How Many Points Will We Get In August?

No financial gain to be had here I’m afraid, more the glory of being top dog and smug with your score predictions.

I’m going for....

Sat - 3rd August - Blackburn - Away - 1 point

Sat - 10th August - Stoke City - Home - 3 points

Sat 17th August - Barnsley - Away - 1 Point

Weds 21st August - Notts Forest - Home - 1 Point

Sat 24th August - Brentford - Home - 1 Point

Sat 31sr August - Reading - Away - 3 Points


Total 6 games - 3 Home - 3 Away

I can’t beat ‘Fanny’s Tingle’

So I’m going for a ‘Mendonca’s musings’ with a points total of 10 points.

What do you reckon we are going to get points total wise?

    I think, realistically, we will be looking at Forest for potentially our first point. Maybe we can have a lucky defensive display that will get us another before then. If Bowyer can get some decent loans it should improve though. Scandal that Duchatelet allows us to start so weak though. If we miss out by a few points at the end of the season it will be down to him and nobody else.

    Funny enough looking at those fixtures the away games seem more like for us to get points than the home ones.

    Blackburn A 0
    Stoke H 1
    Barnsley A 1
    Forest H 3
    Brentford H 3
    Reading A 1

    Got to have a decent ish month looking at those fixtures. You won’t get an easier combo of away games in a calendar month and we have to be winning as many home games as we can. We did well at home last year and I think Bow will be hyperfocused on making sure that continues.

    I'm genuinely amazed at some of these predictions.

    Yes, we may sign some now players before the season starts, but they will need to be world class if some of these predictions are to come true.
