    That's an absolutely hideous run of fixtures.

    I think I'll be content if we're within touching distance of the top 6 after that lot but my heads telling me we'll be 11th or 12th. Our home form is unrelentingly cack (even when we play well like tonight) and those away games look brutal.

    Somewhere around 12th.

    We need two strikers ASAP when January starts. We can't afford to be waiting until the end of the month, as by then it could be too late.

    I genuinely don't believe that we should be scared of anyone in this division but we're so unpredictable and I've got no idea how these games will pan out.

    My opinion is we have squad capable of being comfortably top 6. Unfortunately we have a piss poor manager who is out of his depth and disappearing further into the dugout with every game.

    Absolutely no idea. Anywhere between 4th an 14th. So going for 10th but with little confidence

    That's my take too. I wouldn't back us with your money but it's entertaining.

    We’ve played more games than several teams just behind us so we are likely in a false position as it stands.

    1 point at home from 6 in a week against lower or mid table sides isn’t likely to get you promoted.

    I do think it’s a very open league though. If it were a league full of quality we wouldnt be 6th currently.

    You're a good stats man and I respect you for it. If we click we can go places.

    I was all for "Clarke out" and wotnot but after watching the fluidity of our football first half especially. Think he's the man to take us forward.

    Not necessarily up but forward as a club. We need to evolve. However, success has stern foundations.

    I'll wait and see.

    Agree, I’m just scared of ourselves as you say our unpredictability at home.
