Do feel today is actually quite big. Need to get ourselves in the top 6 and then stay there as despite what PL says 'being the hunter' isn't preferable.

Yes I can see where you’re coming from . It’s a dead easy division isn’t it. Absolute stone wall 3 points from just about all of those games ,even x2 for two clubs in that list of yours. Yip, Town nailed in for top 6 .. reckon we can even nick 2nd spot if we can buck our trend and d ore maybe 3 goals in every game . Piece of piss isn’t it 👍

Of course it would be a failure. We rightly sacked Lambert because this team should be in the top two. Despite gross mismanagement we are still comfortably in reach of the playoffs.

For those that like a punt
If you can get on at 7/4 or 2/1 then that's value
Bet365 have taken off the 9/4

However bear in mind we only have 5 home games compared to 9 away.
Make of that what you will.

I sense sarcasm.

My point isn't about the teams, more about the fixture computer. By this stage, the division is a good representation of the quality within it, so to be facing that many teams so far below us is clearly a big advantage.

Think it’s dangerous to tag games as “easy”. Let’s not forget we’ve been shoeeeite most of the season and no team in L1 fears playing us.

62 - 78 - 81

On the other hand after today 9 of our remaining 13 games are away from home.
Even if these are against teams below us no doubt some of them will be difficult especially against those sides fighting relegation.

No not a failure this season. Builds his own side in the summer and fails though is a different story.

Yes in that those teams should be beaten by our squad

No in that have you seen how devoid the team is of attacking patterns, movement and goals that he has inherited

The table still doesn't look that kind to us tbh, it's only 6th place that is within touching distance currently unless Doncaster throw away their game in hand and it's very tight all the way down to 11th. Also have to take into account our disgusting goal difference.

Still, with those fixtures you mentioned, any half decent team should be able to put a good run together. Today will tell us a lot I think.

Yep, it's not preferable. Being a Titan is much more fun.

You are pretty much correct. However, part of Lambert's mismanagement has led to us having a huge unbalanced squad.

I think Cook should get this squad into the play-offs but he has a lot of sorting out to do to get this into an effective squad.

As no one else will, I'll open the bidding.

We currently average 1.6 points per game this season, against opposition (on average) who are better at getting results in this League.

1.6 points per game would net 22 to 23 points.

So I think that it is fair to say that below 25 points is poor for a run of fixtures against teams skewed that low down the League.

Anything above 30 points is good.

That's the problem, isn't it? While most of the remaining games look winnable, Town are still creating so little that getting 3 points from any game looks like a real stretch at the moment. You would hope Cook would be able to find a more constructive starting XI & get it to play with more purpose, but changing the way a team plays with constant midweek games & plenty of travel with 9 away games isn't easy.

Everyone but Evans knows it - the change came far too late.
