From Harry's latest interview sounds like Dawson should be back by next weekend but god knows who will be paired with him. No mention of how serious King's injury was or how long Bassong will be out for. He just makes clear that Woody won't be back any time soon at all :(

Bolton a doing pretty crap even for their standards at the moment, though, only one point at home so far, and we've already got two away wins, albeit with King and Modric...

All depends on how we respond from two defeats and losing our two most important players... A good performance and result at Preston and we should be looking at going back to our form of the first four games...

These are the vital games for us. We are not in the same league as the Chels/Man Yoos but these are the games we need to win starting with Burnley Saturday and then moving on from there - all 4 are winnable and we should be disappointed with any points dropped. Man Yoo's top 4 record last season was the worst of the lot but they still won the league - we won't do that obviously but we need to beat our inferiors and these 4 are all inferior...

I reckon 7-9 points. Mind you, our CB pairing could end up being Gomes and Pav at this rate, in which case 5 points would be an achievement.

We must win the 2 home games and look to remain unbeaten in the 4, this would give us somewhere between 8 and 12 points from them.

I think the hardest game will be Pompey for obvious reasons, the atmosphere there will be electric.

Yeah, Bolton away looks the toughest there. The other three I'd be looking for nothing less than 9 points.

Nothing LESS that 12 points (from 4 games) will do IF we have any thoughts of being a TOP 5 team. While the SHOCKING EPL Refereeing continues we can expect no favors. It just about sums up the rotten state of the UK (sorry Scotland, NI and Wales!).
With some luck...and a strong squad performance, we should have 24 points very soon? From there on we can 'canter' to CL placing (easy? It all depends of Santa and the Easter Bunny....from now on?) COYS!

Basong should be fit for next week. A bang on the head never hurt anyone :wink:
