Also loving Barnsley away on my birthday.

Can we fast forward to August 6th please? After the Euro 2016 final, of course.

Get back from overseas on the 5th, at least my kids are going to be so mega excited when we come home, instead of the usual groans.

TWENTY POINTS IS THE TARGET

But we must not lose against Brighton, Aston Villa,or Newcastle

Rampage's Forecast -

After SIX games - 11 points

After TEN games - 21 Points

 

After 6 games, 11 points is well within reach, all 3 away games winnable, playing strong teams first could build momentum, see Kernow's thoughts

If the first six were reversed so we play our home games away & our away games at home then we'd probably face a tougher start. Having the home advantage against three probable contenders early on is a good thing, and our away fixtures offer us a good chance to start some good away form from the beginning.

Totally agree. Pretty good fixture list to hit the ground running for Pearson.

Nearly all the big teams at home before turn of the year. Going to be a long hard second half of the season!!!!!!

By the time we play them, if we are in a strong position, they will fear us equally as much, some of them may already be slipping away. Momentum could be everything next year, expecting us to be far more consistent.

Even Sky have started believing the Dirties propaganda!

I'm pretty sure whoever writes the articles for the website won't have much choice in what games get televised anyway, no worries. Probably a Leeds fan anyway lol.

Wow we better be top by Christmas with a decent gap or we can kiss goodbye to automatic promotion.

Insane that we have Newcastle, Norwich, Aston Villa, Brighton, Forest, Sheff Wed, Ipswich and Brentford all away in the second half of the campaign. You'd expect all top half sides plus the EM derby.

Another startling prediction towards something that is completely impossible to predict I see...
