I'd say that we've still got plenty of time, if we are still behind 3+ teams with 4 games left then yes, it's a real outside shot. As of today with so many games left and all those teams having multiple games against each other, I'm not overly concerned. I'd rather have the points in the bag of course, but for me the biggest issue is getting a consistent first XI on the pitch, do that and we have a decent chance, because we know this team and this manager can win 5 in 6 and be above those sides in a flash. We won 6 on the bounce this season, and you can pick 8 or 9 blocks of 6 games from Nov-Mar season before where we won 5 out of 6.What makes a difference to me is that we have to overtake 5 teams to make it. Let's say Coventry, for example, fall apart and we over take them. That's great, makes our job easier, but even if that happens, we still have Hull, Norwich, and Watford to overtake. Making up a 1-2 point difference over 1 team is far easier than making it up on all 5 teams. At least one of them will win every week.
