Defence seems so assured with him in goal. Didn't appreciate his all round game until we slumped with him out the team. Seems a good lad with a good attitude.
I hope we do push on up the league. Maybe RD will be thinking 'what if....' and regretting not strengthening earlier. Maybe then he will do his best to sign Bulut, and then Cousins and Gomez on longer contracts and make a real attempt next season.
This is proper mid table stuff. A few wins, we look to the skies. (Quite) a few defeats, we want the owner to sell. A few wins, it's back to the play offs! I never thought I'd say it, but I kinda miss the 90s when the highs and lows were a little less extreme. Although right now, I'm thinking...didn't we win most of our last ten games in '98...?
I am pretty certain play-offs are out of the question, you usually need at least 70 points, we have 45. With 11 games left, we need at least another 25 points, at least 8 wins, with perhaps a couple of draws, and that will not guarantee 6th place. I know Reading to a late surge when they went up, but this surely is out of the question. But wouldn't it be good to be near it after the season we have had.
Was it not Sasa's first game, away at Stoke, that started the run to the playoffs? Also, does anyone know what our average points per game with and without Hendo?

It was. Think he went on a run of clean sheets as well. Won us games single handed, literally, like Ipswich away.

Best performance that I have ever seen by a keeper was the 0-0 at Brum on the last day of that season...Illic was immense that day.
I can see it now. We push on, go mad and win the next 10 games. Then on the last day of the season we lose 1-0 to Bournemouth - scored, of course, by Monsieur Kermorgant and miss out on the play-offs....

Saša Ilić, Deano, Robbie Elliot, Hamer and now Henderson??
We always manage to pick out a good goalie
The magic of sport is making the impossible possible.
but
a) all 11? seriously?
b) total needed looks like it might be higher this year
