I replied to it and I don't agree

37 points was enough last season and at this stage last season the team in 18th had MORE points than the team 18th today.

It's not entirely scientific but it'll do. My hunch is that 38 points will be enough but it may be lower.

38 points is five wins, nine draws and 11 defeats or six wins, six draws and 13 defeats.

That's not depressing. In fact we will have to perform WORSE in the final two-thirds of the season than we have in the first third to only get 38 points.

Don't sweat it.
