Remaining games - a drag, or an interesting end to the season? 09:05 - Mar 11 with 717 viewskernowhoop

We play:

Middlesbrough (currently 9th in the table), Leeds (1st), Stoke (20th), Cardiff (21st), Oxford (18th), Bristol City (7th), Preston (16th), Swansea (15th), Burnley (3rd), Sunderland (4th).

If we assume that Oxford and those below are still in a relegation battle and Middlesbrough and above are in a promotion/play-off battle, it leaves only the matches against Preston and Swansea looking dull. In the other games, we shall be playing motivated teams. I hope that Marti can keep our lads motivated. Too many slip-ups and we shall begin to face 'must-win' games.

Only mildly interesting - we're not going up and we're not going down.

I’d love to see us bloody the noses of Leeds and Burnley but it’s got the feel of a few being 5% off it as contracts wind down and assuming those aren’t extended that’ll only worsen. Chances are we bumble our way to a win or two as most teams are as good/bad as we are. Be nice to send Cardiff towards the drop but think they’ll be fine.

I just want to see us go out and try and win every game, be really competive and give us fans some fun afternoons/evenings

We still need 2 more wins to be safe imo and we should be aiming to get more points than last season

This season is tailing off badly. Having a team of mainly soon to be out of contract and loan players doesn’t help. Hope Cifuentes mixes it up a bit in the remaining games.

More points than last season is Marti's oft-stated aim. The recent run has made that look somewhat harder.

It's been my hope since day one...bit of stability, signs of progress, some half decent football along the way...which I think is more or less what we've had so far, albeit going about it in a strange way.

Once we hit the magic 50, I'd like to see us prioritise those who'll definitely be here next season - tho I accept that's not 100% possible.

With our lack of squad depth - although that is something which has thankfully become *a bit* less of a problem this season - and our lack of quality compared with the division's best teams, we usually need everyone to be fit, in form and putting in maximum effort, plus a bit of luck, to put together a string of wins.

With that in mind, and as the playoffs become less and less likely plus some players realise their futures might lie elsewhere, I'm expecting some disappointing results between now and the end of the season. I won't be happy about that but that is what I am preparing myself for.

I do think we'll stay up, but I'd like two or three more wins very soon. Please 🙏

2016/17 we reached 50 points after 38 games.

The players knocked off, we lost seven of our last eight and Blackburn went down with 51 points:

This is pretty much where I am.

I’m not totally relaxed yet though until we get a couple more wins.

I also enjoy winning even if there’s technically nothing to play for. It’s a good habit to get into and great for our younger players in particular.
