CARDIFF CITY Need 36 more points??

Thu Jan 10, 2013 4:11 pm

11/12 season
1. Reading 89 points
2. Southampton 88 points

10/11 season
1. QPR 88 points
2.Norwich 84 points

09/10 season
1. Newcastle 102 points
2. West Brom 91 points

08/09 season
1. Wolves 90 points
2. Birmingham 83 points

08/09 to 11/12 season - Average points for for 1st place = 92 points and runner up = 86 points

Going by the average of the last four seasons, we are currently on 56 points meaning we need at least 36 points to top the league! As long as our rivals lose at least few games don't win more than 13 games out of 20 we should be OK.

Each season is different so going by previous form means nothing to be honest.

Looking at the fixtures and our form don't drop, we could have 86 points by the Charlton game.
Not going to happen, but wishful thinking.

Not taking into account any transfers i think we'll get 40 pts and win the championship v Charlron at home!
Am I being to optimistic? That's with 4 more losses and 4 draws (12 wins!)

I think we will guarantee play offs against barnsley home and gain promotion against forest home . The final game of season will decide the champions . Us and hull both promoted nd a huge party up there for both clubs :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

All City need to do is only look as far ahead as the next game! If we get ahead of ourselves, thats when the problems occur. :ayatollah:

I also found myself with 33 points although I was airing on the side of caution.

I think 33 on the low side and 40 on the high side.

Looking good though :)
