OP yo I have read some old poo on here, but you reckon only 10 points from 13 games, it will be 17 at least
12 games left and we are averaging 1.21 points per game so far which would be another 14-15 points. Our form over the last 8 games is 1.375 points per game. If we keep that form up we'll end up with 56 or 57 points. Think Ollie should set them a target of 60 points.
I agree, we seem to be getting stronger and better and there's a great team ethic now. Even if do the old win one draw one lose one we would end up with 56 points.
There are 13 games left, enough to get the 55 points at least, at our current average points per game. We need 55 to be safe based on history. But sheet happens.
RTID think you have been a tad reserved in your prediction mate, surely we should be able to get more than ten points from the remaining fixtures. I'd be very disapointed if we don't get at least four points from the next three games. If we can't manage a win from at least one of the Cardiff or Barnsley game I might as well put a bullet through my head, how depressing wouldn't that be?! As I said Derby away a sure win, they are the perfect team to play with our away setup. But most important is our position in the table. For us to go down there will be at least six teams who needs to out-perform us, I just can't see that happening with what IH has put in place.
My guess is 50-53pts at the end of the season. I only see Wigan or Blackburn making 45, 48 max. As said previously, there are definitely 3 teams worse than us in this league.
We have 7 points from those first 4 games RTID, 5 more than you predicted which shows that we're moving in the right direction. We're also unbeaten in March thus far - W2 D1 L0 - with Rotherham (H) and Derby (A) to come. We could have those 10 points on the board before the month's out.
I am very pleased that we are now approaching EVERY game as WINNABLE. We have customised tactics and a 1st team selection for each individual match. To make it even better, we are COMPETITIVE, ENTERTAINING and getting RESULTS!
Tx Mate. As I wrote earlier, thrilled to be wrong. Yesterday was important as most of us had it down as a loss. Instead we had a gutsy display and thoroughly deserved point. Onwards and upwards.
I'll go along with the Derby prediction. Judging by the body language of the Derby players against Brighton, they don't want to know
In that case please please please predict that we will lose every game from now on. Ollie's target I suspect will be to get more than JFH. 61. That is well within our grasp. 14 points from 27. Something that seemed unthinkable six weeks ago when we either played for draws or failed to hang on to leads in the games where we were on top
Cheers. That will take us to the verge of the play offs and a short hop next season into the promotion zone. Well we can all dream?
We are safe. Rotherham are as good as gone, Wigan are on a poor run and I reckon Burton will take the drop too. Oh, a promotion push next season too!!! U Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrs!!
