If 40pts is the cut-off point, we are only seven points from safety.
Saturday's Aston Villa v QPR is probably the pick of the six-pointers; but as far as we are concerned; Wigan v Newcastle is just as important.
We said three weeks ago that we (NU-Mad) expected Reading, QPR and Aston Villa to go down ... and we won't be changing our mind ... for now anyway.
