Cant see Wigan getting anywhere near 50.Think this will be the first time in a long time that 50 isn’t enough. So pretty useful to be over half way there already.
I think it'll be high points to avoid going down and low points to make playoffs this year.
Just a very tight unpredictable league.
Table after 20 games , obviously we are 2 games in hand on thisThere's only 11 points between relegation and play offs - seems smaller than previous years (happy to be corrected by those with spreadsheets).
Could be a record number of points needed to stay up and a record low number of points to get into the play offs.
A real dog-fight of a division this year.

we'd still be 12th with 26 points and we can go onto 32 points with 2 wins View attachment 27152
Can we maintain the current form? Difficult but if so then top 6 is a real possibility. If we become more inconsistent or certain players are injured/sold then mid table or bottom half.
Keep this group together and keep the players fit-that’s really the key for us.
Brilliant last paragraph!!!!!It's inevitable that we'll have a blip of a few games where we lose games we expect to win and maybe go a few without winning.
The pleasing thing is that this season, MR has shown he's adaptable, using his subs more (and better) and we've pulled ourselves up the table after a blip...quite a big blip actually at the start of the season so when it happens, we just need to ride it out and trust in the mgt team and the players.
January is crucial though. If we keep hold of the big 3-4 and get in a couple of loans as cover, we could be alright. Too many unknowns for me at the moment to try and confidently say where we'll finish.
Heart says 'top 6', head says 'stop being a fu&king idiot - there's so much that can go wrong '!
