30 points up for grabs 04:32 - Nov 15 with 5339 views | Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior | Between Thanksgiving (sorry but this is often used as a marker in the sports calendar here, so I’m keeping it) and January 2nd, that’s insane! Especially considering we play a lot of teams around us. I’m not breaking any news here but this is going to be such a crucial 6 weeks. [Post edited 15 Nov 2023 4:35]

30 points up for grabs on 14:14 - Nov 15 by burnbudgiesburn | I think it will be more than 83 needed but some think it'll be like last year with 94 points needed for autos. I disagree, the margins in the champ are a lot smaller. There are way less fixtures where you can roll up and get 3-0 and 4-0 wins by playing average. I think if we take another 50 points from 30 games 15 wins, 5 draws, 10 defeats 12 wins, 14 draws, 4 defeats One other team is going to have to be exceptional from now to pip us. |

I want a few more than that, maybe I’m just greedy. |  | |  |

30 points up for grabs on 13:29 - Nov 15 by Exiled2Surrey | I am taking the positive view that this time last year we were dealing with teams with pitches that were less suited to our style of play - and it is notable that we have really come unstuck only when the elements have been against us so far this season (ignoring Leeds for a moment). It's all different this year - our away games in this period are at WBA, Middlesborough, Watford and Leeds which I assume have billiard table like surfaces. 2ppg minimum, get the extras on board in January, and away we go to the promised land |
Breaking last season down into thirds, our points per game were: 1st 15 Matches 2.20 PPG 2nd 15 Matches 1.53 PPG 3rd 15 matches 2.47 PPG The coaching staff / squad managed to turn around the mid-season dip for the run-in; knowing how meticuous they all are, I'm sure they've analysed why it happened last year and will be working on a plan to avoid a repeat. |  |

I think we might add another 6 points this week truth be told. |  | |  |

30 points up for grabs on 14:39 - Nov 15 by textbackup | In the order you show below Draw Win Win Lose Draw Win Draw Draw Win Draw 17 points, which from that lot would be great. Not losing to leeds would be massive, and I think taking a draw from them is doable. 56 points after 26 games, just over a 2.1ppg… |
I had us down for 7 points to now, we have 9… 😎 |  |

30 points up for grabs on 17:04 - Jan 1 with 372 views | Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior | Well even though it feels deflating now it’s basically 2 points a game. So I guess it’s decent but draws against Norwich, QPR and Stoke loom fairly large. After Watford it’s a bad return but in a larger picture it’s been pretty good and not many defeats. Just hate not picking up a few more in those mentioned above after an excellent start to this run. |  | |  |
