yeah, the overall picture is kind of in the balance right now it seems

i guess the next few games will show us whether we are still on a general trend of improving and gradually becoming a decent Championship team. Perhaps with a shot at making the playoffs.

Or whether we are actually a bit s**t, and just went on an isolated decent run thanks to some backs to the wall defending and a few wonder goals.
