9/14: Vs Birmingham City
9/21: @ Wigan
9/28: vs Leeds
Only three matches. Is a win and draw among them a success?

I think 4 is ok, 6 is a succes, 7 is amazing!7

Five is successful. We should never be happy with a loss. Let’s keep the unbeaten run going as long as we can.14
-
Draws against brum and Leeds and beat Wigan - that would be an unreal points return.
Our aim of the season is to stay up so even 3 points against Wigan is acceptable.3 -
Rewind 6 weeks.... 4 points is successful. We are just getting greedy saying it minimum. This is all part of the added pain when that poor run of form comes.4

Just need to beat our relegation rivals Wigan for it to be a successful September1
-
I went for 6 points

Staying up is successful. Points in one month is irrelevant.2
-
Yes1
-
4 points is an ok September - 5,6 points or more is a successful one IMO. I am genuinely expecting us to blow Birmingham away on Saturday and really hoping we don't get a reality check.1

Would 3 draws be better then WDL.....obviously 4 points is better then 3, but to remain unbeaten after nine games would be pretty amazing.....either would be OK in my book 5+ would be outstanding.2

The more points you get the better. When you get a defeat, which you will, it is about how you react to it.2

I'd be a little disappointed if we dont get four points from Birmingham and Wigan
The former have had a good start but if we drop away then I expect Birmingham to do so as well so the results of these two games could mean so much come the end of the season
We have had a start to the season that has defied all expectations though so wont be surprised if we flattered to deceive in September - Just depends if the International Breaks are going to hinder our form this season or help it by giving the players a rest... As imagine at the moment, most just want to be out on the pitch playing2 -
Beat Birmingham and Wigan and draw against Leeds. Why not?3

Of course a WDL is better than 3 draws.
No brainer.1 -
4 is a failure .
We are on for a 9 pt month

This mob of players don't know how to lose. Minimum 5 points, maybe 7, maybe even 9.....

I’d take 2 points the rub of the green turns and we’ll end up with 1 or 00

The next three matches will mark the end of the first 9 game block as used by Mr L Bowyer.
Last season he aimed for 18 points from each block so with 14 points so far another 4 would have us bang on target.
But after such a good start we'd all like more, that's how success increases expectations.
Personally, I think unbeaten runs can become counter-productive as sides aim to protect the run rather than win the game. See Huddersfield in 2011/12 and their run which contained lots of draws and defeats in play-offs and they still couldn't get near Powell's side.
I think Bowyer is different as his mentality is "Just win games" (remember that reductive statement @JamesSeed : - ) ) so I think he'll try to win them all.6 -

Seven points. In Bowyer we trust.1
-
9 points, we will win all three games0
-
4 points would be a par return, rather than a successful one.0
-
As long as we get a win from Brum and something at Wigan it will be a good month. Leeds will be tough with a squad full of talent and promotion favourites, we shouldn't get too carried away.0
-
4 points from our next two would set up the Leeds game nicely.0

I believe the three teams we are playing should be thinking "Can we get a point from this game?" not us4

3 games 4 points is good enough to avoid relegation so yes 4 points in September would be good.2

On the lovesport fan’s show, I said 7pts, but I’d take 6. The only thing is how we react if we do get beat. I think we’ll be okay, based on the mentality Bowyer has installed, but you never know1
