redkev Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 (edited) Just looking if Stoke Birmingham & Swansea all win tonight there will be a 5 point gap to make up ( quite big and n this league ) just to climb one place, if Hull win they go above us , however much needed last nights point was we really could have done with 3 . We do seemed to have tread water for a few weeks now but the sharks are starting to circle we really need to get 2 or 3 wins on the bounce or we will slip into the zone which mentally isn’t good . Let’s hope last nights battling performance is the start of better things to come . Edited December 30, 2022 by redkev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marina's Rolls Royce Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 The form of Preston is fortunately woeful over past 5 games. Swansea, Birmingham, Wigan, Hull and to some extent Cardiff is similar to ours and QPR are hitting a really poor patch. Our greatest hope will be that these teams continue to struggle and that the bottom 10 teams are all dragged in the mix for relegation. All we need is three teams worse than us and, on paper at least, there are more than 3. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All we need is three teams worse than us and, on paper at least, there are more than 3. This is not necessarily an entirely good thing, but it is worthy of note that we still have Hull, Blackpool, Wigan and Rotherham still to play at AG. The first three of those we dropped painful points against away from home. I view us a bit like Cardiff. Keep thinking they should ultimately be just ok but they keep testing the hypothesis that I might be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marina's Rolls Royce Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 You view us a bit like Cardiff??? You know you need to wash your mouth out! Other than that, I'd agree it's not a remotely good thing- we shouldn't be where we are but we are and that's subject to just another NP thread... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 With both Brum and Huddersfield to play in jan (we need points from them) and also Coventry and Blackburn could be an interesting month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Its Smith Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 I’m not worrying about other teams results at the moment based on our squad being good enough to finish 15-16th at worst. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) One more observation. Reading are not exactly a free flowing, dynamic constantly threatening side especially with their constraints- outstripping expectation all the same. 6 penalties this season in the League, I mean in 25 games that's well! Seems oddly high? Edited December 31, 2022 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
