A heavy blow but not a fatal one

Normally, I’d do a write up of the previous match the day after, but having read many of the messageboards, I don’t think much more can be added. It was a dire result, a poor performance – particularly defensively – and it’s a worry that we can play so badly with a local derby coming up, especially considering our poor record in local derbies this season.

Trap Door

How many points will guarantee Premiership safety this year? According to most pundits, 41, 42 or maybe 43 points will see Premiership clubs stay above the relegation trap door – higher than the oft-vaunted 40 points total most teams look at the start of the season. However, I believe this is wrong – I’ve said in the past 36 points would do it, and I’m still confident no more than 38 will be needed.
