L4cole 0 Posted March 30, 2011 With the final run in coming up Ithought I take a look at Swansea''s run in. I am a strong believer onconcentration on our own results. But if a few teams can do us a handon the way I am not gonna be one to complain. And looking at thisthey have Hull, Burnely, Portsmouth and Millwall. all teams or placesI wouldn''t wanna be going at this time of the season.(Yes I know wehave Portsmouth) A Preston H Norwich City H Hull City A Burnley A Portsmouth H Ipswich Town A Millwall H Sheffield Utd So,how many points will they get? I really do think if wecan keep battering away the Premiership could actually be a reality.And after spending my First season as a season ticket holder andwatching the crap we played when we went down, Would never havebelieved this could be a possibility a year and a half a ago.

[/quote]If we win against Scunthorpe and they Lose or draw at Preston (very likely) we will go to Swansea for a game they really need to win more than us and that would make an Interesting game and a draw will do just fine.

CanaryJames 0 Posted March 30, 2011 I think they''ll get at least 12 points from the 7 matches that don''t include us. As for our match, it''s quite possible that the ''winner takes all''. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snakepit Lass 0 Posted March 30, 2011 they will be a really really hard team to beat as they are doing well so don''t write them off, as you can say exactly the same for us but i think we will have the edge :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanaryOne 0 Posted March 30, 2011 Cardiff will end up the biggest danger . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,314 Posted March 30, 2011 Conversely if you look at Cardiff''s run-in it looks much better than ours. We just have to win our games - simple as that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]It''s so difficult to call Jim. It''s hard to find a banker win from that list. Maybe their last two home games, especially if Sheff Utd are either safe or already relegated. In last season''s run in we won at Charlton but lost at Tranmere and Orient. Not many called that but it''s the points total at the end that counts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pabs 0 Posted March 31, 2011 A Preston D H Norwich City D H Hull City W A Burnley L A Portsmouth D H Ipswich Town W A Millwall D H Sheffield Utd WThis would give Swansea 12 points, meaning they finish on 78.We would need only 12 points to get above them, although this small amount would bring Cardiff & Leeds in to play too.If we beat Scunthorpe and Swansea fail to beat Preston (which is a tough game IMO) then dont be surprised to see Cardiff and the Leeds scum as our biggest challengers. If Leeds beat Forest at home Saturday, they are in with a shout.I just think it will go down to the last day, it is so tight and the teams up there are so similar. OTBC.
