Our next 6 games...

Have you been to Stoke? Not the most critically aware footballing crowd. I hate the place. One of the few places where herding of away fans is still practiced. It is the only place where I don't mind as it protects you from their fans. Their goalie scoring after 13 seconds did nothing to endear me to the place either. Still, I'm going, of course. We'll win 1-0.

 

Been to Stoke once , back in the rasiak days.

 

Is the extra point awarded for Virgil making the Scousers cry?

 

Absolutely. Henceforth, any club beating Scouserhamptonenvypool at Anfeelletdown will receive an extra point by order of FIFA.

 

Stoke (A) 1-1
Newcastle (H) 1-0
WBA (H) 0-0
Brighton (A) 0-1
Burnley (H) 0-0
Liverpool (A) 2-0

9 points, 2 wins, 3 draws, 1 loss.
Can't see us conceding too many goals but still feel we'll struggle up front.
Hopefully Saintsfcfan prediction is closer than mine.

 

And I bet you've only just got home. Got to be the ****tiest place to escape from as well as everything else! Loved that Rasiak game. If we're remembering the same game, we weren't playing well and did what Saints do on occasions and decided to turn up as Real Madrid. We won 2-1 I think? That was the play-off season, so another bleedin' false dawn. Oh the pain of being a Saints fan!

 

It was definitely towards the end of the season, think saganowski might of scored aswell. Funny but I miss those days, being back in the PL is living the dream don't get me wrong but if just doesn't have the same excitement as the football league, the play offs!

 

I'll have to check my Cats Protection diary as I've got lots of fundraisers between now and Christmas but I think I can probably make it...

 

OK, chaps. The women have invented a code. Need an Alan Turing on the case .....

 

Stoke (A) 0-2 W
Newcastle (H) 1-0 W
WBA (H) 0-1 L
Brighton (A) 0-1 W
Burnley (H) 0-0 D
Liverpool (A) 0-3 W (Van Dijk hat-trick)

A very optimistic 13 points ( and a very optimistic 1 goal scored at St Mary's)

 

Hmmm... I thought my English was pretty good considering it's my second language

 

Sssh, Helen. Maintain our feminine mystery.

 

I think that men are confused enough by women as it is...

 

I don't agree, Helen. It's women who are confused by men. We men know that we are shallow creatures who are blessed with brains that can do sex, cars and football (but clearly only one of these at a time) and little else. Get past about 45 and you stop the car lust thing; past 50 and the sex thing is reduced to either thinking about it or talking about it. So there's not a lot left after that. Women confuse themselves by assuming we are capable of greater depth.

 

Bump... updated OP.

So 4 out of 6 games in and currently on 5 points with a tough tough two games to complete the 6.

I predicted 11 so probably won't get that...

 

Previous predictions with actual results.

Stoke (A) Draw......... (L)
Newcastle (H) Win.....(D)
WBA (H) Draw............(W)
Brighton (A) Win........(D)
Burnley (H) Win
Liverpool (A) Loss

So far, we should have 8 points according to my predictions, but have only 5. We need to beat Burnley and Liverpool to achieve my prediction of 11 points. In my defence I must have been having a really good day when I made my prediction.

 

I predicted 8. Lowly prediction but might happen now. On the plus side I will probably be more optimistic than some about our tough run coming up. It's saints after all.

 

Predicted 6 with losses to Liverpool and Stoke, draws with WBA, Brighton and Burnley and beating Newcastle. 1 point from the remaining 2 games and I have nailed the points tally.

 

I went for 10. We have 5. May struggle to get to 10 now, but we are half way there...but maybe we are Livin' on a Prayer

 

Take my hand, we'll make it I swear
