| 8 away 7 at home left, the race to 85+ 15:34 - Feb 22 with 762 views | Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior | Let’s say it’s 86 points for second based on Boro’s current PPG At least 10 wins needed most likely. For the math to math we are going to need to win probably half of our away games (yikes) to get to 85+ points and even then have to win 6 out of 7 at home with the likes of Brum, Boro and co still to play We do have some winnable aways Watford Stoke Sheffield Wednesday Charlton WBA Some tough ones as well. Scum (hate to do it but we know our recent record) Pompey Saints Scary to think we can’t afford any dips unless someone above us really implodes. Just worth noting there’s no more “in isolation” results and there will be games where a point away isn’t even a good result. |  |

Wrexham was a winnable away game. But then Coventry away shouldn't have been. We have no clue what town side will rock up to our away games. I think we will do the business at home.. I just cant see what KM can change to be better away from home with this squad. Its had time. Its gelled. But it still hasnt cracked away game performances. |  |

| 8 away 7 at home left, the race to 85+ on 15:43 - Feb 22 with 678 views | PioneerBlue | As we stand here today we arent getting 10 wins but we really should focus on our next game and repeat then see where we are next week. If by some stretch of the imagination we manage to secure automatic promotion we can celebrate in May, more likely we need to manage the performances and mood around the club to be the best we can be and demolish the playoffs. It really doeant matter how we get out of this league but securing PL cash for another season or so will continue transforming the club. |  |

Looking at it we have a max of 2/3 losses left to play with really and it obviously can’t be to Boro at home. |  |

As I’m not playing Tuesday night, I’ve decided to zoom out and look the bigger picture and what’s needed. I hate to say it but I think playoffs with the return we need away, hopefully I’m wrong. If Boro get twitchy it could of cause be even 82-83 point second place season which would be pretty insane. |  |

If we are to get top 2, we need to be better away than we have been over the season to date, no argument on that. Does feel like we can't get into a run of decent form away from home, and the W5 D4 L6 results perfectly illustrates that lack of consistency. Our chances ultimately come down to our away games - improve on the season to date, and we'll probably go up. Don't, and it is playoffs. |  |

Do we keep sticking with what we have away or do we actually try something different No Clarke. No philohene. Put mehmeti in the broadhead role and this would then allow davis to have the natural width option. Stick hirst uptop but we revert back to our flying 3 v high press. Etc |  |

| We really just need to.... on 15:50 - Feb 22 with 635 views | Bloots | ....make sure we get into the play-offs, it's not inconceivable that we struggle even in that aim. Regroup at that stage and hope for the best. |  |

We’d have to go on a terrible run for that to happen. |  |

| We'll need closer to 90 points on 16:01 - Feb 22 with 560 views | unstableblue | If Coventry hit 2PPG again, which is likely now they have found form and goals. Then they'll hit 91 points Swansea is a MUST win, no excuses anymore. Watford win looks necessary do to Wrexham loss. |  |
