Here is the place to talk about all things city and football!

Was dissappointed with myself when I clicked update at the end of the process to find Spurs and Liverpool above City :-(
I hate Wolves so much I decided to give them as least points as possible whilst been sensible with the rest.

19. Boro 27 32
20. West Brom 25 32
So obviously the table wont look like that - too many contingencies e.g. GD at the bottom; Villa recovering a bit; Everton being a juggernaut; Fulham, Stoke and Us retaining home form; Spuds not being gash after all etc.
Only one thing felt ominously fucking certain - the twats.
What actually happened is in Yellow.
All we are saying is give Doug a pass.

It was MRM who started the topic!
And I'm NOT going to do this for good ten games yet. I'm PAP at predicting results.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

I think the missing game is due to us still not having a home date with Everton settled.

Aren't you pessimistic bugger!!!
So far we've average 1.86 points per game. If we'd continue at that rate, and I don't see why we wouldn't, we'd get about 30 points from remaining games putting us to 71 points. Which, looking at the trend in past ten years, should be good for 3rd to 5th. Which I'd be very happy about.

Champions league...I must admit I got very bored half way through that and put in some very suspect results. I think wolves beat villa 4-1?!

More importantly, our home form has been pretty good (ignoring Burnley, Fulham, Hull, 2nd half against Wolves...) and we still have to play the 3 real competitors for 4th - Villa, Liverpool and Spurs, at home. 9 points from those 3 and we'd be a lot closer.
