Impossible to predict so many games. Our immediate aim should be beating Swansea and Newcastle at home and getting ourselves to the cup final. That would give us a very good base to kick on with for the rest of the season.

Looks like Swansea are getting a new manager in though, we all know what that means!

Hasn't worked for Villa.

It'll be P16 W3 L2 D 11, finish on 49 points and commence massive fume. No cups either though I'd love to be wrong.

I'm going to write this down and vault you in May. If not before.

I'd be happy to be vaulted if we could turn some of those Ds into Ws.

I think we will get 27 points out of the last 16 games, added to the 29 points we already have giving us a total of 56 points. I think this would probably see us finish in the top half but not in the European places. Last Season Swansea finished on 56 points and they were 8th.

I think our only chance of Europe is through the League and FA Cup's

yeah I know, I added the deffo nailed on bit myself as that's how it came across. but you knew that, so just to keep you happy I'll stick with what you actually said ( spoil sport )

If we take out the deffo nailed on bit, that might infer you can find no fault with the rest and thus agree

anyway

Boxing day you said I'm sticking with 60+pts.... now it might be lower...you blinked mate, doubt has, quite rightly, set in.

16 games to get to 57pts that's an average of 1.75pts per game and over the season we've averaged 1,3-ish

or put it another way
at 1.32pts per game we have now, we're playing 'like' a 50-51 points total team
and all of a sudden were going to average 1.75pts per game and start...as of now, playing 'like' a 66pts total team

nothing would please me more, because that would mean he'd learned lessons and was consistently applying them, not maybe doing it properly just to get through the city game away, but doing it like he meant it ...and that was all I and many others wanted
and to beat the rs in the final and to go on a run in the FA cup, I'd be happy with that too

in all likelihood it ain't going to happen, not the rs bit that's GOT to happen

as with all things time will tell

I dont see any shifting ground between what I formerly stated and now state. I still have an expectancy for us to get 60+ total - that's what I expect us to get in this season for it to be good with this cup run. Right now we're on 28 points and I see us still getting there if we get to the better end of the spectrum of points I think we're likely to get from the remaining 16 fixtures. We might not reach the 32 points on the outer positive side of the spectrum to make it to 60 - if not then my expectations wont have been met.

But all that ^^^ is different to me stating we will get that 60 point total. There was never ever a 'will get; them about it.

you blinked, dance around the semantics of it all however much you like...If it blinks like a duck etc.
