    Lets hope Hammill doesn't get injured! Worrying that we're so dependent on one player

    Obviously impossible to say given we may have a completely new team by the end of January.
    But I'm optimistic we'll keep our best players and add a couple more and finish er, 10th.

    Do people honestly think we can finish in the play-offs? To finish 6th we'd have to have a run of form the likes of which most Reds fans won't have witnessed for many years. We're on 21 points at the moment with 75 left to play for. We'd realistically, at the absolute least, need to have 70 points by the end of the season to be in with a chance. So we'd need 49 points from 75, or to put it in simpler terms we'd need to win 16 out of 25 games (with a few draws thrown in, 14 or 15 would probably do)

    It's not going to happen. To have a decent chance of staying up we'd need to win 10 out of 25, and no-one would have backed that a couple of weeks ago.

    Away performances are certainly getting better. If we can sort it out at Oakwell and bring in a couple of reliable centre-halves in January, then I think we're capable of winning around half our remaining games, which would put us around the 60 point mark, comfortably mid-table. Which would be a healthy achievement considering our season so far.

    With that in mind, I'll go for 14th.

    Not to embarrass anyone one or maybe just a little, good to look back to see what we thought back in December

    We needed to win 16 out of 25 games, we've won 9 of the 12 since then. If that view was to be followed to get to the playoffs we'd need to win just over 1 in 2 for the rest of the season

    Worrabart when I filmed that corner at Donny, because I knew Winnall would score?

    I'm from the future. And I'm sorry to report it's very much the same, just a few minutes further along.

    I remember saying i still thought play offs were attainable if we got rid of LJ. Could well be right.

    We must be a hell of a side if we make the play offs despite having LJ in charge for over half of it.

    Is it a fluke that Bristol have won four out of five then?
