Sunderland are showing some fight, but they can't do anything more than draw. Villa up next for them, too. It's looking very bad for Birmingham as well. I am more and more hopeful that we can do this, and if we do I think it'll be a more well-financed Barnsley next season...
Real chance to pull clear of the chasing pack with the game in hand. (although we have been there before very recently and blew it!) Bolton and a free-falling Wednesday in the mix now too.
Cardiff and Boro away. Norwich at home. See what the table looks like on wed 14th. Three points minimum.
Looking very good but the problem is that we have two exceptionally tough games away from home this next week - and in all seriousness we will have overachieved to gain one point from them. The three home games after that are much tougher if we’ve fallen into the bottom three again. Which we might well have done.
Kerdiff were shocking at Oakwell. Typically poxy goal, but they didn't deserve it. No reason why we can't get something on Tuesday. 'Boro away is going to be tough, though. That much I concede. They have a proper manager now, and not that absolute charlatan Monk. It's fair to say I'd take a draw there.
Main difference now is we have a goal threat in mcburnie. Without him, I wouldnt hold out much hope, but now I think we'll at least make a fight of it.
Agreed I was more than happy with the results today. Not only did we keep out of the "zone" we also got a game in hand back too.
Agree with others, a point against Cardiff from our next 2 games and I wouldn’t be hugely disappointed. Boro will be very tough. 3 home games in a row will be vitally important for us and I dare say we really could do with at least 7 points from those. Also, feels like absolutely ages ago since we had a 3 o’clock game at home? Fulham at the end of Jan wasn’t it?
True, I think they aren't that good to be honest. Trouble is they're a bit of a bogey team for us, only won 14 out of 50.
Agree that Cardiff aren’t great but with poxy Colin in charge they’ll cheat their way to three points more times than not, boro are very good. I’d take one point from these two, but hopefully at least six or seven from the three home games
