saints_is_the_south Posted 15 February, 2012 Share Posted 15 February, 2012 Looking at our next 6 games, now is the time to really put a winning streak together to cement 2nd place and maybe even reclaim top spot ahead of the last month of the season. Derby - H Watford - A Leeds - A Ipswich - H Barnsley - H Millwall - A 5 teams in the lower half of the table and with nothing really to play for (Millwall aside perhaps, although once the Skates get their points deduction that should see them safe too) and Leeds who aren't in great form (only 3 wins 10 games and lost last 2 at home). All very winnable games. If we are serious about challenging West Ham for the title, then I think 16 points out of 18 should be the target. For 2nd I thnk we need at least 12 from the next 6. But that is a run of fixtures where we need to put a 4 or 5 winning match run together IMO, before the "harder" fixtures at the end of March/April.

S-Clarke Posted 15 February, 2012 Share Posted 15 February, 2012 No games are easy, and I'm more nervous about these upcoming games than those against the top teams. We always struggle at places like Watford and Millwall, it will be very tricky whatever happens. Watch Leeds get a manager in before they play us too! (they're still a very dangerous and talented side) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derby - H - win Watford - A - win Leeds - A - lose Ipswich - H - win Barnsley - H - win Millwall - A - draw 13 points out of 18, I think will see us in 2nd still. Win all 6 we are laughing. Watch the epic fail at the first hurdle on Sat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
