Doubt we’ll get more than 2 at best out of Stoke and Coventry which will put the pressure on for Rooney’s return.
Still at least we’ve proved in the last two that we can overturn a deficit and having another goal scoring threat in Brown can only be good.

A bit pessimistic IMO, Coventry are inconsistent, Stoke as well, we could get 3 or none, I think we will get 3.

We are as has been said mid table and I'd say thats where we will end up. As you say f this kick starts Brown's season all to the good.

Maybe. We COULD get anything from 0 - 6 (except 5) but having been over optimistic for the previous three games I was trying to tempt fate.
It’s all a bit precarious at the moment but, like you, I’m still generally optimistic about us finishing mid table. Ozoh’s extended absence seems a big loss.

Ha ha yes, I think the same way even though its obviously nonsense. I'm not sure its that precarious, but I would agree it would be nice to get a win and I'd settle for a win and a loss over these next two games. But the team are performing slightly better than I envisaged. we have not been outclassed, apart from possibly the Blackburn game and show resilience. AS the season progresses I expect the team to be more fluid and we should see results improve.

In reality we only need 3 worse teams than us and would suggest there are more than that in this league, hers hoping those words don't come back to bite me!

... and even that was only really 15 mad 2nd half minutes where we thought our gung ho approach had them penned back only to capitulate to 3 breakaway goals in that short time.
