    The Fowls, one place above us in 15th, Derby when they couldn't get a point from anywhere, Donni twice, who are by anybody's standard the poorest team in the Div.

    Next 4 games will tell us more - Watford and Burnley at home will be a bigger test, especially Burnley

    Watford?

    21st and 3 points below us, so they will test us at home in a greater way than Bristol City or Wednesday how exactly?
    Gotta love the positivity on ere.

    Half the reason

    I wasn't overly worried about our league position is we hadn't played too many easier games.</p>

    If we'd failed to get points at home to Donny I would have started to seriously doubt me having faith that it'll come good when we get some easier games. We had a very tough start, so an easier run of late balances things up and shows us being where we probably should be.</p>

    Comfortably mid-table after the last couple of seasons would be nice and would be progress. I don't expect us to be beating Burnley, I do expect us to be beating team at the bottom, and giving teams in the middle a good run. So far I'm pretty happy, especially now De Silva is getting back to full fitness ... different team.</p>

    RE: Watford?

    Have you not learnt that there are a few that can't see any good about BFC or be happy that BFC might have just turned that corner and MUST have something or someone to moan about?

    But traditionally...

    Barnsley fair well against the better sides then lose to the duffers so imagine what kind of scorelines we'll get against decent sides. We'll have a goal difference in three figures!

    They're 4th

    Hence I don't EXPECT us to beat them, based upon where we are in the table</p>

    I'd EXPECT Barcelona to thrash Burnely, if they could be bothered to put the effort in. I don't EXPECT they'll get the chance any time soon though</p>
