Haven't read through it all yet, can someone confirm are we going up or being relegated this week?
I'm confused as Harley doesn't appear to be the scapegoat any more but we don't appear to have a new one. Who are we all supposed to blame as the nexus of all failure now? |

One wayward pass next week and he will be top of the pile again. |

It's a scapegoat squad rotation system, to ensure full fitness of our scapegoat in the tough run in towards the end of the season, in order to make sure Harley doesn't get overscaped like poor Reckord. |

Oh FFS Sums up the tinpot nature of Power and Cooper that they won't go into the scapegoat market when we need a new one..... |

Only 3 points separating 13th from 21st  Anyone on a run in the bottom half can climb rapidly Similary the reverse is possible Tight old league this season |

Both goals were brilliant. Ours came from a mesmerising Byrne run, great feet.

We're 7th and hoping to get to 52 points, Sheffield United in 12th are going to get the play offs. |

Not a bad result, 4 tough games now with Franchise, Wolves, Bristol City and Preston.
Win lose lose lose methinks |

At least be a decent away turnout for Wolves ( 800 sold the other day ) and Preston who for some reason usually bring around 1000

We're 7th and hoping to get to 52 points, Sheffield United in 12th are going to get the play offs.
A sound analysis. It's quite interesting to look at last season's and this season's table at the same point. So for example we were a dozen points better off, and eventually squeaked the final PO place, but perhaps of greater significance was that the top 7 were covered by a mere 4 points...whereas this season it's 23 points. This suggests the top teams are consistent and reliable....which seems to be the top 5, then 6th place is very much up for grabs, with a clutch of inconsistent teams. Posh are in the driving seat, but 4 wins since Boxing Day in 12 games is less than convincing. Blades are consistent atm, and are the sort of club, who could keep that going until May....how they react to the rigours of the cup will decide... We're 2 wins in 10, with some tough fixture on the horizon. |

True but we are also 2 defeats in 10 games (excuding the penalties because the 90 mins ended 1-1) which shows we are tough to beat, but we need to turn those 6 draws into wins.
That said I think play offs are beyond us now but who knows, one good run of results and its wide open again.

Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out
