Seems we may have some fight in us

 

Beat Rotherham and I'm going 44 points to stay up

 

It's probably low historically but looking at the table that's my call

 

It's definitely doable

I don't think that will be undoable.

 

If we push out of the bottom 3 in the next week or two, the relief will be a huge boost.

Let's just take one game at a time.

Just get the new owner in soon as possible, and that works be a double boost.

How many points are we off the play-offs?

Reading?

I've done a tally up and absolute best case scenario I can see 44 points with wins against....

 

Rotherham

QPR

Ipswich

PNE

Bristol (a)

Reading

Charlton

 

With a couple more points needed from the rest

 

Have we got those 7 wins in us though

We have only won 3 all season

We have only won 3 all season

 

Let's just fucking give up now then, shall we?

 

FFS.

We have only won 3 all season

 

christ youre depressing.

christ youre depressing.

 

But factually correct.

 

We'd all love to find 7 wins from the last 17 (?) games, but it's not unreasonable to doubt it will happen, having won three in 29 (?) so far.

 

I can't see us getting 44 points, but I can see a team staying up with 40, as everyone beats everyone else. Can we get 40? It's more realistic, if nothing else and we'll never know unless we go for it.

The squad all know they're in this battle together now the transfer windows shut, only they can get out of it with spirit and respecting each other. The better of the players everyone were scared of losing are still here and obviously not forced out of the club for financial reasons, thus boosting confidence of actually getting paid too. BWFC will get the new owners this month and the good ship Bolton Wanderers will sail on up and out of the bottom three in the next few weeks, coming from two goals behind at Wolves has started the resurgence, I'm confident of it.

We're going to have to win a couple of away games to stay up because we won't win enough at home imo. We've been poor all season but still in with a realistic chance of staying up which I find incredible with 3 wins and in February.

 

Thankfully, Charlton, MK Dons, Rotherham and Bristol City must also be very poor.

 

As long as we give it a good go, that's all we can ask

FWIW I can imagine 43 or even 42 being the magic number this year

We qon

We wont get enough away pts. Will say 12-13 at home 3-5 away. Ta ta 38 or so

I know it is old hat, but one game at a time, we must win Saturday.

 

Nothing else matters.

 

Remember if Wolves are the 12th best team in the division teams will start to pick points up in unexpected games.

 

It is the hope that kills you.

We have only won 3 all season

This. Dont get your hopes up lads. We are going down

This. Dont get your hopes up lads. We are going down

 

Imagine if the players had thought like that at 2-0 down last night.

Seems we may have some fight in us

I agree that the threshold will be lower than usual, and that a win against Rotherham can be a big boost.

 

There are seven clubs in the mix. We are bottom but by no means adrift.

Let's just see....

 

I look at the fixtures and think yeah why not some winnable games

 

However stats don't lie and the way the fixtures fall against the top teams don't look good.

 

Without being dramatic Saturday for me is last chance saloon especially with the tough fixtures at the end of this month

Let's just see....

Year after year teams closing in on promotion do falter. Players get giddy about reaching the Prem, and this year the potential riches will be greater than ever.

So I would Charlton at home being as difficult or easy as Boro or Hull.

We won't get 44 points.

 

17 games to go.

 

9 out of the top 10 to play, 5 of those at home, against 5 of the top 6.

 

8 games to get 23 points!

 

Even if we averaged 2 points a game from those 8, we'd need to find 7 points from 9 of the top 10 teams.

 

We need a miracle.

 

Or, 3 out of Brizzle, MK, Rotherham, Charlton to go on a worse run than us.

17 games to go, but we're only allowed to compete in 8 of them? Talk about pessimism!

I see where you coming from however with to play 4 teams with very good away form I can't see it myself

Don't confuse pessimism with realism
