RedSox Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 25 minutes ago, eccles the ram said: I pray this will be done and dusted by the time we play Bournemouth. Hope it's only an extra 3 points which will give us a chance if we can get new faces in January and ownership sorted. We then know how many points we need to stay up. I am now rather upbeat as I can see Reading getting a 9 points deduction bringing them closer to us. I see back end of the season we are in a mini league of six teams where three will go down. I think the last home match against Cardiff will be bigger than the one against Wednesday last season! UTR And surprise, surprise - our Appeal on the Admin deduction has been "adjourned" by the EFL, according to the DET. Well, well. Another delay to incovenience us.

Don’t you think Rooney can identify a decent striker who will join in Jan? What are the chances of at least 1 of the 17 - 21 placed teams falling like a stone? Or further points deductions for others? The squad’s mentality will be improved by knowing exactly what needs to be done. Yes there is a mountain to climb but we can survive the drop. I think we got half our points last season in games that Bielik played in spite of him only playing a quarter of the season. I wouldn’t expect him to have quite such an impact this time although he may play more games. I think we have some better players this year. kevinhectoring and jimtastic56 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not an appropriate label to give anyone I don't know about that Woodley - I'm not inferring anything at all, merely suggesting possible locations - but if a Mod thinks it should be removed, I'm fine with that. I'm less concerned about Ploppy's feelings though - he's been calling Derby fans in general some pretty vile names (including, by coincidence, 'vile', and also 'Brexiteers') simply for arguing from the club's POV.

Leeds Ram Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 12 hours ago, Bris Vegas said: The scenarios are different however. Last season after 17 games we had 12 points. After 17 games last season Sheffield Wednesday had 9 points, Wycombe had 11 points and Rotherham had 13 points. We were only 1 point behind at this stage last season. Now, we are currently 9 points behind. We don’t have 18 points, we have SIX points. And the 18 points we have collected after 17 games would be around 49 over a season. Teams have been relegated from the Championship with more than that total anyway. Just to match last season’s total of 44 points which was only good enough to stay up due to Sheffield Wednesday’s points deduction, we need another 38 points from 29 games. That would be 60 over a season. I’m not saying let’s give up. But, let’s be honest, we’ve only won 4 league games in the last 32 under Wayne Rooney dating back to last season. Hardly screams of mid table form. We’re going down. Just this really. I'm not sure where people have got this idea all of a sudden that we can claw back a double digit deficit when we've not seen this kind of form over 2/3rds of a season's worth of games.

Reading are set to lose points. If it's 9 then they drop to 11 leaving Hull on 12 as the target team. If we get another 3 point deduction that means 9 to catch 4th bottom. It's hard to really forecast where this will all wash out just yet. October was a terrible month and we may well rue the points missed during that easier period, but it's not over yet.
