Carl Sagan Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 We need to average 14 points from each batch of 6 games from now on if we're to make it into the top 2. And we absolutely have to beat Plymouth in the quest to make up ground. Sadly, I reckon we'll continue to lose touch with the leaders and will manage 11pts here, cementing a place in the playoff positions but admitting that will be the extent of the season's ambitions. Cheltenham (A) - draw 1pt Bolton (H) - win 3pt Port Vale (A) - lose 0pt Plymouth (A) - draw 1pt Morecambe (H) - win 3pt Wycombe (A) - win 3pt 52 points from 30 played would leave us wanting 40+ points from the final 16 games.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Anything more than 11 from that run would be a bonus. We'll slip up somewhere eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 We need 12 to avoid disappointment for me. Anything else is a bonus, 14 and I’ll be grinning from ear to ear but with the luck of the bounce, decent refs and no injuries we can beat them all.

COYR Well, disappointing if we're hoping for automatics in which case we want Plymouth to lose games. I said above we need 14 points from every 6 game block now on from autos, but that would "only" take us to 92 points which means we would need the top 3 teams to have a drop in form. If we want autos, over the final 22 games we have to back ourselves to be better than Bolton in a straight race, or we're not getting autos anyway. Plymouth are 16 points ahead of us so can afford to draw a few games. They're currently projected to get 101 on season-long form. SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie20 Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Rather than chase a highly unlikely target of automatic promotion I'd rather results in non-Rams matches go against the other possible challengers for a top six spot. We won’t know until the end of the season just how important Bolton dropping 2 points today will prove to be. CBRammette 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayram Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 11 points from that run of games I think. Home games won, wins at Cheltenham & Morecambe, draws with Port Vale & Wycombe and defeat at Plymouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crewton Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Plymouth won't be played until later in the season now, so I fancy us to stay unbeaten in the league in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
