Robert Earnshaws Workrate Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 We'll be mathematically safe before we even play Brum or Wednesday. That point at Barnsley is looking ever more decent. 9 wins out of 10 for them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hintonsboots Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 We need to stop looking over our shoulders and continue where we left off second half V Brentford. As Wayne has told the players, they are a good team. Rammy03, BramcoteRam84, Robert Earnshaws Workrate and 2 others 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC1388 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Rotherham's remaining games - Bristol C - Away Millwall - Away Wycombe - Home Huddersfield - Away QPR - Home BHam - Home MBoro - Home Barnsley - Away Brentford - Away Blackburn - Home Luton - Away Cardiff - Away Coventry - Home - TBC The Coventry game still needs to be squeezed in somewhere but Rotherham's last 7 games arent the best especially when they are playing every midweek and other teams will be fresher. Can see them picking up 8pts, 10 max? Beating Wycombe & Cov at home, drawing to BHam & QPR. 3 games against teams around us so at least some of them will be dropping points too. If we win 2 of our last 9 that means Rotherham need to get 15-16pts to go above us, I cant see them winning 5 of their remaining games? r_wilcockson, BramcoteRam84 and Rammy03 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there’s some incredibly winable games in that lot for them tbh we’ve still got a helluv lot to do to get out of this or avoid last day here palpitations Highgate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 In my opinion we are well in a relegation fight and may still be when the play the Wendies in the last game. Brum and Coventry may prove to be more difficult to shake off. We needed to beat Coventry and Millwall and we failed to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerTedd Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Love this thread. We have a hard opponent, Brum have an easy opponent (not saying reading are easy, just exaggerating slightly), we draw, Brum win. Oh no, they’ve gained two points on us, the season is definitely over. But then the next week, the tables are turned, we win and they draw, or we both loose (more likely). Either way, the season isn’t played on a single Wednesday. That’s why we shouldn’t be looking at other team’s results really, we should just be happy with a well earned point, and a point closer to safety.

Van der MoodHoover Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Given that 6 matches seem to be the accepted definition of "form" we have gained 3 points, Coventry and Birmingham 7. A continuation of that trend will see them both overtake us by seasons end. Our saving grace is Rotherham who also have 3 points so do not have enough games in hand to overtake. We simply have to improve significantly. Norman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it is, we finished on a high - the draw felt like a win and hopefully the confidence boost will last. Oh, and Rooney has learnt a bit about what worked and what didn't of course. strawhillram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That article raises questions about whether they have actually put the EFL protocols in place at all. This is their second outbreak, too. It sounds like they feel aggreived about having to play but other clubs have had to play matches in far from ideal circumstances. I hope we don't get another outbreak as we would be dealt with in a similar manner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from that one, other teams' results were pretty good for us this week. The Scarlet Pimpernel, TigerTedd, Andrew3000 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
