Yes. Definitely. They are on fire right now. But then I also said I'd take a point at Cardiff a couple of weeks ago :shrug:

At this stage of the season it's all about wins. Leicester have to go there too and if they win then the point will mean **** all.

Nice time for a break, they are on a roll and doubt they want the break. We can get Leo nice and rested and be well up for it. Point would be fantastic but start with 2 wingers again then why not all 3.

So you'd be disappointed with a point?

Yes I would, because after that bad away run we've lost the luxury of counting an away point as a point won.

Leicester are at home to Millwall the day before and I'd expect them to get 3 points. That will effectively create a 4 point gap, what with their goal difference. They then have a winnable match at Barnsley before we play them here on 6th.

We need 16 points from a possible 24. A draw at Forest means we've likely to need to win 5 out of 7, including trips to Leeds and Boro.

Yes. No doubt about it. Forest still have to go to Cardiff as well.

Both us and Watford had a "winnable match at Barnsley" recently. Hoping Barnsley's recent good form continues and they can put one over Leicester (and I want them to stay up as I've always had a soft spot for them as they were my dads team)

Any point is a good point away from home.

Yes, of course. I believe we can win the game, and I believe we will go there with that intention. But if we draw the game, I will be very pleased. It is in our hands at this point, and it is up to us to prove we're worthy of being in those positions.

Are you following recent results? We have one point from 3 away games against teams below us. Win the home games and pick up away points. Boro are on a slide and have lost 4 of their last 6 home games and Peterborough have only won 1 out of their 6 home games. I'd be happy with wins against one of these two and draws for the rest, that's 6 pts. Win the four remaining home games and that's 18pts in the bag. Leicester have got to play us, Forest and Palace away plus they have Watford at home. Yes it would be great to win (like we did at Cardiff) but most people would be happy with 1pt against the form team of the division.
