Did this over breakfast this morning. news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/predictor/default.stmBeing as fair and level headed as possible, I got: 1. ManU, 2. Liverpool 3. Villa 4. Chelsea 5. Arsenal at the bottom 18. Portsmouth 19. West Ham 20. West Brom I made sure I was really hard on Stoke, to balance out any bias I may have. We came 7th!!! |

Stoke in the Premiership is still the stuff that dreams are made of for me - don't wake me up until I have had complete value out of this dream, even if it is delusional

Let's just deal in facts. Manpoo will win the league, unfortunately. Blackburn will stay up - just. Dull will go down with Brazil and Pompey. Stoke will finish 14th.  |

Ive been fairly realistic but assumed that we now have to start using these expensive assets to carve out results that we havent nanaged so far. In doing this it is clear to me that our home games are relatively more easy so I am looking for us to start taking chances and putting teams away.
Pool 87
Chelsea 86
Shit 86
Villa 84
Arse 72
Everton 61
Wigan 49
Man City 47
Dull 47
Bolton 44
Fulham 42
Stoke 42
Newcastle 41
WHU 39
WBA 38
Spurs 37
Pompey 36
Boro 27
Blackburn 27
The problem with doing something like this is you tend to go with current form wheras with Stoke I have predicted an improvement, but we do have the new signings.
Maybe I have been harsh on Blackburn and surely Sam wont get relegated will he?
Pompey and Boro wouldnt surprise me though.
At the Top it could be any of them on this basis. Would be nice if Villa could do it. I may have overinflated their results a bit.
I suppose from this we do have some margin for error but it looks good and I would be well happy with that finish. At the same time it has to be said you could still finish 12th or get relegated more or less at the death.
Even if Ive called some games wrong is clear that there is more than likely going to be a big scrap at the bottom with some well established teams shitting themselves so as long as w get cracking a bit it should turn out OK
;D

I'll settle for treading water and go for 15th-17th, thats not to say i don't think we could finish higher because we can, especially with what I've seen us play against this season.

does anyone realistically see us to *heaven forbid* go down? There is always that possibility, but with the players we have and from what we've seen of other teams around us this season, then we should have nothing to worry about, wouldn't you agree!! |

I thought i'd been honest but I think I got it wrong!
We got tenth but were easily tenth so maybe we won three gamea which we shouldn't have!
West Brom, Pompey and Boro went Down and Villa were fourth ahead of Arsenal!
