The happy clappy totally positive response
 
5 wins, 3 draws, 4 losses. 18 points (like beefy said), for a total of 58. More than happy to be wrong, as long as I'm on the low side!!

5 wins, 2 draws, 5 losses, 17 points. Had 5/3/4 for 18 points originally, but changed one to justify the 45 seconds spent on the post when simply quoting latviandream would have sufficed.

Yeah, I would set the over/under at 18. That is the pace we have maintained so far, and seems reasonable based on schedule.

If forced to place a bet on that though, I would take the over. We added Austin, Fraser is back, players like Clasie and Romeu have settled in, we were well above that pace before suffering a blip in the season..

So I will play a hunch and say 20, which matches the total from last year and should get us a Europa spot.

How on earth is that happy clappy totally positive? You have us down as drawing 3 times! <laugh>
 
What I would like is 21 to give us 1 point more than last year. The Chelsea game is a big. They are playing well now and look like scoring on every attack. It will be a test for our new-found frugalness. If we can sneak a win I think 21 is entirely possible. If not, then something around 14/15 is probably more likely.

I agree. The Chelsea game could be a yardstick for the rest of the season as a win against them opens up a 10 point gap which should put to bed any lingering hopes they have of hauling us in and grabbing 5th/6th. We then have 3 decent looking fixtures before Liverpool at home, a game in which we should be looking to nail a top 6 finish (they have games against Man City and Chelsea before coming to St Marys).
