We've not done one of these in a while, next 5 games are as follows:
Fulham H (3rd)
QPR A (5th)
Sheff Utd H (15th)
Preston H (18th)
Reading A (8th)
Luton H (9th)
Picked the games fairly arbitrarily but on the face of it doesn't look awful. The next two obviously look tough but 4 home games out of 6. You'd fancy us vs Preston, Luton, Reading and Sheff U.
Fulham - Draw
QPR - Draw
Sheff U - Win
Preston - Win
Reading - Win
Luton - Win
Too optimistic?

There's bound to be a defeat in there somewhere. The law of averages says it'll happen.

QPR - Draw
Sheff U - Lose

I can see us beating Sheff Utd and QPR, provided our defence is up to the task, especially against QPR who like to play attacking football. With the pace of our wing backs and Johnson we can break and get behind them causing their defence all sorts of problems.
I can honestly see us coming away with at least 15 points from these 6 matches (that's probably the kiss of death given now though :-/ )

Like the positivity but maybe 15/18 is pushing it, if that was averaged over a season it would give us 115 points which would comfortably be a league record so Im thinking not.
To get to the playoffs usually needs 75 points, thanks to our awful start that target became 74 points from 40 games or 1.85 points per game. We are of course well on course for that so far under Cooper. Lets say 12 points from these 6 would be excellent.
Not going to predict where those points will come from. Hope we arent too down if we do get spanked on Sunday. I dont think Luton is the home banker that some have us down for either.

I’d hope for 12 but think 9-10 is more realistic

Four home games given our record at the WFCG is a big challenge

Just one game at a time for me. Reading this thread gets my hopes up and scares me at the same time.
All about Fulham. Nothing else. Yet.
Yooooooooou Reeeeeeeeeeds.
