Essjayess 307 Posted September 6, 2015 A straw poll after 4 games in?...ok as its just for fun. Recent years for City to finish 18th with 33 points. Why break with tradition, lets go with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted September 6, 2015 struggle to identify 3 weaker squads than ours so going for 18th with watford and Sunderland below us. Could all change for the better if Mbokani manages to hit the ground running Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 7,384 Posted September 6, 2015 Pointless speculation after 4 games.if we are less than a point per game after 12 matches we will be pretty much nailed on certainties for the drop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lappinitup 629 Posted September 6, 2015 Slight correction for you Bor, I''m fairly confident of a top half finish which means 10th or above. If I''m tied down to one spot I''ll say 9th (slightly less optimistic than Herman). [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Green and Yellow 0 Posted September 6, 2015 ]I think it''s going to be very tight down there. It''s a good league and getting relegated is no shame, I think we''ll finish 19th. We concede too many goals.Best way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We will know where we are after a dozen games and we will be there soon enough.I approach this season as every season with a little bit of hope tempered with a certain measure of fear. I hope we will be good enough and I fear we won''t be.So somewhere between 12th and 20th is as far as I will go for now.[:D] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katie Borkins 1 Posted September 6, 2015 I''ll average that out to 16th Ricardo [B]I think of this more as an emotional barometer than science per se... most of the people prepared to take a punt so far think we will stay up, but it''s interesting to gauge opinion - however unscientific/subjective/meaningless :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katie Borkins 1 Posted September 6, 2015 35 votes so far11 suggest 18th or lower = 31.4% for relegation, 68.6% for staying up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alchemist 4 Posted September 6, 2015 Giving us false hope with a decent run during the festive period, then complete capitulation for the final few games and agonisingly just missing out:18th Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeattleCanary 0 Posted September 6, 2015 Splutcho nailed it on the head for me. Tough league, and we ship too many goals against the teams in and around our standard. 19th placed finish. Not enough squad depth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HertsCanary93 222 Posted September 7, 2015 I can see the 14th-18th spots being very close this year, where even just an extra point or goal difference could easily equate to a place in the table (or two). I''m pretty sure we will be in this zone.I''ll say bang in the middle and go for 16th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
