7 points needed, but where from?

[RawmarshMiller]

At best Wigan will get 11 more points, that means due to our dire goal difference, we will need 7 points from our remaining games. After today, not sure where they will come from though.

[loyalmiller]

Stop overthinking things.

Tonight we are 5 points clear and as long as we're still 5 points or better on good friday evening, then we'll take it from there.

Lets take every sequence of games as they come...

Correct loyal, it's a funny old game, and one game at a time, and sometimes points come when you least expect them, no need to panic.

How do you think Wigan will get 11 more points ? I reckon they will be lucky to get 7 from 7 games. They have to play Middlesbro (A), Derby (H), Fulham (A), Millwall (A), Brighton (H), Wolves (H) and Brentford (A). All those teams have something to play for.

Ours don't fair much better...maybe something from B'Ham..Brighton or Fulham but I don't figure much else from the rest...very tight indeed..but we have the 5 point lead...

Birmingham (A)
Brighton (H)
Middlesborough (A)
Fulham (A)
Norwich (H)
Reading (H)
Leeds (A)

Easy...

Birmingham (A) WIN
Brighton (H) WIN
Middlesborough (A) LOSE
Fulham (A) DRAW
Norwich (H) LOSE
Reading (H) WIN
Leeds (A) DRAW

You could look at it as 21 points possible

I'm surprised you think Brum away is more likely to give us something than Reading at home.

Difficult to believe (and unlikely) but a win at Brum could actually be enough. Wigan would have to do better than their points per game average so far this season to catch us.

[loyalmiller]

I'm not surprised he thinks we'll get something from Brum, they only drew with a very poor Hudders team last week, but like you I also think we'll beat Reading at home.

7 points,we will be lucky to get 1, on todays showing absolutly no chance. I am so dispointed with the results, i expected much betterk still a good try but will be happier when we are back in our comfort zone and playing the way we are good at, bang crash wollap
