joeyt Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 9 more wins and we are promoted, 13 and we are champions. Well that's definitely not true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 9 more wins and we are promoted, 13 and we are champions. That doesn't make sense. I think we only need to win 9 more games to get promotion (can't see 2 clubs finishing above us at that point), and we only need 13 more wins for the title.

Kanji Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Since I haven't seen Brighton at all bar the march versus us at home, what kind of team are they? What are their strengths and weaknesses? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Do people actually care about winning the title? It's pretty meaningless as far as I'm concerned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Do people actually care about winning the title? It's pretty meaningless as far as I'm concerned. Promotion is my only concern. Only once that is clinched should be focussing on the title. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Do people actually care about winning the title? It's pretty meaningless as far as I'm concerned. It'd be nice but coming in the top two and qualifying for the PL is more important. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Promotion is first priority. Once that's settled I want to win the title. So yes I care to a degree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 It's pretty remarkable that we're on the same amount of points as we were at this point last time. The team isn't as settled and I feel like the immediate oppoition is stronger than it was in 09/10. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Even our gap on third is significantly bigger this time around. It was six points at this stage, as opposed to our 10 points now (counting GD). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team isn't as settled and I feel like the immediate oppoition is stronger than it was in 09/10. I actually made a slight mistake, I had a draw and a win from the 09/10 season the wrong way round on gameweeks 27 and 28, so we are actually two points ahead of the 09/10 season, I updated the graph Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I was more nervous in 09/10 than I am this time around even though we keep losing silly games this season. I think because West Brom and Forest were so strong in our last promotion campaign where as I only really feel like we're competing with Brighton this time around.

I want us to win it. I know it's not a major trophy but I'm surprised at the amount of people I've seen brush off the idea of winning he league as something they're not particularly interested in. If we go up, first, second hell, even if it's by the playoffs, I'll feel confident that as long as we keep Rafa we'll be in the best position out of all three promoted teams to consolidate our position. Doesn't mean I don't still want us to push for the title while we're at it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 6th placed Sheffield Wednesday, only 13 points and 28 goals behind us. They're the real threat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 6th placed Sheffield Wednesday, only 13 points and 28 goals behind us. They're the real threat. The big question is are they capable of getting 40 points (which would bring them level with us should we win 9 games and lose the rest)? Outside of Brighton I don't think there is anyone who would be able to match us should we get another 9 wins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Do people actually care about winning the title? It's pretty meaningless as far as I'm concerned. Going up is obviously the main thing.

I haven't got a crystal ball. 9 wins may well be enough but then again it may not, we will wait and see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
