for the last couple of games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I think we've played 7 of the current top 11 sides (excludes us) in our first 10 games. Many of these have been homes games but I'd have thought we've had a "tougher" set of fixtures than the other sides near the top. Saturday will be an interesting test.
