    I have a horrible feeling you might be being too optimistic predicting wins away at Newcastle and home to Palace

    Re: Predictions for the second half of the season

    30-36 points

    Re: Predictions for the second half of the season

    We'll finish on less than 32 points but stay up.

    Warnock will leave after the United game.

    Huddersfield, Burnley and Fulham will go down.

    United will finish in the top four.

    City will win the league, and the champions league.

    This was my pre-season prediction.

    Burnley (a) L
    Liverpool (h) L
    Fulham (a) L
    Palace (h) W
    Man Utd (a) L

    Total 28 points

    I haven't changed this but if I were to do it again today, I think that we're capable of getting something at Fulham & Burnley, so my revised total would be 30.

    (I had us down for 34 at the start of the season)
    My take

    All I believe is 33 points will keep you up. The gap in tnis league has gotten bigger

    We'll need to beat Man Utd last game of season to stay up and we won't

    Do you think you can stay up with C.R. in charge? Have you seen a big difference in the team since his appointment?

    I've got us on 30 points. A lot depends on who we get in during the January transfer window. In particular a half-decent striker is needed

    How can we finish on less than 32 points yet win the league and the Champions League?

    We'll finish on 32 points and win the league and champions League? Or is this a bold prediction for next season?

    I think he may have fallen in to the trap of calling Man City, 'City' as in United for Man Utd. A little hate of mine (sad I know). As for them winning the league, I'll take his money.

    I think I may have to come back to this and do it again with a clear head and without a hangover. Saying that, that may not be until the 9th of January. 😂 Even though we've only got 15 points in our first half of the season, I've got us to get 24 points in the 2nd half 😂, starting with a draw tomorrow.

    Possibly. I'm looking at the home only table which reads like this:

    11 Leicester City 9 4 2 3 12 9 3 14
    12 Wolverhampton Wanderers 10 4 2 4 12 13 -1 14
    13 West Ham United 10 4 1 5 14 16 -2 13
    14 Cardiff City 10 4 1 5 13 20 -7 13
    15 Crystal Palace 9 2 3 4 5 8 -3 9
    16 Fulham 9 2 3 4 11 19 -8 9
    17 Southampton 9 1 5 3 10 14 -4 8
    18 Newcastle United 10 2 1 7 7 15 -8 7
    19 Burnley 9 2 1 6 10 20 -10 7
    20 Huddersfield Town 10 1 2 7 4 14 -10 5

    Our two away points have come at teams who have a worse home record than us. Newcastle don't score many goals at home, Southampton rarely win at home, Fulham are beatable. We could have had something at West Ham if our defence hadn't gone awol for 15 minutes while trips to Wolves and Leicester aren't all that scary.

    7 of our remaining 10 away trips are to teams in the bottom half of the home table. 4 of our 9 home games are against teams in the bottom half of the away table. That makes interesting reading. Of our 19 fixtures so far, 11 have been against teams in the top half of the away or home table. Leicester and West Ham's record away is on a par with their home form, Everton, Brighton and Bournemouth have been poor away but good at home.

    Re: Predictions for the second half of the season

    Gosh what a good post and challenge.

    The toughest calculations to be made is March onwards when a number of factors kick in which effect the set up and motivation of these teams. At the moment it's full steam ahead to safety or top 4 , come March the process changes, as :
    Injuries and tiredness kick in .
    January transfers either fail or succeed.
    Teams become complacent as there season is safe .
    Champions League , Europa Cup , FA / Old League Cups take precdent .

    All of which may or may not effect our chances.

    Be I can't predict only prey .

    Sadly ALL our last 7 games from Saturday 30th March v Chelsea, until the end of the season are against teams either fighting against relegation or pushing for a Champions League place. None against mid-table season journeymen
