Super Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 3 teams went down last season on 42 points, is it likely to be a lot higher this season?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coxy27 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Forest are currently on track for 40 points, Doncaster 39, and Coventry 34. We're on track for 46. I'd imagine that one of those clubs will probably have a better end to the season than their current form, but a team above us may well have a much worse end to the season, so it's impossible to predict, but I'd imagine that relegation will be around the 42 points mark again.

Taylor10 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Too tight to call, for me anything less than 45 points and we will be down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted February 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 The home games are crucial considering we barely look like scoring away from home at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex_BCFC Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 50 will definately see us safe I reckon. 45 might do. Best not to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lew-T Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 We need 5/6 wins to ensure our safety, with a few draws along the way. With 16 games left, we have a good chance! Palace home - win Peterborough Away- draw Blackpool home - loss Ipswich away - draw Leicester home - loss Cardiff home - draw Portsmouth away - win Watford home - win Middlesbrough away - loss Derby home - win Forest away - draw Coventry home - win Brum away - loss West ham home - draw Barnsley home - win Burnley away - loss That would leave us on 53 points. Which would just about save us IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times have they been in administration though? Luton got -30 points one year, Rotherham -20 maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which would just about save us IMO 5 of those games are effecively "6 pointers" as well. Our fate is certainly in our own hands, So there would be noone else to blame if the worst should happen. I think you have been very generous there with your predictions. I think it is looking more like around 15 points that I would "expect" from those games. That SHOULD be enough, but it will be a close call! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Posted February 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 those 4 home games watford,Cov,Derby and Barnsley are 10 points min required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keep the Faith Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Those three games in a row around Easter will be crucial. If we're within 5 points of the dopr zone after the Coventry game then we're pretty screwed I reckon with Birmingham and Burnley away and West Ham at home in the last 4. You'd hope that a couple of good results around Easter will pull us far enough away that we don't have to worry too much about the last 4 games.
