That Blackburn game is probably going to bite us in the arse!
I agree but not just Blackburn is it? 16 draws and some ridiculous defeats. Promotion should have been in the bag given the quality of our squad so difficult to understand what's gone wrong. Complacency probably the main issue.
Win the next two - or just get more points that Brentford and it's immaterial.
100%, said to my old man that even if we'd have turned 4 of those 16 draws into wins we'd be up by now...6 defeats is great, but it's those tight games we should have won that may cost us. At the end of the day, that's football and we'll see what we have after 46 games.
You could also argue that we've dug out draws where we could have got nothing which has given us extra points to put us 2nd, rather than just top 6. Barnsley at home (2 down), late equalisers vs Reading at home Derby, Fulham and Wigan away...
Exactly. We rescued and lost points over the course of the season.
