You know what, history counts for nothing, we don't have the same team as last season, no one does, past season's form doesn't really help. It keeps journalists in work thats all. Whats important is now, not whether we can rely on historical facts. Do you think Steve Bruce picks his team and then looks at the last seasons championship results to see if we can win? Of course not. We will get promoted because we get results, not because of historical bs. |

I do believe this is the most sensible post I have seen on this forum in nearly 9 years. Apart from anything I have posted, of course. :rolleyes: |

We've got too many games that I don't fancy us to win if we play like we've been playing since Christmas. |

...aah but....Derby was before Christmas. Take the Newcastle game away and I can't think of one game where we've really impressed since the turn of the year. |

2 in the league since we beat QPR on boxing day isn't it? Can I borrow your stats because they're far more impressive than mine? It's not the Cardiff and Derby games that bother me so much as the Naarch, Leicester and Wolves games. It's the ones that we expect to win that we have a problem with. |
