Apparently we have played Birmingham 15 times in the last 20 years and have only won 3 of them. That includes not beating them in the last 5 meetings. They don't appear to be a team we enjoy playing.
3 points from the first 3 games and still in the play off places. WBA (H) next who haven't won in 4 games, then Huddersfield (A) and Stoke (H) who've both just lost 2 on the bounce. Don't think we'll win all 3 but would be nice to come away with 6 points at least, putting us at 39 halfway through the season

I really hope this point versus Bournemouth instills some much needed belief and self-confidence in the team. Sometimes we give too much respect to the opposition and are our own worst enemies in that we give away possession and goals cheaply. If we play with the mental strength we showed in fighting back today and play the same way for the full 90 minutes, we can beat anyone. Hope Rose, Hamer, Waghorn and JCS are fit by next weekend. Our bench is a little barebones at the minute.

Old thread, I know but didn't see any point in starting a new 'next games' thread.
Anyway our next 5 games.
We have 3 at home, and our next 2 away games are Cardiff and Peterborough.
If we are not convincingly in a play off position by the end of these we are likely to miss out this season I think.
A minimum of 10 points needed.
