🔮 How many points will we pick up from our next 5 games?

And do you think there's a minimum requirement? If so, how many points?

7? Expecting nothing from the away games-avoiding a pummelling at Leeds would be progress after Cov and Boro.

mattaquino.bsky.social•104 days ago

My thoughts exactly. Just want to see Edwards set us up to be tougher to beat away at these better sides.

No one is going to lose their mind if we succumb to a narrow defeat at Leeds having been dogged throughout the game. Just no more capitulations!

5, seems to be the way of it.

markthehatter.bsky.social•104 days ago

Should be 9. I reckon will be 4-6. If pushed, I’d go with 4.

mattaquino.bsky.social•104 days ago

4 😬

I've always had you down as being quite optimistic, Mark. That's what this (and the end of last) season has done to so many of us, I guess 😂😭

Ah man I usually am. UnfortunatelyI think we’re in a bigger mess than most of us know. If we don’t somehow get a clear basic function-able style of play together the run up to Christmas might be a blood bath.

Hull and norwich both winless in 5. But we seem to be a gift to teams like that! Home perfomances have been picking up. Think a lot depends on alfies fitness. Im saying 8. 2 home wins, 1 draw and 1 away draw. Nothing from leeds.

mattaquino.bsky.social•104 days ago

Yeah, I think we'll beat Hull. We've won our first game after the previous two int'l breaks. Seems to focus some minds and we rise to the challenge.

I can't see us getting anything on the road, so it may be a case of how well we pick ourselves up for the two home games after.

mattaquino.bsky.social•104 days ago

I reckon we'll get 7pts - enough to keep our heads above water (Edwards' too).

Anything less than 6pts would be a disaster given we'd have had three relatively favourable home games in that run.

If the injury situation calms down from here and we get a 100% fit Marv back soon, then we could easily get 10pts. If not, then it could be a grim few weeks ahead!

mattaquino.bsky.social•104 days ago

I don't know what's going on with Marv. He looked great against QPR in the cup, then had a setback and hasn't looked sharp ever since.

Rob seems reluctant to use him, but he played 90 mins for 🇿🇼 yesterday. Hopefully he can get back to the player he was.

windmi.bsky.social•104 days ago

Lets hope he doesn't get another setback with zw before returning.

I think 5, try not to lose the home games. Away form is a concern, Leeds and Norwich will be difficult.

mattaquino.bsky.social•104 days ago

Yeah, I don't see us getting anything out of those away games.

If we only get 5pts it'll keep us at this 1ppg avg and will again suggest RE is unable to turn it around.

7-8pts would be enough to reduce the pressure and buy him more time, I reckon.

jamhatter.bsky.social•104 days ago

We really need to be winning those 3 home games. Anything less than 6 points will be rough and if we slip up against Hull that is one difficult week.

mattaquino.bsky.social•104 days ago

Oh god. Imagine the mood going into the Leeds game if we lose next weekend.

I think we'll be OK. WLLDW in the next 5, for me.

hatters1988.bsky.social•104 days ago

You'd hope minimum of 7, but fear for 2.

mattaquino.bsky.social•104 days ago

2 points from those 5 would be the end of the road for Edwards.

I'm hopeful we'll get 7. Can't see us getting more than that but you never know...

mikster.bsky.social•104 days ago

DLDWW - 8 points

danlukeashby.bsky.social•104 days ago

Performances at home has improved. Would expect 7pts from those 3. Would take anything away at the moment we need to set up more defensive bring Nakamba in for Chong.
