MC Risk Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Although im not as despondent as i felt after swansea i didnt get millens tactics at all today, 4-3-3 with woolford on right, long ball played right into leeds hands.....although i like the bloke and think he has given us great service, i really do hope we appoint a new manager in the summer and allow keith to stay on in some way, and have a proper rebuild. Anyway given the form of the bottom 3 i think 46 points could be enough this season, anyone else have any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like the Blades but who to go down with Preston & Scunny? Woulden't mind Palarse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

History teaches us it will not but with Preston and Scunny being cast adrift and the Blades rapidly joining them it may very well be enough.

dezgimed Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Don't think it matters as S****horpe, Preston, Sheffield Utd are all far worse than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_BCFC Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Sheff Utd made a 1 point gain today and with them still to play away they might be able to catch us. I would say 50 points would be enough which makes the S****horpe home game a must win in my view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome To The Jungle Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Since we have been championship, we may need 52 points if u look at 2007/08 season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucksred Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 52 points required to stay up. anything else leaves us like Palarse & the Wendies last season. Our inconsistency makes it absolutely imperative we get these points ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CITYRED Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 We've got some massive games coming up like sheff utd, derby, portsmouth, s****horpe, ipswich.. Sheff UTD is a mustn't lose and s****horpe a must win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC_Red Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 hard to say exactly what will be needed to stay up but I would say with some certainty that any team with 50 points or more will not go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duesseldorf Citizen Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 We're still seven points clear of the relegation zone. I really don't see one of those teams behind us earning those and overtaking City in the standings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 We're still seven points clear of the relegation zone. I really don't see one of those teams behind us earning those and overtaking City in the standings... Yeh - looking at the teams below us, can you see them overtaking us ............ ? Preston: sorry - they are going down Scunny: games in hand - but not picking up enough points - prob going down. Beyond those its still open. Points needed:- 2004/5: 50 to stay up 2005/6: 43 to stay up (4th bottom got 50) 2006/7: 43 to stay up (4th bottom got 49) 2007/8: 53 to stay up (4th bottom got 53) 2008/9: 47 to stay up (4th bottom got 51) 2009/10: 48 to stay up (4th bottom got 49). So, on average of the last 6 seasons, 47/48 to stay up, the lucky team averaging 50/51. The unscientific yardstick seems to be 50 points. ...... is this an issue??

Mr Popodopolous Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 It could well be, have had a look at many sides in the bottom half who I would classify as potential for being dragged in based on their respective runs runs of form and here goes: Coventry 14th P11W1D3L7F7A14PTS6GD-7 Doncaster 16th P7W1D1L5F5A13PTS4GD-8 Derby 17th P12W1D2L9F9A23PTS5GD-14 Portsmouth 18th: P8W1D2L5F9A15PTS5GD-6 And of course all those below us, of whom Preston are gone, S****horpe quite possibly likewise so I make it one from Coventry, Doncaster, Derby, Portsmouth, us, Middlesborough, Palace and Sheff Utd for the last relegation place!
