cambridgeshire canary 6,706 Posted March 1, 2021 How many points do you want us to get and how many do you think we will get? The matches are.. Brentford, home Luton, home sheffield wednesday, away Nottingham Forest, away Blackburn Rovers, home I would happily take 11 points. 2 draws and 3 wins, very happily take a point against Brentford and somewhat happy to take a point against Luton given, you know, they have become somewhat of a bogey team for us recently- No real reasons we can win the 3 after that however I think.

Wardogz 72 Posted March 1, 2021 I'd be disappointed if we didn't win at least 3 of them, on paper Brentford and Forrest look the toughest for me. Three wins and perhaps a draw with Brentford puts one foot in the prem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Moss 2,165 Posted March 1, 2021 13 points out of 15 for me, I have to have faith in the boys, the only dropped points I think will be against Luton because they play a style we seem to have difficulties with - their sh1thousery is on another level, I mean celebrating with the ref over winning a penalty was actually something else! Has anyone worked out how many more wins we need to seal promotion? 🙏 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yellow Fever 3,768 Posted March 1, 2021 Brentford is going to be fascinating. For them it's very much a hope to win after all they have the chasing pack at their heels. That will probably play into our hands as they then can't park the bus - but that's not their style of play anyway. This will be a test of character. Buckle Up. A statement win by any means & even with my nervy Canary football fan disposition I might think I can start to hear the fat lady clearing her throat and polishing the silverware.

Has anyone worked out how many more wins we need to seal promotion? 🙏 I seem to recall that the biggest problems were caused by their 12th player. Two of their goals were the immediate result of some seriously dubious refereeing. None of those games are easy, but we've been incredibly tight defensively in recent weeks so I'm imagining possibly 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat for 10 points. Incidentally there's another thread on this exact same topic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully the man in the middle on Wednesday doesn’t have any ties to West London... unless it’s QPR or Fulham of course, and then that’ll be just fine!

Hardly the crime of the century though. 15 points is my answer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To get to the magic 90pts we now need 1.538 pts per game from the last 13 games . Win every other game with another point thrown in . Anything above 8 points from these 5 will be a bonus.

Newtopia 517 Posted March 2, 2021 10 would be great, only 8 if 3 of those came from beating Brentford Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
