Certainly be 5 points better off since restart.
From where we have come from in last 3 years to where we are now is great progress. Some of the hysterical responses to our recent run kind of sum up how we ended up without the same manager at the end of the season as we had at the start for so many years. Sabri's worked well with a very limited squad. Good team, limited squad (a good debate elsewhere). This 2 games a week period has been brutal and our squad hasn't been good enough to cover likes of Cash and Lolley, who bring so much to the team both individually and as a pairing.
The Barnsley game was a car crash but we should still make playoffs going in as underdogs, pressure has shown on WBA, Fulham and Brentford at various times recently, so at full strength on a decent day we can match anyone.
Getting to playoffs is a monumental achievement, anything else is a bonus. Last July when Sabri was appointed there were plenty saying Who? and he will be gone by Christmas. (Not necessarily here).
Playoffs here we come......I think.
