I know!!! Just trying to take something out of the day. Going to have to go some to close that gap with these four away games in a row that now stands before us. Let's hope a goalscorer walks through the door Monday. |  |

Could not afford to drop points today at all. |  |

| One point gained on Coventry on 17:15 - Jan 31 with 1299 views | OldFart71 | My negative is Boro won and so did Hull. We need to sort out our problems pretty quickly. Sloppy defending and missing sitters isn't helping. Probably by all accounts lucky to get a point today. Which is the only positive. |  | |  |
| One point gained on Coventry on 17:36 - Jan 31 with 1210 views | WinchBlue | In 3 months time there will probably be 3 teams on 90- 100 pnts. All the top teams will be dropping points at some stage. We just have to keep plugging away. I reckon KMs rotation policy will pay dividends in the last 1/4 of the season & we’ll be strong when others are dropping off. |  | |  |

No team is getting to 100 points this year. Currently no team is on track to get to 90 points either. There is every chance that the promoted teams won't even reach 2 points per game. |  | |  |

Exactly the fact that Hull City have more points than us after 30 odd games shows that we haven’t been good enough. If we’d have signed McBurnie instead of them I expect we would be 10+ points above them. Yes, Oli McBurnie! Ugh. [Post edited 31 Jan 17:44]

Crikey. Tough crowd on this thread. It was a tongue in cheek post about a tiny positive on what was a pretty bad day. |  |

How dare you! Let them wallow in their anger and misery. We’re under-performing; everyone can see it. It doesn’t need to be rammed down our throats. And you are right. There’s a long way to go still. We’re wobbling, but who knows that point gained could make the difference at the end of the season (so could the 2 points dropped in a bad way; we’ll have to wait and see how it pans out). |  |

Win on Tuesday and we'll be 4 points off 1st, but 2 Months ago to the day, we were 16 points off. We could and should be doing better in some games (like today), but we're right in the mix still. [Post edited 31 Jan 18:23]

It’s very rare that no team gets 90+ points For example, on1 feb in previous seasons: Last year - Burnley had 58pts & were promoted with 100 24 - We had 59 pts & were promoted with96 23 - Shef U had 57 pnts & were promoted with 91 22 - Fulham had 58 pnts & were promoted with 90 21 - Watford had 54 pnts ( bit later because of Covid & in 4th place) & were promoted with 91pnts So as far as I can see there is all to play for & we’ve got a pretty good chance. |  | |  |

Gave the ball away early. Was the only one breaking from deep, was the one who carried the ball late in the first half. In a collective day that was really poor, singling Cajuste out is a terrible take. Never cease to amaze me with your terrible ball knowledge. |  | |  |

It is rare that no one gets 90 points, but this year there is no team on track to do so. In all previous years on 1st Feb, a team has been on track for 90+ though. Going through your example: 25 - 2 Teams on track for 90+ points, Burnley came from behind to also get to 90+ 24 - 4 teams on track for 90+ points, 3 made it 23 - 2 teams on track, both made it 22 - Fulham were the only team on track and the only team that made it to 90+ 21 - Only Sc*m were on track for 90+ at this stage, but Watford joined them. So what we see is that only 2 teams in the last 5 years have been going at less than 1.95 points per game (the required rate for 90 points) and improved enough to make it to 90. It's quite possible that at least 1 of the 4/5 top teams goes on a run and hits 90 this year, but this is the lowest points at this stage of the season in the last 6 years and it's a very real possibility that no one makes it. |  | |  |
