Countdown to 10 more wins / 90 points (from 1st Feb).......

[West Upper Seagull]

Mixed feelings after this weeks midweek results - Newcastle dropping points but Reading & Leeds closing the gap. Yes, we have games in hand but it's hard not to look at the gap closing - so in the interests of just worrying about ourselves, one game at a time towards reaching the magic 90 point target here goes.......

10 more wins / 30 points to go ..........UTA !

The good news is that reading and Leeds need 35/36 points in 17 games to get to 90.... personally I think 85 will be enough this season.

I have a funny feeling we might need 92. Leeds look good and I can see them going well. I would like 11 wins please!

Isn't this a bit billy-big-bollocks? One game at a time, focus on ourselves and how we do as a team. Anyone can beat anyone in this league.

So you think Leeds will get 13 wins in 17 games.....?

I said the same about a month ago I thought 87 pts would be enough.
If we keep up our form & luck then it will not matter what they do because we will be up.
Should as I suspect we will our form dips then I think 88 points will do it.
Leeds are the team that I worry about because their fans can act as a 12th man in any game.

7 wins in their last ten... Not out of the question

The way I have worked it out is that 2 points a game average is considered good form so if this is applied to Leeds and Reading it is reasonable to expect them to reach 88 and 89 respectively. 90 should theoretically do for us as it stands now, but if we too average 2 points a game too we should finish on 98 which should be our target.

I see Newcastle still have fixtures against Leeds and Reading who also play each other so points will be dropped there one way or the other.

By my rushed maths they have got 38 from their last 17 games so that sees them on....92 if repeated. We have to go there and them to Newcastle.

Corrected for you.

My mate is a Leeds supporter (from Leeds so excused). We done some quick sums and our game at Leeds could be for top spot.
I said it here first.

As for the 'counting them off one by one' thread, I'll put more stock by the imminent 'teams that can't catch us' thread. Rotherham must be out of sight soon, surely?

Yes - definitely get this going as soon as Rotherham can't catch us!

Well done OP - the countdown from 10 has started

I can see Leeds pipping Newcastle for the top two.

If we win Thursday, they lose Sat and we win Sunday, it can start

Excellent thread.

The target required may still be moving somewhat, but it can always be adjusted nearer the end of the season.

30 to go !

Our last 17 have gained us 42 points.

i dont, but a lot will be decided in the games between the promotion challengers as 6 pointers. The games against Huddersfield, Reading and Leeds etc, draws will be good results imho. At this stage gap to 3rd is all that matters
