Preston (a) Sheff W (h) QPR (a) Sunderland (h) Ipswich (h) They are all winnable games and if we can get something like 11/12 points from them then we would have done well We’ve fallen so far behind second place and the 2 points per match target, that we basically need to win all 5 matches to get on track. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. Tbh it is doable and I tend to not think about the 2 point target as much as closing the gap between us and the top 2. Stay within 3 to 5 points going into the last 2 or 3 months and then anything can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t be confident of closing that gap in 2-3 months. We need to be in top two ASAP and us with a gap of 3-5 points to third place. Even then I’d be worried about us blowing it at the end. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One For The Road Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 If anyone thinks we are going to win ALL of our next five games them I suggest they haven't been watching us play. (Or looked at the table.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightoffyour Posted October 31, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted October 31, 2017 The mid-division beneath us is absolutely packed - 3 points less than us in 14th are Fulham with 20 points as it stands (live table). We can't rely on results like we had last weekend going our way (and not capitalising), we really need to win tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshVilla Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Well we had the chance to gain points on those above us on Sunday but its a shame our manager is so negative. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAuthority Posted October 31, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted October 31, 2017 Results not going our way tonight. Really wish we'd capitalized when they did go our way this past weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villarocker Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I said the other day that we were - prior to the weekend's games - only 2 points above the position that we ended up in last season. It's ok people thinking we are doing well because we won 5 out of 6 etc but the hard truth is that start to the season left us sat on the grid whilst our rivals shot off into the distance. This team needs to win, win and win again and carry on with that mentality because, if they don't, they will still be in this league next season. It all relies upon our manager growing a pair and stop with the negativity! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
