10 Game Countdown....

[Mid Sussex Royal]

If we lose the three home games to QPR-Wigan-Villa, one point per game overall may not be enough

We need to beat these sides.

We MIGHT get away with drawing, but home defeats will be very serious


I think QPR, Villa, Wigan and Saints are all capable of winning on our patch

Yes but we have only lost 3 out of 13 at home to Man U, Arsenal and Spurs. We are not easy to beat at home.

Pressure is now on as we need to find a win from an extra fixture....that will be Liverpool at home.

Five wins from safety.


Everton V Reading
Reading V Aston Villa WINNABLE
Man Utd V Reading
Arsenal V Reading
Reading V Southampton WINNABLE
Reading V Liverpool WINNABLE
Norwich V Reading
Reading V QPR WINNABLE
Fulham V Reading WINNABLE
Reading V Man City
West Ham V Reading

West Ham & Norwich are winnable IMO.

[SPARTA]

Enough of the winnable games. Reading throw those away. I expect wins against Arsenal, United and City and possible one more home draw.

According to Reading FC on Facebook we're only 1 point from safety....... er, assuming nobody else scores any more points this season and our goal difference is supperior

Crap teams always take a big scalp. QPR had Chelsea, Southampton thumped City, Villa beat Liverpool and Wigan dicked Tottenham. Everton don't quite count, so it's our turn.

You're right, i'm referring to "the big six" rather than the actual best teams. That and i'm clearly clutching at straws. I recon we'll have a chance against L'pool.

Run it again on Sunday .....

What is interesting about that, though, is that on season-long form, the current figure to stay up is 33 points.

I am sticking with five wins from safety. Think it's all very clear that next week is season defining!

So you think that one of the other three with 24 points or less are going to end up with at least 38? I've got to say I doubt it.

You will need 38 points to stay up!

On average you need less than that, and this is looking like a lesser year anyway.
