[lappinitup 629]

Blackburn Rovers.....(A)Shef W..... (H)Bristol C..... (H)Ipswich T......(A)B''ham C.....(A)Cardiff C.....(H)How many points do you see us getting?Tough start. Blackburn under Coyle will be well up for it. (L)Shef W. Play-off finalists and big spenders will be wanting to go one better and will see us a a big scalp. (D)Brizzle. Have been spending well and I expect to be in the top half. (D)Scum know they are due a win against us.  (L)Brum is always a tough place to go. (D)Cardiff may be our first win. (W)I can only see six points from our first six games. How about you?

Balckburn (D) opening day and all that.

SheffW (H) 1ST game at CR expect us to win.

Bristol C (H) If we don''t, we won''t make playoffs!

Scum (A) easy 3 points

Brum (D) tough game, but could if have momentum win it.

Cardiff (H)

14 points, am i an optimist, will settle for 12 but expect to get the 14 !!

I think we''ll get 18 but I''m hoping for more...

[GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,735]

The only game I fear this this season Newcastle at ST James'' Park.......I expect us to go into every other game with the mindset that we should be able to win.

If we''re worrying about the likes of Bristol City and Sheff Weds at home, we''re struggling!

I expect 4 wins , a draw and possibly one loss from that lot...

Bit of a defeatist OP that.

Lapps tends to be a right sarcastic sausage so i expect he''s p*ssing about. I reckon;

Blackburn (a) D

Sheff Wed (h) D

Bristol C (h) W

Scum (a) W

Brum (a) L (a typical let down after beating Scum)

Cardiff (h) W

You''ll get some more i am sure Lapps. [;)]

[Diane 500]

Draw at Blackburn and then 5 wins for me so 16 pts

[Move Klose 303]

What''s point in guessing. Alot of business to be done between now and then. Some of them might get off to be absolute flyers or stinkers.

Unusually negative from the OP. If you don''t think we can get three points from the likes of Blackburn and Birmingham then you can''t be too big on our chances of going up?

I''d be aiming for a minimum of 10 points but hopefully more. None of those 6 are what is consider favourites for promotion (Sheffield Wednesday being the closest) and they are the kind of teams we need to be taking points off if we want top 2.

First six games ? look at the next games Wigan (H) Notts Forest (A) Burton (H) SOo from our first 9 games I''d say about 20 plus points

[Number 9 0]

The top teams will average more than two points per game, so six games = 12 points minimum.

Lapps is surely being a tad ''naughty'' but it is an interesting question - there''s a good mix of fixtures in those 6 games. Hopefully we can hit the ground running, something like 12pts would probably do me.

[If wed only kept Howie.. 3]

i checked with Alan Partridge, and he said that the first game would be postponed due to a bent pitch and the second game couldn''t be stopped - and will never have a result..

ps. i always liked the team name "Chunky Norwich"

[TIL 1010 4,718]

Reading this thread it looks like all we have to do is turn up and promotion should be in the bag by New Years day.

[Duncan Edwards 2,218]

I can''t see where the first point is coming from.

Well, after 6 games we were on 11 points, not a bad start, seeing that at the start of the season they seemed to be hard matches.
