Amen to that.
Edwards and Ashby are only on loan. Although thete aren't many who'd be sorry to see the latter back at Newcastle.
Dunne, Cook Fox and Paal are all out of contract. That would leave JCS, Morrison and Larkeche. Hard to see anybody getting 30+ games per season out of JCS, so there's a huge need for movement. |

I'm not sure any of our team, not even Dunne, would warrant a place in the top 10 of the championship.
Probably quite a few between 10 and 30, though. |

Sutton went on loan before Christmas to Hanwell Town (?) and reports indicate he did OK. We signed him on a pro deal, despite interest from a number of PL clubs.
I wouldn't be surprised to see him get a runout for the 1st team before end of season. Depends how much is resting on the results. |

Even the U18s have started picking up points. 7 from last 3 games, including a 2-1@ Millwall kas Saturday. Charlie Street penalty + Rocco Friel in 89th minute.
Neither have been great up to now. |

If we do that, I'd happily revisit this thread.
Playoffs are not impossible but unrealistic, For this season, IMHO.
Frankly, looking at our March fixtures I'd be happy with anything over 5 points from those 5 fixtures. [Post edited 17 Feb 10:02]

To finish in the top 6 we'd need at least 70 points, IMO. That means another 26 or 2 points per game. Seeing as we still have to play 5 of the top 6, including the runaway top 3 at LR, I don't see the above target as realistic.
However, the development since Nov, makes me think that next season a top 6 place is achievable. If Marti and Nourry feel the same way, then the planning can start now.9 |

It depends what they do about the players who are OOC, between now and June 30.
I suspect they'll want to keep JD, Cook, Frey. Also turn Saito's loan into a perm deal. If so, it cuts down the churn to something less disruptive |

We're down to 13th. Again. Courtesy of Watford's win and Norwich draw. And, now 4 points off playoffs.
Cifuentes out!!! |

Most of the subs last night were to give squad players some game time. Good management. |

I felt that we were due a decent performance, but I didn't expect anything as good as that. Predicted 3-0. |

Comprehensive.
Apart from the goals, I thought the pressing was the major contributing factor. |

I stop predicting Chair as 1st scorer and ge does that. Then Koki is calm personified for the 2nd.
On Downside, Field and Carane have had zero influence and we've barely won a header outside the danger areas. The 3 midfield giants (sic!) are going to have to do better.
However, I can't see Derby coming back. Just like to see us improve our GD. |

Derby did spend £4m on Sangas. Also brought in Matt Ckarje on loan. Straight replacements fir Cashin & Nelson. Not sure they've done anything fir the rest of a struggling side.
If we play like we did against Eustace's prev club, then we ought to win. Suspect Rs will want to respond to Tueday's last minute sickened. I can't see how they can score. |

According to Aussie media, we've also signed Jaylan Pearman from Perth Glory for around £200k. 19yo forward. Presumably for DS, initially. |

Sky aren't allowed to show games at 3pm on Saturday. The deal that was agreed with the EFL said each Championship team would appear live 20 times. Therefore, 3 games at 12:30. Whether anybody likes it or not.
Still, football is nothing without the fans!!! |

A decent balance between Juzzie's pessimism and excessive expectations.
I think we could make a solid push for the top 6, as per Blackburn this year or Ipswich last. However, there are a lot of Ifs. Will Dunne sign a new contract and stay. Will Cook still be here and contributing at 34. Paal will be moved on. Have we got/can we find a replacement. Larkeche or Esquadinha? Can we add some pace? Who's going to deliver the roughly 60 goals we'll need.
Maybe we have to follow the Brentford model - selling favourites for top dollar and replacing with better, cheaper. Who's got faith that QPR can do that? For several seasons? |
