So for a bit of fun...... Last season in the Premiership the sides that finished in the bottom half averaged 7 home wins and 3.4 away wins over the season, so on the assumption that we will do something similar, if you could pick just 3 of our home wins and 3 of our away wins who would they be against and why? To make it more interesting you can only pick one of last seasonâs top 6 sides in each of your H and A choices i.e. one each from Man U, Chelsea, Man C, Arsenal, Tottenham and Liverpool. Mine are..... (H) Man U - Coz they are the current champions and beating them at the Liberty would live long in the memories of the 18000 Jacks in the Liberty. (H) Wigan - No particular ill feeling towards RM, it would just be a bit special under the circumstances. (H) QPR â Neil Warnock, enough said. (A) Aston Villa â Iâve got a mate in Swansea that goes to every one of their home games which just winds me up coz he should support the Swans.....MUPPET (A) Newcastle â Mega reward for the Jack Army that makes the trek. (A) Arsenal â Would be nice to come out on top in the game between the best footballing sides in the Premiership.
I would like to do the double over QPR! win against Manu at home would be nice, we have done it before, and 6 points off Wigan would see me a very happy bunny!............. please log in to view this image
Home and away wins against Wolves, Norwich and Blackburn. I hate not putting the big sides in but realistically with those three teams being the weakest IMO if we do get embroiled in a dog fight down the bottom that's 6 wins, each a six pointer as they say....would make it marginally easier to survive. As I don't think we will struggle to that degree though I would like Home wins against Man C to enforce the point you can run a club with a sound business plan and succeed, Fulham as it the best chance we could have of beating a side that are in Europe and Newcastle as we should have done it two seasons ago and it would be a good benchmark to see how far we have progressed. As for the away games, Arsenal, the way we both play, to beat them in their own back yard would be nice, QPR being the team promoted top and Wolves again as I really dislike Mick Mcarthy, it is an irrational dislike but a dislike all the same haha
Any 9/10 wins. dont care who they are against. but that should be enough to keep us up. mind you the double over Wigan would be nice.
Would LOVE to beat Man Utd at home, the double over QPR, just because of Warnock (Nothing against fans or club), double over Wigan and beat Megamoney City away.
Home Chelsea (would love to see JT and Cole walking off after being done by the Swans) Wigan (I am not a Roberto hater, but it would be nice for the Swans fans to show him how far we have progressed) Any of the bottom 3 on the last day of the season to ensure we stay up. Away Arsenal (Fantastic to see us win in the Emirates) Villa (Former European Champions - another big scalp) Sunderland (for the journey home)
