Next 8 games

Tottenham (h)
Leicester (a)
Burnley (h)
Huddersfield (a)
Manchester City (h)
Newcastle (a)
Cardiff (h)
Crystal Palace (h)

As always, this isn't about predicting what we will get. It is saying what is the minimum number of points you would settle for (even if you think we might get more.)

If we took less than 12 points from that I'd be disappointed or worried, depending on the circumstances.

Think the value of looking slightly longer term than the last/next game was shown in the first eight fixtures.

Looking forward to seeing how we get on.

I’d take 11, but I would hope for 14!!! Ever optimistic even at my supporting for more than 60 years, I’ll never learn and don’t want to! ;lol

MrsGrey

These thread titles ;lol

MrsGrey

11-the bare minimum to make me happy.

Cuz1

I think we can get four wins out of those so 12 minimum for me

Expat_Hammer

I think 12 is acceptable and achievable

sweepy23

13 the minimum for me and a league cup win ;wink

Yeoldhammer

9 points I reckon

though we should be targeting 15 - 18

Fortuneseeker

At least ten and that is just from the home games! ;pray plus another five from the away ones is realistic.

secrethammersfan

I am expecting 9, and I would be disappointed with less than 12.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

IronHerb

10 points would do for me.

Brother_Sledge

less than 10 would be very disappointing ;pray

Lukerz

EXETERHAMMER

Yep. Less than 12 would be a disappointment.

alderz

jay_in_cpt

13 for me..

SuzanneClaret

Anything less than 12 and I'll get a bit twitchy.

heathrowhammer

Hamstew

Pearces_Left_Foot

12 and hopefully move us nicely into upper mid table

Fortuneseeker

Just so people can see where the confidence/madness stems from!

Tottenham (h) D
Leicester (a) D
Burnley (h) W
Huddersfield (a) W
Manchester City (h) L
Newcastle (a) D
Cardiff (h) W
Crystal Palace (h) W

I thank you. ;biggrin

MrsGrey

Nurse! Quick!

Hammerex

Can't see them getting more than 12.

Fortuneseeker

Looking at the lack of optimism on here I reckon I need to increase my medication. ;lol

Lukerz

We took 8 points from the corresponding 8 fixtures last season, substituting Cardiff for Stoke.

SuzanneClaret

;puzzled

thornburyiron

Need to improve on that because 15 points from 16 games isn't very good although a point per game would generally see you safe

ASLEFshrugged

We should get at lest a draw against Huddersfield, Newcastle, Cardiff and Palace.

Burnley are a lot better since they got knocked out of Europe, Leicester are unpredictable, a draw against Spurs would be good and losing by two goals or less to City would be acceptable.
