[MmmMonsterMunch]

Yeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh go on the Cov. Donny goal now please!

west ham hammered 5-1 lol

Seriously what a weird league. Where the hell did that result come from?!!

[winchester_royal]

Excellent set of results so far, just need Cov to hang on now.

Only the Brum result let it down really.

[1871 Royal]

And Burnley, ish.

They are 3 points behind Brum, 2 behind us I believe that makes it.

Kevin oxf*rd Philips.

Can't complain about tonight bar Birmingham & Burnley. Very nice set of results.

I think the next 6 or so games will determine if we are serious contenders for auto or not. We ought to be aiming for 13 points minimum to get up there. Our run in is bloody awful so need the points on the board early.

DeLOLeted your post Avon?

[Avon Royal]

Bugger.

You must have imagined it.

[MmmMonsterMunch]

Frigging knew they'd nick a winner! Still we can't exactly moan about that...

[1871 Royal]

Mmmmmm, must have!

[Tails]

7 out of the 10 top 12 playing tonight have dropped points.

Pretty happy with that if I'm honest.

Well done, dickhead.

Pfft, must have touched the wrong wood.

Auto, no we aren't in with a chance at all. Let's be serious now, nothing has suggested we are and maybe we should try and consolidate a play off place because we can't be sure of that yet.

We now face teams fighting for promotion or fighting to avoid relegation so it's a very very tough run in. So we have ground to make up then keep pace with the top two in order to contend.

Not one game in that lot that should be beyond us....IMO.

[MmmMonsterMunch]

No reason why we can't take 20+ pts from those 10 games. If we do, then we will be right in the mix for 2nd & possibly 1st. FACT.

[redscot]

Until you look at the last 10 games. Play-offs is a more realistic target.

Who knows? It's an interesting league this year though. We've won 8 from 11 playing utter oxf*rd. What could we do once we start playing well again?!

If we did get 20 pts we'd be on 65 points by 20th March so you'd like to think play-offs would be 95% achieved.
