For those using last year's parallels;
Newcastle are Middlesbrough - north east club, favourites, bit volatile potentially but should have enough to get it done. Pressure weighing heaviest on them.
Huddersfield are Brighton - going on a fantastic free-scoring run post-Christmas, and scaring...
I get what you're saying, I guess I see it as a new phase since we got a full strength team (Baldock and Stephens) back. Since then we are;
4-1 v Burton
1-1 v Ipswich
2 points per game. Really not too worrying when seen like that.
Agreed - piling huge pressure and demands on individual games at this stage of the season is madness. We've seen how often and how quickly the table change in all directions.
