Yor are even more of a pessimist than I am!
I have fretted about "R" since the season began. Recon another 2 points and we can relax and sit to watch who goes through the trapdoor. Millwall and Derby please

My predictions = 18 points
Hull - Home - Win
Cardiff - Home - Draw
Fulham - Away - Lose
Preston - Home - Draw
Birmingham - Away - Win
West Brom - Away - Lose
Sheff Wed - Home - Win
QPR - Away - Draw
Millwall - Home - Win

Well done SW again for following through with this thread. One correction on your top post is that we are actually 4 points ahead of last year at the same time. Nic pointed this out on another thread last evening - and our GD is better by 4.
That's correct WK we are indeed 4 pts better off, even better than I thought
Will start another thread after 30 games to keep it going.

Bookies, on the other hand, don’t deal in emotions like optimism and pessimism - just hard cold analysis.
This morning Paddy Power had us 1/12 to be promoted. We are now 1/16.

I had checked the map only recently and hadn’t seen anyone listed for anywhere in Meath (as I thought) but now I do Should have known you’d have been all over it!
They tend to get absorbed within the Dublin setup - a common problem for many of the Leinster crowd

Last season we got 18 points from games 21-30, so hopefully at least 18 this season. I would put us winning the Cardiff and Preston games too to give us 22 points from the games and on 65 points after 30 games. If we are there then I will be very happy.

We keep grinding out wins & are definitely a better side than last year but...what a Xmas calendar we have!!
I'm only looking at the next 6 games but 4 of those are against teams in the top 8.
Then, of course, we have Arsenal away which will probably end up being a formality.
