    good post!

    only QPR have a harder run in than us and Luton and Southend both have lots of opportunity to pull themselves up.
    It'll go to the wire and I think we'll need a bit of luck to survive.

    Southend have the best run in by some way

    I can see them escaping - I reckon we need 3 points against a demoralised Plymouth on Wednesday - must win game!

    Point at Coventry wouldnt go amiss either

    got to find 3 points somewhere out of next 5 games

    looking at the list our best chances aregetting 9 out of the last 4 but I'd perefer not to be in that situation.</p>

    We have picked up 23 points from 19 games under Davey.

    Interestingly Southend have picked up 23 points from their last 19 games during that time.

    Looking at those run-ins...

    I'd be very surprised if QPR don't go down.

    if we could win tuesday other teams could take lots of points of each other

    and give us a gap again.

    And luton, qpr, hull and burnley all have to play sunderland as well yet!

    Fingers crossed Burnley wont have seen it coming and it will be too late before they realise theyve just fecked up! Were pretty used to fighting for it at the mo!

    if.........

    we are second bottom before the game I don't hold out much hope-the pressure is too great on a side which has little or no confidence at the moment

    To be honest wouldn't fancy Burnley's or QPR's run in so that then leaves one from the rest

    For us they are Plymouth, Coventry Ipswich, Southend and Leicester

    Need 2 wins and 2 draw from them as I cant see us getting much from the others

    Looking at that

    I'd say that Southend have the best chance of all to avoid the drop. I know we've got 3 more points than them as things stand, but they have to play more of the teams around them so you could say they have it slightly easier.

    We've only got them of the bottom 6 to play & we've still got some of the big guns left.

    The fact that a lot of the teams around us all have a few games against each other can only be a good thing for us. Somebody is gonna be dropping points. Our last 4 games will be crucial for us. Southend for obvious reasons, Leicester and Palace could be playing for nothing by then, and WBA will hopefully either be guaranteed a top 2 spot or be secured in the play offs. Remember what happened to us on last day of the season after we had guaranteed promotion to the Prem. We were hammered.
