Eleven Days in March and April

Eleven Days... Four Fixtures... What do we need to stay up?

Mar 30    Leeds (A)

Apr   3    Birmingham (H)

Apr   7    Derby (A)

Apr 10    Millwall (H)

with Barnsley one week later.

Obviously Brum is a six-pointer.  Win that and we could be safe.  Should we target 4 points from these eleven days?  Or can we do 5 or 6? Beat Brum and one other and we should be safe.  Beat Brum and Barnsley will see us stay up. Your thoughts?

I think realistically there's seven points there, beat Brum and Millwall, draw against Leeds.

Reality bites... 0 points from the first three matches.  Need to beat Millwall and Barnsley now.

What could possibly go wrong?

0 for all 4 games... relegation fodder I'm afraid.

Can’t argue with that, 4 losses in the trot - complete collapse.

With Barnsley to come. If I was a betting man I'd bet we are in the bottom three on Saturday night.
Parky doesn"t know what his best team is and can't pick his nose!

Although can’t imagine Barnsley are much more confident than us. Seemingly between us them and Blues now, 1/3 to go. Nobody in great form and survival is there for the taking. Impossible to call really, fair to say if we pulled off a miracle at this point it’s more to do with the dross around us than anything else.

So you're now admitting Parkinson is clueless!

I don’t think you bother to read my posts. I’ll simplify for you:

1. Squad of players awful 
2. Parkinson a limited manager - not sure he has the tools to do the job

In your second sentence Parkinson and tool go hand in hand!
He's out of his depth at this level, I got told that by a blind man on a galloping horse.

1 No the squad is mid-table quality.
2 Limited yes, the tools are fine, but just like the cowboy builder he is, he just doesn't know how to use them.
In short he is way out of his depth in this league.

How can this squad be midtable? None of them have played regularly as high as mid table in the championship standard in 3 years - literally not one of them?

I tell a lie actually - Ameobi on loan at Cardiff 15/16 (he didn’t impress much).

And that means? how many of Millwalls team have? you don't half come out with some shit to back up your Parkinson love in.

Off the top of my head, Hutchinson, Shakell, Morrison, Tunnicliffe and Saville?

The silence is deafening.

Embarrassing comment.

Off the top of my head, Pratley, Noone , Ameobi, Buckley,' ALF,

Neil Harris has done some job though, got to be manager of the season in terms of getting the most of his squad. Some really smart recruitment there.
