On current form we will be safe...just.
Have looked at the form of the teams around us and if we all continue to pick up points (and goal difference)in the remaining games of the season at the same rate as in the last six games then we will avoid relegation by two points. Not something I would look forward to as it would mean that we wouldn't be safe until the penultimate game of the season at earliest. Given that it is so tight we really really need to improve fast.
For those of you interested the bottom of the table would look like this:
17th - Ipswich - 47 (GD -16)
18th - Norwich - 47 (GD -23)
19th - Luton - 46
20th - Hull - 45 (GD -19)
21st - Leeds - 45 (GD -26)
22nd - QPR - 45 (GD -27)
23rd - Burnley - 44 (GD -10)
24th - Southen - 44 (GD -22)
So Leeds would flukily avoid relegation and Burnley would crash and burn. Interestingly Barnsley projected 53 points which would take them well out of the battle, I hadn't realised they were doing that well.
