I’ll no doubt be accused of being premature here, but hear me out because, I’m told that in Rooney’s tenure we have “achieved” fewer points than any other team, which is obviously a huge concern.
Also clearly 9/39 is not eve close to staying up form.
So, on the basis of planning ahead……
22 games left. If we’re generous 45 points MAY, this season, keep us up - another 18.
Where they coming from?
In my opinion we have some real no-hopers in there:
Leeds, Leicester, Ipswich, WBA, Southampton, Hull. If we get anything at all from any of those it would be a bonus. There are some other “toughies” in there too
Anyway just wiping out the no-hopers, 16 games to get (a minimum of) 18 points…….compared to less than 0.25 PPG so far.
Thoughts?
Apologies I obviously meant less than 1/4 of the points available so far, but anyway much less than 1 point per game
Who are the ‘no hopers’ mate you’ve wiped out?
Stoke hadn’t won since October then they rocked up at fortress St Andrews and made it look like a leaky bucket.
Classing Rotherham as no hopers? We managed a massive 0-0 against them.
Gotta put our lot into this category current form.
The no hopers are the 6 he mentioned I presume 😉

Right... no hopers as in we wont get anything from those? Got ya - thought he was classing the proverbial bottom 3 as no hopers but get it now!!
It's a good post and it's pretty honest. We are all saying 7 p0ints needed from the first 3 Christmas games. We could end up with one. Then there's Leeds. He's Gorra gew Tom.
