yorkiesaint Posted 6 February, 2013 Share Posted 6 February, 2013 It's that time of year. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/predictor/default.stm I had us ending on 45 points. You're an optimist that's for sure. When I did it it came down to a nailbiting last day and we stayed up on 39 points. I hope this is wrong! In this scenario we beat W Ham, QPR, W Brom and Stoke at home, managed a point at Norwich and Sunderland (v optimistic) and at home to Liverpool, lost home games against Man City and Chelsea, and away games at Swansea and Reading, Spurs and newcastle. Newcastle 42 (-13) W. Ham 40 (-16) Norwich 40 (-19) Saints 39 (-13) Wigan 39 (-18) Fulham 38 (-13) Reading 38 (16) Villa 32 (-33) QPR 28 (-24) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Scott Posted 6 February, 2013 Share Posted 6 February, 2013 (edited) Finished up with Saints in 13th! This was my genuine neutral estimating too, im genuinely quite shocked by the outcome. Edited 6 February, 2013 by Saint Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicestersaint Posted 6 February, 2013 Share Posted 6 February, 2013 We will do well to reach 40 points, especially if we keep giving away late goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suhari Posted 6 February, 2013 Share Posted 6 February, 2013 Wigan and Villa cut adrift come the last day on 26 and 24 pts. Us (35), QPR (33) Reading (32) go into the last match with massively squeaky arses. Our better goal difference might be the thing that keeps us up.

SNSUN Posted 6 February, 2013 Share Posted 6 February, 2013 I did it the other day, it's all nonsense as otherwise we'd all win the pools every week, but the experiment was to see how Saints could do if we win our winable games, control the controllables as it were. We finished on 41 points iirc. I do think we'll be in the relegation battle though, we've dropped too many points over the course of the season and may regret not strengthening more in January. I'll take going into the last game with our fate in our own hands. I notice people have started tipping Reading to survive. I still don't see it. McDermott said "we've got lots of quality in this team". I don't see that either. Reading will still go down IMO, but at least for the time being they're showing balls. QPR are, I finally admit, going down too. They're just too far adrift, they need near title winning form for the rest of the season to escape now IMO. Then it's a 3 ways tie between us, Wigan and Villa. Villa have looked shocking this season - it could well be them, prompting our survival and Wigan's great escape.

Dr Who? Posted 6 February, 2013 Share Posted 6 February, 2013 Finished up with Saints in 13th! This was my genuine neutral estimating too, im genuinely quite shocked by the outcome.

aintforever Posted 6 February, 2013 Share Posted 6 February, 2013 I had us staying up easy on 43 points but these predictor things are completely pointless at this stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saints_is_the_south Posted 6 February, 2013 Share Posted 6 February, 2013 41 points and 13th place finish. 9th downwards to be very close together IMO. West Brom and Stoke in poor form, the latter always seems to tail off towards the end. Think Newcastle will climb the table into the top half. Sooner or later I think we are going to become level with Norwich/Fulham/West Ham and then the bottom half will be a bit of a yo yo until the end of the season. Bottom 3 as it currently stands.

anothersaintinsouthsea Posted 7 February, 2013 Share Posted 7 February, 2013 Are we yet at the stage where someone calculates how many points should be good enough based points totals achieved by teams in the last ten years, and then people argue about interpreting it properly?

Lol worst table ever! Pure comedy. As if anyone on 30 points will stay up! You must have based pretty much all your predictions on a "top half beats bottom half" basis, then gave saints a few bonus points to ensure we stayed up.

Charlie Wayman Posted 7 February, 2013 Share Posted 7 February, 2013 So not one person has scored it with us going down. This alone makes the whole thing a mockery.

Black Sea Saint Posted 7 February, 2013 Share Posted 7 February, 2013 too many away games. I'm predicting we finish on 34 points. Can't be bothered to predict the other teams's scores.
