Would you settle for 89 pts

[northstandsteve]

Huddersfield to finish on 86, this was my prediction 2 months ago, i am not changing now. Have us on 91

 

[BensGrandad]

I think that we will win our remaining 4 home games and 1 away giving us 92 points.

 

[LVGull]

Huddersfield have more than enough in them to keep up the pressure

No chance. In a few weeks we will be 9 pts clear. Games are running out and they will concede.

At this point we need to win 7 games to ensure we are up.

Will not need that many and I dont expect us to get them.

At this point in time we need to win 7 anything else and we could be missing out. As every game passes we will know more accurately.

Absolutely. 98 points for now. Revise that after each game rather than guess.

Exactly. Huddersfield will finish on 98 unless their future results suggest otherwise.

Last season, we won 7 and drew 3 of the final 10 games. That was not enough.

We've already dropped 3 points in the last 10 this season. We must aim to win every match left. We might even care about winning the Championship at some point?

Our away form is a big concern and I don't see us winning away again this season...wolves and QPR are in form,villa and Norwich are also ridiculously tough games and think we'll get 2 draws and 2 defeats.The home form is key to promotion as expected and any slip ups are costly just like the other two.

So 91 points max for us

 

[sparkie]

No.

89 points means getting knocked out in the playoff semi-finals again.

Right now I'd settle for 98.

I've mellowed a little and as of now will settle for 95 points.

I think 89 points would suffice now, as it's effectively 90 with our superior goal difference. Huddersfield would need 19pts from their remaining 8 games, so would require W6 D1 L1 or W5 D4 L0, and I'm really not sure they are up to this(now) given their last few results. Reading & Leeds would need need to win ALL their remaining 7 fixtures, so I think 89 is the magic number.
Beating Brum on Tuesday pm would calm a lot of nerves for everyone, mine included!

Brilliant forecast! Now, how about the next few weeks, and some tips on the horses for us please?

Sorry no good on the horses. My prediction all season has been us to win the league.

How is this possible?

 

[KLUNK]

You mean calming our nerves? Dunno!
Regarding the initial post, I think 89 will be enough. I think we are virtually there, and will soon be hoping to win the title & not worrying about being caught for top 2...

 

[albionfan37]

89 will be plenty now as I can't see hudds or anyone else going hell for leather after seeing what happened to us last year being physically and mentally knackered for the playoffs none of them will believe they have a hope to catch us now in fact 89 will be more than enough

 

[227 BHA]

A

Looks increasingly likely that 86 will be enough now as Hudds unlikely to get 16 points from their remaining 8 games (as they haven't managed a 2point/game average all season and don't see that changing now)

 

[chaileyjem]

Most bookmakers have now stopped quoting odds on us being top 2 or suspended the market.

 

[warmleyseagull]

So what do we think we need to beat Toon to the trophy? Their form has been iffy, could well have dropped points to Wigan yesterday. I reckon 95 will do it though may need to improve GD with a couple fo chunky wins.
