    could have gone a lot worse. the game in hand is cardiff away though, so you can probably chalk that off and assume 48 after 41. huddersfield's crazy GD could **** them right up

    Think we need to be looking at damage limitation that game. It could come down to goal difference.

    I see Ipswich won in the last minute and now look safe. A few weeks ago they looked in a bad way. Now they are above Leeds, who, if we won our game in hand we would be 1 point behind. Weird how things go...

    The end of season game against Hudders is looking more and more massive. Need wins against Charlton and Derby at home.

    ii think millwall are probably fine, given their games in hand. i think leeds are right in it now. legend status aside, i just don't think redders is equipped for this battle at all

    If we get 6 points there then that's us safe imho.

    Why is the Cardiff game damage limitation? Should we not be taking advantage and making a go for all 3?

    at 47 i predicted 7 would be enough. i went for 2 home wins and 1 from any of the others. mission 1 accomplished. is 54 going to be enough though???

    Great point means we can go into the Cardiff game knowing we don't need a point or better to climb out of the relegation places. Without it there would be a little more pressure on the boys.

    good point. scott makes a good point too. it's kind of a bit of a free hit now. do we go for 3 and risk getting spanked (goal difference could still be a factor), or bank up again and play for a point?

    I think you have to go to win. No point playing for draws before you've even set foot on the field.

    Pressure is off, they should go out and play some football - they earned that right today, should not be nervous and really go at them.

    I agree, the way they're playing right now they're going to struggle to get another three points.

    Six points should be enough but this league is so messed up this season we might need a few more.

    Unfortunately, I can't see it - they are already on 52 - only one more win and it would be freakish for them them to go down on 55.

    no real point in playing for a point against Cardiff. 1 more pt isn't going to make a difference in our battle against Hudds as we already have a goal difference advantage... may as well go attacking and try for 3 and if we lose, its nothing lost if you catch my drift ;)
