Sutekh Well I think it's fairly clear that the next 6 weeks is going to dictate our season and whether it's going to be a realistic run for the play offs (or better) or an excursion to midtable respectability. Either way it will be a big improvement on the past two seasons of complete and utter ineptitude.
Basically this next 6 weeks sees 8 games with 7 of them being played against the teams currently 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th. The only exception is 1 game against proverbial bogey team Blackburn :
26 Nov - Bristol City (h)
03 Dec - Fulham (a)
10 Dec - Sheffield Wednesday (h)
13 Dec - Leeds United (a)
17 Dec - Blackburn Rovers (a)
26 Dec - Norwich City (h)
30 Dec - Fulham (h)
02 Jan - Bristol City (a)
So that's 24 points up for grabs and to be honest I think all those games could go either way. I can see us winning them but I can equally see us being turned over as we never seem to be particularly convincing in any game.
However the side appears to be gradually developing that understanding and generally performances are improving so if that can be maintained over this period of games then things should be very bright going into 2017 and who knows what that could bring.
So definitely a sustained period of very difficult opponents to play against. I think that 15 points or more would be an amazing return but more realistically would perhaps be looking at around the 12 mark and certainly anything less than 10 would be disappointing
Thoughts on how you think we'll do over this period, esp. given the crop of injuries we seem to have acquired?

LUX we'll prolly drop a few points between now and the end of season Bro, but I reckon beating the 106 is still ON. That's March, m8.

Saturday's first 11 was pretty decent and we have Mendes, Meite, Kelly, Cooper, Harriot, Gravenberch, Tennai Watson with Rakels due back any time, so I wouldn't say we were threadbare. Plus we may bring in a couple in January. Are our loanees coming back?
