Given that automatic promotion has disappeared over the horizon (9 point deficit with watford after just 7 games) we can now look forward to a play-off place push - but can we?
Given our truly awful away record stretching back 3 and a bit seasons I reckon we'll do well to get 12 points on our travels this season including the one we already have. Since 75 points is normally needed to stand a chance of 6th place that means we'd need 57 points from our remaining home games. (75 - 7 already -11 more to come from away games). Since we have only 20 games left now we look as if we need to win 19 of them. Some hope.
Of course our away form could suddenly improve dramatically. Unfortunately there isn't one club where i would feel City should win in this division. However as Mumby says, "Don't doubt our ambition"
P.S. Although I'm not a nurse beating Hull City goal scorer I still regard yself as a City fan!
