How are U's fans feeling about relegation battle?

Things can change pretty fast in the midst of a Championship relegation scrap, hey Oxford fans?

Things were looking incredibly rosy at Kassam Stadium at 16:54 BST on Saturday with Oxford United leading Watford 2-0 and set to exit the relegation zone at the expense of Portsmouth.

However, seconds later Pompey snatched a 97th-minute winner at Middlesbrough to end an eight-match winless streak just as the final whistle sounded in Oxfordshire.

Fast forward to Tuesday night and Portsmouth picked up another win against a promotion chaser, Ipswich, at Fratton Park and climbed to 19th, now four points clear of the U's.

With four games remaining Matt Bloomfield's side lie 22nd, two points adrift of fourth-bottom West Brom, whose goal difference is one worse.

Three of Oxford's final four games are against sides in, or chasing the play-offs, in Derby on Saturday (12:30), Wrexham and Millwall, with the visit of lowly Sheffield Wednesday in between.

How are you feeling, U's fans? How many points do you think will be enough to survive? Is it a straight shootout with West Brom, or can second-bottom Leicester mount a comeback from three points back, and can Blackburn and Portsmouth be dragged back into it?
