Is it realistic that Norwich will go on a run?

Any team can. We did. Norwich’s home form should yield 10-12 points.

If we lose all three, it certainly raises the question of whether making the playoffs is even worthwhile as all it'll show is that our chances of beating any potential opponent over two legs will be less than slim.

We need to show we can compete.

We need to be to

Sheffield United A
Norwich H
Burnley A
Watford H
WBA H
QPR A
Sunderland H
Luton A
Leeds A
Preston H

That's the run in for Bristol City. They're in 7th and on 53 points, 3 points behind us. To reach 71 points they need 6 wins from 10 games. They have 1st, 2nd and 3rd away with 4th and 6th at home. They just drew with Hull 1-1 at home against 10 men from the 14th minute.

Blackburn 52 points Middlesbrough 50 points. Both in poor form. Blackburn need 6 wins from 10 for 70 points. Middlesbrough need 7 wins from 10 for 71 points. I'd be very surprised if we need as many as 70 points for the playoffs. We're already on 56 points. 9 wins from the last 10. We only need 5 wins out of the next 10 to reach 71 points.

There's a good chance that just 1 point from our next 3 games could keep us in the top 6. Beat Derby then the playoffs start to look like a formality.

I think formality may be stretching it at this stage.

After watching Portsmouth yesterday vs Leeds, I doubt that game will be easy. Granted they are excellent at home and mediocre away, but they have a good manager and a decent squad for a newly promoted team.

I agree Portsmouth have done really really well this season. No won't be easy but it's at home and I fancy us more in that game than say Plymouth, Luton or Hull away based on those clubs likely to have a lot on games against us.

10 games left of the season.

Derby A
Sunderland H
SU A
Burnley H
Pompey H
Hull A
West Brom H
Plymouth A
Luton A
Boro H

Need to carve 4 wins and a couple of draws. By the time we play Luton and Plymouth they might be relegated by then and Boro out of the play off picture. No doubt some tricky games in the last 10.

I think we should be getting points from the bold matches. A few wins from them and we'll get into the playoffs. I do feel we're in for a bit of a negative spell against these teams around us though.

The good thing about the teams around us though, is 3/4 of them are at home. My biggest worry is we've won so many now, at some point that run HAS to end. Can we manage another 10-13 games and keep winning (or at least not losing)?

He was making a return when Stoke equalised then it all went wrong in the 97th minute for him.
