Bolton - 2 games, 6 points
Forest - 2 games, 6 points
Leeds - 3 games, 3 points
Leicester - 3 games, 2 points
Brighton - 3 games, 1 point
Boro - 2 games, 0 points

Good results for us tonight, with Leicester and Leeds only drawing, and Brighton losing. We're now just 5 points behind Leicester, 3 behind Forest and 2 behind Brighton. There's a nice cushion of 2 points over Leeds too. Leciester only have 1 win in their last 8 games which is shocking form at this stage of a season, and Brighton will also be worried after only picking up 1 point in their last 3 games.

Get a win at Ipswich and we could get into the play off spots.

One game at a time guys, I'm sure that is what the team are looking at, so lets not get too excited or overconfident. On the law of averages we are bound to lose a game soon, and as Ipswich are no push overs it could be on Saturday, but fingers and everything else I can find crossed :pray: I hope the team can keep the run going.

Team confidence looks high at present so long may that last!!!
Depression is just a state of mind, supporting Bolton is also a state of mind hence supporting Bolton must be depressing QED

too right - they are managed by Mick McCarthy - how could anyone possibly imagine we could beat a team that he is managing?

give your heads a shake you positive vibe-mongers!

Sorry, FiO, but yon phrase/reasoning [sic] "law of averages" is one of my most hated footballing phrases. Quite simply, these things don't even themselves out.

indeed - if you flip a coin and get 48 consecutive heads - the next flip is still 50/50 chance (unless the coin turns out to be rigged!!) of head or tail...

Had a dream last night that Poyet jumped ship and went to Reading, Billy Davis fell off the wagon and went on an almighty month long bender and our run of good form came to end with a 3-1 drubbing at Ipswich.

Not evening themselves out, is different though? Averages don't necessarily mean equity?

We have the 20th most impressive away form in this league at the moment. If that doesn't even itself out some at Ipswich (who have the 19th most impressive home record), then surely we're domed?
