10 games to go and I think we are of all the assumption that we need 7/10 wins.
It effectively means we can lose 3 games or lose a game and draw 3 but win the rest.
Pompey are top and Northampton are no mugs and so come through those two unscathed and it will make it interesting as suddenly the odds then reduce to 5 wins from 8 games.
That's all we can hope for at this stage of the season that we carry on reducing the odds.
And if you think that's impossible, when a lot had written the season off after Cheltenham, we then needed 10 wins from 14 games. That sounded well out of our reach. 7 from 10 sounds better - 5 from 8 would look even better.
Massive long shot and am still not sure I have that faith in this side but let's see where we are after the next two games.
