They look pretty tricky Middlesborough - Away Birmingham - Home Brighton - Home We've already played 3 of the current top 6 and these are the other 3. Could say we are getting the harder fixtures out of the way early. But in all honesty I'm struggling to see more than 3 points from these games.
You might be right, but I'll bet you none of them are looking forward to playing us! There are no runaway winners in this league, IMO. Everyone is beatable by everyone, home or away. Not sure if that makes everyone good, bad or indifferent, but there's not a lot to choose from.
Good points Jocky lad, but they do give cause for concern. I too doubt any of those three will be loking forward to playing us, whatever loking means......
I dunno. Maybe they wouldn't be, I seem to think we seem to do well at Boro so they probably won't be. Brighton seem to be able to beat anyone at the moment though. Question. If we don't win any of these 3 games do we think Cellino will pull the trigger on Rosler. I don't think he should personally but there's always that doubt.
Not sure Jock, with the way you said the above I thought you might be speaking about Thor's brother...........
I rather cheekily corrected my spelling, and because you didn't quote me, people will be wondering what the hell you're talking about! Until I fessed all here, right enough!
Nah... We had already presumed you had fecked it up.... Proof is not required when scribbling on here.
Two home games so you would want 6 points and 7 if you were seeking promotion. I believe 4 would put us on course for mid table so I would take 5 - Buckley will also be available for two of those games.
Did Double over middlesbrough last season , birmingham draw 1-1 home and away last season and brighton did double over us so last season leeds got 4 points out of these games and i think leeds have improved since last season or they were before international break but we won our last match so i think the 3 games , 2 at home to birmingham and brighton and away to middlesbrough will yeild 5 or 6 points this season out of 9 points .
Brighton and Birmingham have especially improved considerably this season. I would say Middlesborough have also improved this season with big signings. We have improved no doubt but we rarely take into consideration that other teams have as well.
Very tough to call but if we have improved and provided he drops Wootton and Mowatt 4 points is realistic
Well they've won their last 4 in a row and 3 of those were at home. In fact, they have only dropped points once at home this season and thats when Bristol City shocked them with a 1-0 win. This will be a very very testing game against a team on top of form. I would be happy with a scraped draw.
Josh I see what you mean however they have played mediocre teams at home so far Bolton who I tipped for relegation MKD finding their feet and Bristol C Brentford is the only hard game and yes the won that quite well 3-1 but I still say they are not invincible yet
