Habitual new month thread. Six games, usual question - what will we get? what do we need?
Gillingham (H)
Doncaster (A)
MK Dons (A)
Burton (H)
Cheltenham (H)
Morecambe (A)
I think we need 15 and will get 13 (stuffing up at least 2 away games). |  |

To stay on track we need 12 but think will get more. Next two should be 6 win the other two home games and sneak a draw somewhere and we should be up closer to play offs. Some of the recent results for teams above us show how inconsistent everybody is. |  | | |

Just started looking back to see where we could potentially sit in the table if we had taken 50% of the points dropped under cook, wish I hadn’t now, made my stomach churn looking back at some of the results … the kits were always crisp and fresh tho !! |  | | |

No room at all to slip up in the next 2, then MK Dons could be a real turning point. Win it and we'd likely be about 6 points back from 6th with 2 home games to come, then the team in 21st.
I think we need a bit more to stay on track because we're less likely to average 2 points per game in March and April. [Post edited 30 Jan 2022 21:19]

Look at Oxfords next 5 games. I wouldn't fancy getting many points from that if it was Ipswich! | | | |

Bear in mind MK is practically a home game (we'll have nearly as many fans as them). Think they're all winnable.
MK have only won one and drawn two from five at home since the third week in November. |  |

I agree with OP... We need 15 points from those games. |  |

Need 21, expect 20. It’s now or never. In reality, 12! | |

I think 20 points from a possible 18 is asking quite a lot of the new manager. |  |

We need to start playing some decent penetrative football and find out shooting boots before we start talking about points. |  | | |

15-16 points
We should be winning half of those games easily and, while Saturday was disappointing, we’re still on an overall decent run of results.
Thompson looked OK on his debut and will benefit from a week’s training. We’ve got a couple of weeks to learn from Sheffield Weds and focus on knitting our midfield and attack together before the next big test of MK Dons. Which Morsy is also back for.
We’ll lose or draw one though as it’s the nature of League One for any team. |  |

Some acknowledgement that we can both be flawed and still eventually end up in a decent place might help in not losing our heads every time we drop points... | |

Well... 12 in the end. Not what we needed, but more or less what I thought we'd get. Was hoping we'd use this month of winnable games to put ourselves right in the mix, but looks like we'll have to do the hard work against direct rivals instead... [Post edited 26 Feb 2022 17:07]

You also predicted we would drop the points in 2 out of the 3 matches we actually did.
What do you reckon for March? I will look forward to seeing it on a separate thread.
More's the point, do you think we will sneak 6th or have we left ourselves too much to do? |  |

Hard to feel optimistic after 180 minutes of football where we've contrived to trip over our own shoelaces in games we could've won 3 or 4 nil without the opposition feeling too hard done by! | |
