What will happen is 3 points from the lot

 

This.

 

I’m pretty sure that Still is targeting a win in every game. Surely that’s true of most managers? The reality of course, along with our own predictions, is very different. So the expectation of the manager and club is 18 points hopefully.

I can’t remember any manager after a game saying “happy with that, I didn’t expect to win it anyway”

 

Yeah, in reality we should be looking to win them all but it rarely works like that.
I would reasonably expect to win the home games and try and get a win or two or maybe some draws in the away games although Bristol City looks tough and Sheff Utd will want to stop the rot with a new manager.

What I predict based on what i've seen from us this season is

Hull (A) D
Boro (H) D
Sheffield United (A) L
Derby (A) W
Swansea (H) W
Bristol City (A) L

8 points

I desperately hope i'm wrong and we can see a mode of football that is progressive and good to watch but also effective although that may take time.

Already one point down on what was a pessimistic forecast and if we play like that again against Boro then it's not looking good.

 

Hull W
Boro L
Sheffield L
Derby D
Swansea W
Bristol City L

7 points

 

Oh great another Saintmagic.

 

Difference is Ian would probably class that as a good return.

 

Bit hard to distinguish between prediction and expectation really. Win some, lose some I reckon.

What do I expect from those games? No idea, sorry. I'm kind of optimistic, except when I'm not. Draw at Hull, beat Boro I expect. Then go from there.

 

I expect that not one game will be 3-1.

 

And it probably keeps us below Portsmouth for another few games. Happy days

 

Until today…

We might be ok as Boro play football. We are just going to get bullied by every team that plays direct.

 

First prediction correct

 

+2 points up on my forecast, we are getting there.

 

Forgot about this thread, 6 was the correct answer

 

Oops.

 

Yeah and you were calling Ian another Magic for predicting 7 points!...
