Manderic's pants Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere, but in the Game this morning, the Times produced its predictions for the Championship this season. Here's our bit: Leicester City Nigel Pearson has a reputation as an excellent coach and the fact that he has outlasted his four predecessors at the Walkers Stadium is testament to the manner in which he imposed his personality on Milan Mandaric’s club this past year. Last season’s promotion triumph was spearheaded by the goals of Matty Fryatt, who led the way with 32, and Steve Howard, who contributed 15, though the former has missed much of the pre-season campaign after a hernia operation. Matt Oakley, even at 32 this month, is an adept performer, and Pearson is looking for the additional fire power that Kevin Phillips or Leroy Lita could offer. Could be a surprise package. Prediction: 6 http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/foo...icle6736633.ece It predicted we'd win last year...
Finchy Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Forest 5th. Maybe a City v Forest play off final on the cards
smudge_lcfc69 Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Forest 5th. Maybe a City v Forest play off final on the cards don't tease me!
Mike the Metal Ed Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Forest 5th. Maybe a City v Forest play off final on the cards Problem is, they have West Brom in 3rd... unless Big Steve wants to give an encore performance.
LCFC-ARAB Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Forest 5th. Maybe a City v Forest play off final on the cards i would jizz in my pants
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Genorous of them. Would love to get Forest in the playoffs. That would be awesome.
ousefox Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Yeah this is very genorous. Qpr 18th and Newcastle 20th!!
Dr The Singh Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Aload of tripe, but let's hope the guys right, a top 6 finish would be amazing!!
Fox92 Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 6th!!! Thats a bit optamistic and generous of them, more confident than what I am <_< I think The Sun put us at an outsider at 25/1
Jon the Hat Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Alwyas liked the Times, never liked 442 mag. Excellent. As you were.
Guest Bilo Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 442 magazine puts us 18th I think they put us 7th in League One this time last year and said Leeds should 'blow the division apart'. Their predictions aren't the best to be honest.
Joe. Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 I think they put us 7th in League One this time last year and said Leeds should 'blow the division apart'. Their predictions aren't the best to be honest. Nah, they had us to finish 2nd behind Leeds.
Guest Bilo Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Nah, they had us to finish 2nd behind Leeds. Having looked at last year's 442 pullout, you're right. Setanta had us at 7th. Still, I think we'll finish a damn sight higher than 18th.
StanSP Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Having looked at last year's 442 pullout, you're right. Setanta had us at 7th. Still, I think we'll finish a damn sight higher than 18th. Cvnts.
Uncle Phil Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 The Telegraph, I think it was anyway, said we'll finish in the playoffs as well.
Guest ttfn Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Having looked at last year's 442 pullout, you're right. Setanta had us at 7th. Still, I think we'll finish a damn sight higher than 18th. Setanta had us 3rd! For what it's worth, the Sunday Times had us to 'make the playoffs'
Jfox Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 I'd love this to happen but their predictions are bonkers
Guest Bilo Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 Setanta had us 3rd!For what it's worth, the Sunday Times had us to 'make the playoffs' Am I on something? I definitely looked at something from someone last year that had us to finish 7th. Buggered if I know who it was though. I'm off to take my medication.
Ultra Posted 3 August 2009 Posted 3 August 2009 The Telegraph, I think it was anyway, said we'll finish in the playoffs as well. No, they've got us down for mid-table.
