Harpenden Fox Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 There's a wave of nervous optimism sweeping us all at the moment. Others rightly point to the fact that it's only the next game that matters, but what do we think would be a decent points total from preston (a), Plymouth (a) and Saints (h). There's then another a break to pause for breath. My ambition for the moment is to see us tucked in about tenth, so I'm hoping for Preston - draw Plymouth - draw Saints - win so 5 points out of 9. For me that's par for the next week. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxes_Wizard_Striker Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 I think we should beat plymouth, we are certainlly capable of beating Preston as well Saints? a intersting game as it is first game of season where we play " fall from grace" teams meaning relegated teams from Premiership like Norwich,Palace and Saints I don't how we will react playing them so it is intersting one but I think draw,win,draw sequence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SystonFox Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 after the saints game i will take 4 or 5 points but i'd like 6. maximum 7. i think it will be Preston - Win Plymouth - Draw Saints - Draw the worst i see it going is Preston - Win Plymouth - Draw Saints - Draw the best i see it going is Preston - Win Plymouth - Win Saints - Draw i cant see us losing any of the games, but i cant see us beating Southampton at home. a draw is likely for that game. i think we will beat preston but probably come out with a draw at plymouth.

TAFKA Castroneves Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 Preston - Draw Plymouth - Win Southampton - Win As long as we don't loose any of these I'll be reasonably happy, but we need at least one or two wins from these and we should get them.

Thracian Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 Never quite see the point in all this crystal ball gazing. Loads of things, such as a run of injuries, can happen between one game and the next and why on earth we "should" beat so-and-so but not someone else is never properly explained. Last pre-season fans, and even journalists who should have known better, were saying we "should" be one of the teams to gain automatic promotion and look what nonsense that proved to be - and predictably so. Concentrate on the next game is my philosophy. Let's get it right for Preston before we worry about what's next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree to a point, but we all tend to swing from mass euphoria following a win to the edge of suicide when we lose. This bit of fun was to try and set a benchmark for the week ahead so we can look back on the week's endeavours with some context, rather than simply the most recent 90 minutes. D'ya take my point?

Ric Flair Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 Although Smudger is back tomorrow I am still not overly confident going in to each game City play and I think that's the best way at the minute. We are still very inconsistent and although we've won 3 of the last 4 games, we could easily lose at Preston, not win at Plymouth and be back to slating Levein come the Southampton home game. We then have a 2 week break, which isn't ideal if we haven't got some decent results in the previous games. It's crucial we put abit of a run together and play to the best of our ability wisely, Levein must get the players focused for tomorrow aswell as tuesday. We'll be doing alot of travelling in the next 5 days and Levein must keep their mind on the job. All the club should be focusing on is tomorrow and slowly but surely buildinh and improving on things.

frenchy_lcfc Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 I think the Next three games will be Preston: - Win Plymouth:- Draw Saints: - Win Eventhough we got loads of confidence from our last two wins. I don't want to speak about it much or else it may get Jinxed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure I do but I remember something similar just before the QPR/Derby/Burnley games - "ones we ought to win etc" and look what happened. I'm with Ric Flair on this - stay a bit on the pessimistic side, concentrate on the game ahead, and be glad if it all goes better tahn you imagined. Who could have sensibly predicted Leicester's last half-dozen results?. And Preston certainly won't be easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir JJ Wilcox Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 If southampton are as bad as everyone in this forum says 9 points. But as the saints are the draw specialists i'd say 7 points but thats seven points nearer the play offs cummon city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gist Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 It depends whether we have turned this season round and are going to be concistant i think a win at preston and a win at plymouth and a draw with southampton .... but ill just wait and see what happens you cant predict games in this league anyone can beat anyone on there day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationwider Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 Par for City would be 2 draws and a defeat! I'd say 2 wins would be good news over the next 3 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIRFOOT Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 preston = lose, havnt won at home all season, meaning they will beat us. plymouth = lose, everyone thinks we will win, meaning we probably lose saints = draw, we expect to lose, so we will scrape an exciting 0-0 draw may sound pesimistic, but it is probably what will happen.

filbertway Posted 28 October 2005 Share Posted 28 October 2005 I dont like all this optimism, too much expectation i think I would love 5 points from the next 3 games, if we get less than 3 points i will be dissapointed but anymore than 3 and i will be satisfied.
