    Fulham (h) - win
    Birmingham (a) - win
    Wigan (h) - win
    Burton (h) - win
    Sheff Wed (a) - lose
    Leeds (h) - draw
    Preston (h) - win
    Cardiff (a) - win
    Barnsley (h) win

    8 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss seems realistic, giving us 102.

    Sounds about right. Being optimistic I'd say 96-97 but 94 is more likely.

    That's 17 points from 10 games, we've averaged way more than that...Was that one of Pruttons predictions?

    17 would be win 5, draw 2 and lose 3, we'll surely do better that that?

    Fulham, Shef Wed and Leeds are the tough games, all the rest look fairly routine.

    6 wins 2 draws 2 loss

    20 points

    Grand Total 97 would be my guess, I'm being a bit generous though with 3 home wins. We could easily get 3 away wins and 3 points from the home games. Yes we are looking THAT poor at home.

    Fulham is the only match I'd be worried about. So let's not panic when we lose it.

    We can afford 1 defeat or 2 draws only in the last 9 games if we are going to do this (which we aren't in reality).

    Bastard I'm already 2 points down. I think after today it is unrealistic to expect any more wins at home. So I'm predicting we will get another 13 points and finish on 90 points.

    Well, this bet is looking pretry unlikely to come in now. We need 22 points from 8 games so that's 7 wins, 1 draw and zero losses as a minimum.

    It was good value all the same so worth the punt.
