No, I don't mean he's been given his orders just yet.
I've been looking at the fixtures between now and the end of the season and I reckon we need to do our business in March because things are likely to be much harder in April.
Four of the next six are at the Valley and the opposition looks largely beatable;
Huddersfield (H) Sat 28th Feb - emotion and a full-house aside, we should be up for this if the two recent 3-0's weren't flash-in-the-pans.
Forest (H) Tues 3rd March - rallying now that Physcho has moved on but eminently beatable under the floodlights at the Valley - safely mid-table after their fourth win under Freedman.
Cardiff City (A) Sat 7th March - Cardiff may want this more than us by then but we have a decent record there and they are also safely in mid-table.
Blackburn (H) Sat 14th March - we owe them for the F A Cup hour exit and they are another mid-table side whose season is over.
Blackpool (A) Tues 17th March - going down and we could effectively relegate them by mid-March.
Reading (H) Sat 21st March - scrapping above us but likely to be mid-table by then and we beat them at their place.
April sees us having to go to Millwall, Wednesday, Bolton and Birmingham with only home games against Fulham and Leeds.

We certainly don't want anything hinging on the trip to the Den.
