B4ev6is Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 I meant us two fighting it out but we come out on top. And they settle for play offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisse Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 You can't base a lot on preseason. Every team will change before this transfer window is closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I'd rather be winning games than losing them.. Especially against lower league opposition.. But as someone mentioned, the season starts 3rd August.. These games, whilst we should be trying to win, won't have an impact come August.. We're also not the only side to be having a good preseason.. Quite a few of the other NPC games are undefeated and some are playing against tougher opposition..

PrivateDerby Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 We are pretty much unstoppable at Pride Park. There was obviously a problem playing away last season, whether it was nerves, lack of confidence or Cloughie.... It was ****! I am extremely confident that we will pick up just as many points on tour this season. I don't know why, I just feel that Nigel must have sorted it out ready for this season, he better have anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rams-R-us Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Wishful thinking there private. but you have a point. The only thing potentially stopping us from reaching the play offs is/was our away form. If that improves and our home forms continues off from last season we could be celebrating come may!?

I don't know why, I just feel that Nigel must have sorted it out ready for this season, he better have anyway I wouldn't call winning only 52% of our home games as 'unstoppble' It was a solid home form.. In fact the 5th best, but some of the others were quite low points wise.. We collected 43 points from 23 home games, that's not even the standard 2 points per game which you usually associate with a top home form..

Mafiabob Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 We have to pick up 25/30 points at least next season for us to have a chance. That's with home form being bang on the money. I just want us to keep a decent run of form going for 10/11 games instead of winning 2/3 in a row then losing next 2/3, consistency is the key (duh!) Whatever we say about the league being intresting and tight, it's a poor league and its completely there for the taking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever we say about the league being intresting and tight, it's a poor league and its completely there for the taking. I must have asked this question 5 or 6 times, and nobody has been able to give me any sort of an answer beyond "because I say so". Why is it a poor league?

Mafiabob Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I tend to compare it to other standards across Europe, Spanish German French Italian leagues, better standard of football, albeit not as exciting to watch as in this country, also think there's nothing much between bottom 8 of premier league, all of championship and top 8/10 of league 1, hope that kind of answers the question, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Well, we had an Italian team in the championship last season - and they didn't get promoted. In fact, we beat them 5-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the top half of the championship would be quite competitive in that league. Perhaps promotion spots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
