Last season 26 points would have kept you in this league, I fully believe we will need way more than this, this season but comparing to last year half way through after 19 games the bottom 3 were
Tractors 15 points
Foxes 14 points
Saints 6 points
This season currently
West Ham 14
Burnley 12
Wolves 3
So currently less points needed midway through the season.
Hopefully the season follows last seasons form for the bottom 3.

A Wolves win at home to Wet Spam on Saturday will do nicely.

You could reasonably think the bottom two are down. I can’t see any reason why their form could suddenly improve. I know ours did but seem stuck in the mud. Spam or forest could still pose a problem though.

I'm thinking about 40 this season to stay up. Bottom 3 last season were truly abysmal.

Sounded like Burnley should've won vs Geordies, and the Spam result wasn't so bad considering the opponent. This is far from over unfortunately.

Great post LAD.
Agree Brighty, large lady is far from singing as yet, Wolves put on a very spirited display away at Devon yesterday and could have easily won that game, the big unit up top for them was a constant menace throughout and lightning quick, he would have been a handy signing.
The thing that worries me as much as the transfer window is the significant Wales contingent within our squad, if they lose their playoff game, well, we have seen the Welsh players lose form quickly after a significant defeat.

Fair points lads, I would concur with Alf that 40 points should do the trick. Think Wolves have too big a mountain to climb. Burnley have 2 fatal flaws in that they can't put away their chances and their defence is awful. Wet Spam can't seem to hold on to a lead or win at home which is going to make it real tough for them.
Florists seem to have hit a flat spot after their initial bounce. If we continue to perform at home and chisel out some away points we will be absolutely fine. Here's lookin forward to 2 cracking games coming up ?.

The way things are going Class, none of them my be playing in the international play off with James and Rodon both injured already.
Also I think the last time Farke set a points target of 90 in the Championship to get automatic promotion, it failed.
Got to try and win every game, I’ve got a feeling that 18th place will be a very unusually high pointer come the end of this season.

I’d take them missing playoffs Opti, but end of March means they may all be available, Amps fans really upped his game lately and it would be terrible if we were impacted by a Wales loss.
Of course they might win and qualify!
And that would boost their confidence, come on Wales!
