Grey Fox Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 I'll go for 15, but if we get more than that, auto is well and truly back on! Less than 12 would be poor IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5waller5 Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 Huddersfield W Bristol City D Boro L Wolves W Peterborough L Blackburn W Charlton W Which gives 13 points ..... I'd be relatively happy with that haul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baronfox Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 Was feeling really depressed after the Cardiff game but must admit that the last 2 games have given me some renewed faith in Pearson. 2 very good results away from home. Lets kick on, starting tomoro! C'mon leicester! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry - LCFC Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 That is the bright side, following my heart - head said 8 points, we struggle to win more than one in three and we just nicked one so draw tomorrow I reckon -like last time, would love to be wrong (but i wasn't) Wow, I know people might lower their expectations but 8 points from the next 7 isn't that far from relegation form! Indeed, we have had a poor run of results but those were against tough teams on the whole. Most people would judge the following games we have as somewhat easier than our recent run. I'll be astonished if we get 8 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain... Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 I look at each of those games and think, we can win that, we can win that, we can win that... I'm not saying we will, but taking each game on its own merit if we turn up and play close to our best we will win them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danizen Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 Hope so but this is Niges third go on the transfers since his return, why will the guys he signs now be any better than the last lot? Woods is a one in four striker at this level so he is going to need to be at his very best to make an impact, although he has had a good run at Millwall so let's hope. Bet Waggy and Vardy are over the moon at his signing Woods is a one in for striker? Maybe but he's actively improving that record. It's one in two this season. Plus Woods cost us the same as Michu cost Swansea.............. Michu's team were in dire straits and had to accept peanuts for a player who's worth about 8 times that. Woods' price tag is justified, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulsherwood1 Posted 1 January 2013 Share Posted 1 January 2013 Two problems with this..... Firstly, on paper they all ( with possibly the exception of Boro - even tho they are not great away ) look easy. However, this is the Championship. The league where Posh win at Cardiff, where Ipswich can beat Millwall 3-0, where Bristol C can win 3-1 at Boro...... the old cliche is right, there are no easy games.. Secondly, and perhaps more importantly, I have been following City for nigh on 30 years now, and in that time I have seen us lose countless games we should have won.... It`s always the easy fixtures that screw us up, so I can see where ColCityfan is coming from!! Especially in recent seasons, this seems to be where we really struggle to break down or finish off the weaker teams. Hope I`m wrong!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxfanazer Posted 1 January 2013 Share Posted 1 January 2013 16 points from those would be very nice. Peterborough away is a dodgy 1, they're so unpredictable. As are we Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjslcfc Posted 1 January 2013 Share Posted 1 January 2013 Obviously we COULD win every single one of those games, IF we play to the level we know we can. As we all know and have experienced supporting Leicester, nothing is a certainty. The championship is a very competitive league where literally everyone can beat each other (e.g Peterborough at Cardiff, Barnsley at Millwall etc..). CONSISTENCY is the key, something we have lacked over the past few years. If the team goes into matches with complacency and the idea that simply turning up means we will win, then we will get turned over by even the most average of sides. However, I don't think Nigel will let that happen. Yes, we have a "nice" run of games. But it is also a run of games we know could also turn out to be a banana skin - teams such as Bristol City away and Peterborough away, where we have a poor recent record, and former premier league teams such as Blackburn and Wolves who will have something to prove. Let's take each game as it comes and go on the rollercoaster ride that is supporting Leicester City. Hopefully, that ends up in promotion who knows. A good start to the year will be very important and, as we have done all season with our squad and performances, we have a great chance of going on a run of wins. But don't take it as a certainty that some games are a definite 3 points. Happy new year, and let's hope it's a good start with a solid performance and win today!

Ric Flair Posted 1 January 2013 Share Posted 1 January 2013 15-16 points from that would maintain our play-off place but we need 18+ to start putting pressure on the top 2 as only Middlesborough are above us out of that lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueforever Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 Well one down and 6 more to go. 14 points is my best guess. Huddersfield W (in the bag) Bristol City W Boro D (toughest game of the lot would be happy with a draw but if we wont to push for top 2 we need win this) Wolves W Peterborough L (They're on a decent run I think we'll slip up) Blackburn D Charlton W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seenitall Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 Pretty sure this is wrong; Wood cost us about 1 million, and Michu cost Swansea 2.2mil. Wood will complete his move from West Brom, worth initially £1.25million rising to £2m, when the transfer window opens tomorrow. But even a more realistic bid of around £10m would represent a fine piece of business for a player who cost £2m just six months ago.(Michu) Blimey, who needs facts eh?
