Harpers So Solid Crew If we lose our last four games, which is possible, do people think.we will go down?

Rotherham should lose three points, so both them.and Millwall need to win three out of four, I can see one doing that, but not both.


No. Millwall will not take 9 or more points from their last 4. The 47pts we currently have will be enough should we lose all 4.

If this season was 4 games longer we'd absolutely be going down. Two years ago, Peterborough went down with 54 points. We won't get anywhere near that.

We won't but that was an anomaly as you know. Isn't 48pts the average required to stay up?

If the FA Cup was 4 rounds longer I doubt if we would of made the semi finals

The average over the last 10 years is 47, the lowest 41 and the highest 55

The magic number is 5

Personal prediction - Millwall will lose on Saturday. Making magic number 2 (or with GD really 1) then both teams will draw midweek. Season over.

That would require a remarkable turn of form for those below us, so no, not a chance!

winchester_royal Not sure Blackburn and Cardiff away are overly simple either.

Brighton, Fulham, and Rotherham all have nasty games to come as well.

We'd have to be going some to get relegated from here.

Like 1 win in 10?

Our form in that time gives us less than 3 points from our last four games. Which isn't enough to ensure survival. I can't see Millwall picking up another another 10 - 12 points, but we're not doing ourselves any favours. We've got the feel of a club that's been considering itself safe for a weeks and never doing anything to ensure it. That's exactly the sort of team that buckles and slides under IMO.

So it appears that thanks to Adkins we will be safe for this season.

Focus has shifted from the league. Should have done better but there are mitigating circumstances and I'm not sure we would have got results at places like Portman Road and Molineux under Adkins.

Rotherham draw - if they get 3 pts deducted, they've virtually had it or won't catch us I'd say even if they beat us .... they'll hardly pick up 2 wins out of last 3.

Not "quite gone yet" but Wigwam's impending relegation has to be one of the biggest pre-season surprises.

And they can keep James Maclean

Norwich were in a bit of a slump and we caught boro cold early in the season. Both Wolves And Ipswich were playing well when we played them away.
