still see enough points there within our reach playing just as we are
6 games per month
12 points from both sets of 6 plus only a draw v bolton gets us 90 points

 

[Superblades]

I reckon we will get 26 points which will take us to 91. No idea if that will get us over the line.

been discussed in another thread

no team on 65 points after 33 games and that's us and no one can better that has ever finished on more than 91 points , and that was wigan , other than that 88 points has been the best

it could get bettered by 2 or 3 points , but only by us

 

[Stretch]

As a betting man my prediction would be - 6 wins, 3 draws, 3 losses. Add that to a draw v Bolton and it's 87 points. Should be good enough for 2nd at least.

 

[blade too long]

well we have 10 games v bottom half teams to play ie 12th to 24th

in the other 14 games v these clubs weve won 10 and drawn 2
we need to win just 8 of these and a couple of draws from the other 5 games

 

[Joe Boltons Left Foot]

Hope we are aiming for 101 points

 

[seanbeenstattoo]

I think we should have tons more threads all about what might happen in a couple of months. There haven't been nearly enough of them and there must be thousands more ways to say we will win lose or draw this game and that game.
Lots more of these threads needed.

Promotion v port vale

Party v Chesterfield

 

[Bruce Wayne]

One more Saturday home game from Feb to the end of the season is bizarre, wank and pisses me off.

[WORKSOPBLADE]

theres only 3 saturday away games too
13 games left 9 not on saturday

4 away Rochdale, Oldham, Northampton and MK

 

[blade too long]

4 away Rochdale, Oldham, Northampton and MK

so there is

we are actually unbeaten away from home in midweek games this season

 

[seanbeenstattoo]

All our remaining games will be played over 90 minutes comprising 2 halves each of 45.

 

[Ted Hemsleys chads]

I'd be amazed if the games were played over 90 minutes comprising 2 halves, each of 45. I'd wager there'll be time added in each and every game by the referee to cover injuries or other events that could cause a delay.

 

[dingledog]

All our remaining games will be played over 90 minutes comprising 2 halves each of 45.

But will they all have a referee on the payroll of the opposition?

 

[Jon P]

What a treat 6 games a month it's by the way..my working week is made so much better when we have a game on the Tuesday!

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

I'd be amazed if the games were played over 90 minutes comprising 2 halves, each of 45. I'd wager there'll be time added in each and every game by the referee to cover injuries or other events that could cause a delay.

All adding up to 90 minutes

 

[larkymasher]

based on my lack of knowledge and outstanding guess work, this is how i see the league finishing...... and i will be having a £10 wager on it. May be not on the points finished on but certainly on how the teams will finish.

1st Sheffield Utd 97points 2nd Fleetwood 89points 3rd Bolton 84 points 4th Scunny 83 points

 

[blade too long]

I dont think Fleetwood have the depth to overtake both bolton and scunny

their best win was at our place but it was our least energetic display of this era and wilder tried a change that didnt work

if you look at Fleetwoods amazing run , theyve beaten us and scraped a win over bradford but the rest are odd goal wins over the bottom half teams.
Their run in is the hardest of the top 4, they have to play 8 of the top 10
and play scunny and bolton in consecutive games 4th 11th march
I think we will win the league with 90 to 93 points and dont really care after that but think scunnys ability to score goals will just edge out bolton on around 85 points to 83 fleetwood getting 81/2 points
