Today was must win as well. Every game is must win. The league makes for grim reading with the run in we have..... http://www.sportinglife.com/football/live/league-tables/championship
53 points needed in my opinion. Beat Charlton and Derby, then need to find three more from somewhere. Huddersfield game looking as if it could be vital.
Record v top half: 1.16 ppg Record v bottom half: 1.15 ppg We're as good, or as bad, as anyone else on our day. We can also be dragged down to the opposition level. Giving Sheff Wed 6 points is hugely disappointing but we've had some good results against top teams and we can do so again.
Judging by results so far I'd be more worried if all our remaining games were against clubs around us. We still do very well against the top teams.
I think that's the only reason why we still stand a chance of staying up.But if i'm honest I personally don't think we'll do it,i don't think we have the depth of squad to do it especially at the back.We are certainly missing young stonesey and i'll stand by what I said at the time we've dropped a bollak letting him go,even more so given we've done fu@k all to strengthen our weak spot.Its going to cost us a lot more than his transfer fee if we go down.
I fear we are a "proper" centre half short and could drop. A lot depends on how Dawson does and wether flicker tries again with a 3-5-2 again. We need all three of our best midfielders playing and bossing games to make up for our defensive inadequacies. Then again, had COG played today I reckon we may have nicked the points and not the pigs.
