Wigan lost though, 1 point behind them with 2 games in hand.

Erm, you do know that would still put us in the drop zone? ;)

Can their manager get Fulham up for this game after their disappointing, powderpuff performance against Spurs in the cup ?

Not too optimistic myself.

Chris Samba is training with Villa and likely to sign a short term deal with them.

What a fall from grace he's had since leaving us. Earned a lot of cash though, which for most footballers these days is all that really matters.

Just read the report, comfortable win for Fulham, Bristol have lost 10 of their last 13.

Unless they change the manager they're surely going down.

Will Bristol City sack Lee Johnson?

Probably and get a manager not a head coach

Made me laugh the other day when that bitter little man Andy Cryer was mouthing off on twitter trying to wind Rovers fans up by suggesting Steve Kean as next manager.

Silly thing to do really when his beloved City are just above Rovers and are heading downwards at an alarming rate. They've lost the plot big style and if Johnson stays they will surely be relegated. Question is will we be the 3rd club or can we get above Wigan/Burton/Forest?

How bitter will Cryer be if Rovers survive at the expense of his lot after his attempts this week to wind up Rovers fans.

Birmingham City and Villa both in free fall, Forest also look poor. They could get dragged into the mire with us Burton Bristol City and Wigan. The league really is of a poor standard this season, best of a bad bunch will stay up.

Looking back since 2010 this is what is needed to avoid the drop

2010 - 49
2011 - 48
2012 - 48
2013 - 55
2014 - 44
2015 - 46
2016 - 49

 

2013 stands out as an odd one however we are going to need about 48-50 points to be safe. We have 15 games to go with 29 on the board.

So to get 50 we need 1.4 points per game, 48 says 1.26. On season form we are getting 0.93 a game (disgrace) which would leave us on 42 ish points which would be down. We need to see about a six to eight point bounce from Mowbrey if you use season stats. If you take the last ten games our form is a little worse, coil was using the FA cup to make us look better, last ten games 0.9 points per game, which is down.

We have:

Burton Albion    A     
Derby        H
Wigan         H
Cardiff        H
Norwich        A     
Fulham        A
Preston North End    H    
Brighton    A
Reading        A
Barnsley    H
Nottingham Forest     A     
Bristol City    H     
Wolves        A
Aston Villa     H     
Brentford    A

You would have to look at home first, Wigan, Bristol City as must wins so 6 points we need 14 points from the rest where will we get them!

Hopefully when we play some of those teams, they have nothing to play for. Always a good source of points.

I did wonder about Birmingham before they got their first win under Zola. Think they're the likeliest candidates to get sucked into the scrap. Rowett may have earned them enough points before being potted though to save them. But of any team gets sucked in think it'll be them.
