[Albion] We’ve only gone and finished....

[CaptainDaveUK]

With currently better odds to finish top 6 than to be relegated, where do you think we’ll finish this season? Personally I’d be delighted with 10th, but I’m just starting to dare to dream.

 

[highflyer]

If I had to put money on, it would be 12th - 14th which would represent very good progress. No being in a relegation battle in the final few games would be progress!
Top ten would be huge.

I'll state with a great deal of confidence that it won't be top six (although obviously I'll be very very happy to be proved wrong)

 

[Bozza]

I've added a couple of options so that those who don't think we'll finish in the top 10 can still vote!

 

[B-right-on]

10th.

A season of mid table obscurity please.

 

[CaptainDaveUK]

Thanks Bozza, I only just realised I’d only gone up to 10th, lol. My Albion mojo must be pretty high.

 

[A1X]

It's usually quite tight between about 9th and 14th in my experience, I suspect we'll be in that battle somewhere

 

[Tom Bombadil]

I reckon we'll run ou of steam and finish about 12th. I am notoriously bad at predictions.

 

[CaptainDaveUK]

I was joking around with the Scouse Seagulls last night, trying to work out the odds of winning our next game and us going top of the league! Can you even imagine the scenes?

 

[CaptainDaveUK]

Also for what it’s worth we play City and Liverpool either side of Champions League matches, so we’re playing them at a good time. It will be very interesting to see where we are after 10 games, no doubt it will be down hill all the way after that, but you never know!

 

[jakarta]

Always said 12th-14th would be likely, maybe Top 10 now possible?

 

[Weststander]

Somewhere 11th to 13th.

Assuming luck with few injuries to key players.

 

[zefarelly]

11-14th would be progress. top ten would be amazeballs but I doubt it'll happen.

Chelsea and City Draw, Liverpool to either draw or lose to Brentford, Villa to beat United and us to beat Palace.
Not impossible.

 

[Badger]

I reckon we'll finish 11th

 

[GT49er]

I don't expect us to be relegated. There - I've said it, and that is my final word on the subject!

 

[dazzer6666]

Would happily settle for 10th and not even a squeak of a relegation threat all season, it’d represent great progress. However, if we’ve got 24 points after 10 games I’ll be adjusting my expectations ����

 

[Pavilionaire]

If we break even from here on in with 11 wins, 11 draws and 11 defeats we will be on 56 points. That will probably get you 10th place, assuming Leeds take at least a 4 point dip from last season. I think that's what we're looking at here.

 

[The_Viper]

Dunno, my eyes are looking at 38 points. My brain is telling me only 26 more to safety. I'll think about the rest once we get there.

 

[Easy 10]

I would be absolutely delighted with 12th, as that will then mean we have all just witnessed officially the greatest BHA team in the entire history of the club.

My thoughts on this is that a stronger top 4 will hoover up a larger percentage of points than they did last year meaning that points targets should be revised a little down (if you are into points targets)

The totals gained at the bottom, I think will be similar to last season
