Well, I do still believe we will stay up but I really do see Wigan next week as the most important fixture we have left. If we win it, I won't be worried. If we lose it, I will become morre worried than I have been all season because it will drag us in.
We are only two points off the 40 mark, yes. But we've been pushing that 40 point mark for months now. Our last win was Blackpool at the end of January, and I think we've managed one point since then! We are in complete freefall now and if we survive, it's simply down to the form we were in before the January window. No offence to Wigan, but the only reason I haven't been worried is because I've been looking at that fixture, at home, as the fixture that can keep us up. But given our poor form, the last couple of Wigan games, and the fact that the Stadium of Light has not exactly been a fortress for us this season then I dunno, I think if we concede first then you'll beat us.
