The February Run In

We are now closer to the top 6 (6 points off) than relegation (11 points off) so we'd be silly to not think we Could have a go and I think we have more than enough quality to do so.

February is our toughest month by far with two games a week against:

Northampton (H)- 3 points already
Ipswich (A)
Burton (H)
Peterborough (H)
Rochdale (H)
Portsmouth (A)
Donny (H)
Charlton (A)

To stay in the top 6 hunt we're going to need at least 5 wins which is very doable

Northampton (already a win), Burton, Rochdale are must wins.

Peterborough and Donny are teams we have already done well against this year away from home.

Ipswich, Charlton, and Portsmouth away are all going to be difficult but I fancy us to get at least 4 points from those three.

Win the three must win games at home, get one win from Donny and Peterborough and 4 points away from Ipswich, Pompey, and Charlton and that's 16 points which would put us at 50 points from 31 played which will put us in prime position to push for the playoffs come the end of the season.

Anything more than 16 would be brilliant.

The squad is getting healthier and beginning to show real signs of togetherness and quality.

League 1 is very weak this year so the spots in the Championship are up for grabs.

February is our toughest month, but we've shown time and time again that we play to the level of opposition so I fancy us to excel through these fixtures and put us in a real position to challenge for the Championship.

Wonder how many would have predicted three postponements! 🙄
