Well, we are roughly one third of the way through the season - just a shade less. 4 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. If we can maintain that, that's a projected 45 points which leaves some wiggle room. We still have to plan Man U and Liverpool twice. Hopefully some serious tweaking in January. I think we can do it but we all know this is a tough league.
Very true...just looking at the league table, and it's great. It seems we are at the top of the clubs who aren't expected to be pushing for Europe and other honours. It looks brilliant. I think we will keep it up, or at least, we will push on until January...and then get some new recruits to strengthen the squad.
To be honest mate , thats even a modest prediction. 1.25 pts per game comes out more like 47/48 pts. Another way to look at it is we have played 4 of the top 5 so we have played most of the top sides. I'm feeling more conident after 3 points rom yesterday, just gives us a nice cushion does'nt it. Its when we have must win games , that becomes more tense, luckily we have not put ourselves in that situation. If we can have 20pts plus at the turn ( after 19 games ) i will be more than happy as we are giving ourselves a very good chance.
Even better than all those predicted points...is the fact the team is playing with some confidence, they are playing as a team and all seem happy (well except Tarby perhaps), Neil is under no pressure and Tony F is just happy and supportive and seeming to enjoy the ride. Good times....lets hope it lasts.
