Luxo Jr. Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 A couple of stats people may have missed after what's just happened City now have the best goal difference in the league, 1 ahead of MK. City also the only team in the top six to have won more than half of their last 10 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 (edited) Respect on owning up! Your thoughts now?It was fantasy, but we are living in that right now!To be promoted at the Swindon match we need to be 16 points clear of third place at final whistle (assuming we all have 5 games left at that stage).Its almost a given if we beat Swindon that we would be over them. We would then need to take 5 more points out of MK over the next 7 games.If we maintain our form, its moved to the 'possible' certainly!

He must be right, he always is (in his head). I can't really make a comparison like BristolToddler only having gone to 2 away games. But if that is our worst away performance then it might explain why we are top.... Orient weren't the best attacking side tonight. But, as you say, who are we to disagree with Ian.
