West Brom (13th)
Bristol City (11th)
Cardiff (16th)

And we have drawn with:
Birmingham (6th)
Coventry (15th)

Upcoming fixtures against:
QPR (20th)
Wednesday (23rd) and
Millwall (18th)

I agree - Cardiff apart, you could rationalise away the other games so far this season as being against decent opposition while we were still bedding in new players. I'd say we need at least six points from the next nine not to be considering pressing the panic button.
