Rugeley Villa Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 We are on the up but once we are back in the prem we need to think big. I know it's not my money but ya know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we'd have gone at just a point a game through the horror run with Bruce, what was it 2 points from possible 24? or 27? Even if it was the poor return of 8 points from 8 games we'd be only 4 points off 6th now. Which is unbelievable seeing how shit we have been for nearly the whole season.

villalad21 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Been soo many changes this season, whatever happens next i'm pretty happy with the team. Next season is when we will push for promotion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommo_b Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Like Bruce said, the shoots of recovery are there and he knows how to get out of this league, unfortunately sorting the mess we were in was going to take at the minimum at least 1 season, we all hoped we would still go up, and we may possibly still do, very happy to have Bruce leading the charge and the change.

After that they couldn't beat Blackburn and got battered by Wolves.. they are 6th for a reason, lets not pretend they are something amazing. All I'm saying is that Derby and Norwich will be difficult away fixtures for them. Both are good at home. Don't give up hope just yet! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had to have a complete clear out with loads of new players coming in so that was always going to be hard. Imo there was just too much going against us. I don't know. I thought you had statistics. But statistics only mean so much. With a new owner, with ambition and money, and new, seemingly impressive, management and back room staff, my feeling was we would go up.

Villarocker Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Listen, I was dead against the dream of the play offs after that disastrous run we went on but, there's no doubt that we could win all our last games if we keep our confidence going. Then, it all comes down to two other clubs imo - Fulham and Sheffield Wednesday. Fulham have incredibly tough away games at Sheffield Wednesday, Derby, Norwich and Huddersfield. Have two winnable home games plus us. So, if they were to win both of those other home games plus draw at Sheffield Wednesday that would put them on 71 points. We win all ours then we have 75 points. It then all comes down to whether Sheffield Wednesday can take a further 11 points from the other 18 possible. Ordinarily, judging by the fixtures, you would say yes they can. But, they are on a terrible run of form. Basically, we need to win all our games, hope Fulham can't win away and, that Wednesday continue on this bad run.
