Elliottman Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Draw is an OK result. We should be winning the 4 next games though and hopefully our approach to them is a bit less reactive. Murphy and Gouffran should be making way for Gayle and Atsu. Yep, fulham, Birmingham, Burton and Wigan coming up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Why are we due a couple of mediocre results? The law of averages and a tough set of fixtures. I'm not trying to be Mystic Meg mind, if we win on Saturday I'll happily take it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Gayle back is huge for us at home. It affects the way teams set up against us and in the games he's missed at home recently we've missed far too many chances Mitrovic being the bigges culprit.

Yorkie Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 The next match actually looks like the hardest remaining one, given our tendency to fuck-up at home and Fulham's tendency to do alright on the road. They'll all obviously provide tests to varying extents and it's difficult to know which version of us will turn up. These three results are terrific, and the first two performances were exemplary for different reasons. But, until Brighton, we'd been rubbish for at least 50% of the time since that 9-game streak came to an end. I'm sure we'll be consistent enough during the remaining fixtures to ensure promotion, but I wouldn't bet against a couple of hiccups along the way. Like a random shite defeat at Birmingham or summat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 10 games to go. only fulham H, sheff wed A, leeds H and cardiff A look tricky. win the other 6 and we're up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Think Fulhan, Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds are our only fixtures left that we'll have to be at our best. I think if you look who've we've struggled against this season, this will be incorrect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danh1 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Beat Fulham on Saturday and I will be confident. Good point tonight after the last two results and Ritchie didn't get booked. Hopefully Gayle will start Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paullow Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 10 games to go. only fulham H, sheff wed A, leeds H and cardiff A look tricky. win the other 6 and we're up. Yep, that's kind of how I see it. I know they can be the most dangerous, but in our last 4 games none of the opposition will have anything to play for. Cardiff have been in form (although no wins in 3) but their fans will see that as a big game and it probably will be tough. With Barnsley, Preston, Wigan, Burton at home and Ipswich and Birmingham away you'd like to think we'd win most of those. So if we do get something like 19 or 20 points, say 6W 1D 3L or 6,2,2 or 5,4,1 etc then that will be 96 / 97 and would mean Huddersfield would have to win 9 and draw 2 or win 10 and lose 1 of their last 11 games to pip us and that will be very unlikely. We can basically lose 2 of our final 10 and then just match Huddersfield in their run in to gain promotion. Very strong position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 This is why decimal odds are superior in every way though. Just say "1.01 with most bookies and 1.02 with Paddy Power" and it's all so much clearer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
