We are 9th after 25 matches now and were 11th after 25 last year, from a tweet I saw somewhere here yesterday. It got a little scary towards the end last year until we hit than win streak to finish out.
That said, I agree that it is extraordinarily unlikely. Anyone know the current odds?
Stupid post really. So you are saying we will not pick up 12 points in half a season? Bury who are bottom have 17!!
If we get relegated (excluding point deduction) I will get a tattoo of Roland on my bum
Since the 28th of October we have managed one league win. We don't look like scoring, we are as leaky as a Bangladeshis roof in monsoon season and half our xi are injured.
Whilst I don't think its likely, I would say its more likely that we will get involved in a relegation scrap than we will be getting into the play offs - seeing as we are 11 points off 5th & there are a number of teams looking at getting 6th spot.
Extremely unlikely, need around 10 points for safety, 21 games to go so under 0.5 a game i'm sure we'll manage.
But as @ricky_otto says, Play Off's is a bigger concern, probably need to at least double our 37 points so at least 1.75 a game which doesn't look likely. the alternative is win 17-18 games of the last 21 and we might just sneak automatic.....
Next two games are easily winnable so the six points we will get will put us back near the pack,easy.
If we fail to get three or four points from the next two homes I would start to be concerned. Lose one and draw one and the bell will start ringing. Much will depend on our January signings and exits too......
We wont get relegated. We may not get play offs but certainly wont go down.
want to put money on it ?
Already pledged £20 to the upbeats if we get relegated, plus another £20 if Mavididi gets a season ending injury early on or is outscored by KAG from now until the end of the season.
I think it's unlikely, but if we continue in the same vein of not being ble to score goals and leaking goals easily then we could find ourselves in a bit of a scramble towards the end of the season. As they say, there is always one team that has a disastrous run - why couldnt it be us?

14/1 to be promoted

But don’t forget, every year we improve.

I knows it nothing to shout home about but reckon we will definitely be in the top 12.
If Bauer, Pearce and Fosu came back we might do something - a few results, the confidence comes back and who knows.
Oh, wait...
Tickets going fast.
