Is not good enough for a side going for promotion especially automatic. Especially considering the relatively week opposition

Or 4 from 6 or shall we put our 4 wins on the bounce and do maths on that. The only statistic is we are 3rd 2 points off second in a season we were hoping play offs best. Get a grip.

Do wonder sometimes why people use stats to define things? As you say only stat that matters is we are 3rd what else is there to know? :laughing6:

Even if we won is 6 from 18 good enough?
We could win the next few weeks and still grabs those four loses to make a point.

The league table doesn't lie, we are doing well and currently just short but all clubs hit a patch.

Some fans just love to knock the team.

Not fans just keyboard warriors.

I was always worried about Villa and think they will push on now - I did not think we would be in the position in January I though we would finish between 8 - 12- If and it’s a big IF could get a striker but not put us under financial pressure then I think we might just stay ok the playoff positions which for me will be a massive bonus :ayatollah:

I thought it about Villa a couple of months ago, they looked unstoppable at one point and then dropped right back again. I always think Villa under Bruce are not far off a bad few games. Derby I think look to strong but again will the pressure get to them like previous seasons.

I’d agree with that if we had a rubbish start to the season
But we’re third
No one thought we’d be in this position
Give yourself a break !

4 from 18.....3rd place.......4 from 6.....all immaterial if we don't find someone to put the ball in the net.

Oh and for the smart arses who will say 8 in our last 2 before tonight....well I'm talking against the not so easy teams.

Good point, but also felt we have struggled against the lower teams more than the top.
