Someone said elsewhere that one more win would be enough to save us. That would be 49 points. I know other sides have fallen back over the Easter period, but what if we stutter now and they all start winning? Sheffield Wednesday are 23rd on 39 points. If they win their next 3 games they would overtake us. I think it is unlikely that we will fail to add more points, but a surge from below is more than possible too. We are in a good place now and I do think we will survive - but we are not yet safe in my opinion.

If you do the math you can see that it would require us to completely fall apart and for several other teams to suddenly, out of nowhere, turn things around and start winning.
If you don't think we're going to get another 3 or 4 points out of the next 7 games then you have a reason to be concerned but where's the evidence for that?
No doubt qpr will be qpr and drag things out a bit longer but I'm not worried now... Do you think Swansea fans are worried?

It would be so QPR to drag this torture out until the end of the season but, as I said, I do think we will survive. Looking at the fixtures, I am going to suggest the following:
Sheff Weds H = Draw
Plymouth A = Win
Hull A = Draw
PNE H = Loss
Leeds H - Loss
Coventry A = Loss
That equates to 51 points, which should be fine. What does anyone else think?
We surely won't lose all 6 games, I said in a preview show a few weeks ago it will be 47/48 points due to everybody playing each other. Win on Saturday and we pass that and put 10 points between us and Wednesday. That will be huge.
