We've done the hand wringing and the confessions.
New page, whatever you've posted before - where are we going to finish?
I'll go for the (boring) where we are now - 10th.
Over to you...…. |  | | |  |

Mostly injury free (unlikely) then 8th, amazing.
With injuries, 14th. |  |

On the 'run'
Many were asking when we did it before.
We DID win 7 on the bounce under Ollie - 1st season back in Champs - but don't know if we had 3 clean sheets in a row in that run - anyone? |
No, we only managed two clean sheets in succession, the last two games of the run we won 1-0 away at Stoke and home to West Ham. [Post edited 30 Oct 2018 21:36]

Think we will finish about 12th - can see Stoke recalling Cameron in Jan if he continues to play well and Burnley might recall Wells if he scores a few more.
Will also depend whether anyone comes calling for Freeman in Jan (or anyone else for that matter). A decent offer could see anyone leave |  |

A top half finish would have to be considered a very successful season for Steve and the team. At the moment, I think we'll finish between 7th and 12th. |  |

the aim of avoiding the bottom 3 is still very much the target but i would now say anything from 9th to 18th
thats a major improvement from the 21st to 18th target i was hoping for at the start after west brom i thought that was us done and dusted [Post edited 31 Oct 2018 3:07]

I’d be really pleased with a top half finish. Can’t believe we’ll continue on our current run as we may struggle if either of our centre backs or Bidwell gets injured and we’re also pretty reliant on Ezra and Freeman to create things. But if we’re continuing to bring on players like Lumley, Furlong and Eze that’s got to be good for our long term future. I’m saying 12th-14th depending on whether we can keep people fit. |  | | |

Injury and January sales (thinking Freeman particularly) would bite us hard but with a nice tight defence you've always got a chance of being consistent and upsetting the odds. That solid foundation is what's different now compared to previous good runs we've had in recent seasons.
Last week was great but the next couple are two very different games coming at the right time that will be a real crucible. Get a result away at Blackburn, give Brentford a good game without folding, we might be entitled to start getting excited. |  | | |

I think we could manage a quite pleasant 9th.
IF we were around the playoff places in January the owners may be more inclined to resist letting anyone go.
Do we know if Cameron and Wells can definitely be recalled? |  | | |

We've had a great 6 days and have been improving steadily since the first four games, Swansea aside.
However, it is really difficult to forecast what will happen next and over the remainder of the season. There are so many things that could happen in January with players being sold or recalled and if we carry on in the current form these become more likely.
In the meantime I am pondering two things:
1. How will we respond to going behind in a game? We managed a comeback against Derby but will we manage to do this on a number of occasions? Will we manage it away from home?
2. How long before someone works out how to break down our solid six and with everyone else studying every game will we be found out? My thoughts are wingers getting wide and around the back will give us problems. I was pleased that Bolassie wasn't attacking down our left for longer.
It will be a testing time for Steve Mc and all. We've given ourselves a bit of a platform we can hopefully build on (or stand still or fall off). | | | |

Well, we seem to be overlooking the promotion season under Warnock and that unbelievable run of games at the start of the season where we were unbeaten for 19 games until we had a shocker at home to Watford in December on BBC2.
In that run we won 11 and drew 8. Scoring 35 and Conceding 9.
But if you look more closely...
We won the first 3 games of the season, scoring 9 and conceding 0.
We then drew 2-2 at Derby.
We followed that with another 4 wins, scoring 11 and conceding 0.
So in the first 8 games alone, our stats were...
Played 8, Won 7, Drawn 1, Lost 0, For 22, Against 2. Pts 22 (out of a possible 24)
So we'll have to go some to beat that, and we have 3 more games to do it..

I don’t care as long as we are mathematically safe with say 6 games to go so we can give those games to the likes of chair , Oteh, Kaykay , Hall, Smyth , etc so they are ready for the following season |
like we did late last season...;) |  |

A player cannot be recalled from a season long loan unless a prior agreement was in place.
A loan agreement cannot be cancelled unless both parties agree. |  | | |

Reckon there are six teams who are definitely stronger than us and another 6 on a par with us, so anywhere between 7th and 13th if we can keep this side together. |  | | |

Most season long loan have a call back in January if needed. We've got one for Manning. |  | | |

somewhere between 12th and 16th, same as last season |
Well we didn't finish 12th -15th last season Dave!
So you're expecting us to get worse - any reason - losing players in Jan perhaps? | | | |

We might want to consider loaning him elsewhere- Manning's been on the bench two out of the last three games. |  | | |

ask this question after 3 losses in a week.
we could finish anywhere tbf.
Championship is so random.
And I think the points difference this season could be very close ie 7th to 19th maybe lot closer in this league than any other so more about how many points we get - if our goal difference improves and can we be more consistent
ie no six match losing runs.
I have no idea where we will finish. Be incredible if we got in plau offs but think that's slightly unrealistic - top half would be impressive - push on next season
But a few injuries to key players - ie three or four injuries and we playing players who potential but all kids together did not seem to work that well.
SO as to the answer to the question - who the heck knows - we are qpr - anything is possible - somewhere between 1st to 24th though perhaps.... |  |

We don't need to keep the run going. Just not regress back to where we were 2 months ago. All the teams around us will be thinking that there no reason to think that they won't be couldn't challenge for the play offs. I don't see why we shouldn't be thinking that too. Our big Achilles heel will be our inability to strengthen in January. |  | | |

I said 12th - 16th, didn't we finish 16th last season, think if we had won last game would have been 12th so we were in that range.
Really i've no idea where we'll finish but just think thats where we'll end up | | | |

Nice try. 3 more points we would have been 15th, so not 'in the range of 12th' at all.
Lose 1 more game we would have been 17th.
If we finish 12th, that IS better than 16th - can't believe we can argue over that! | | | |

I think if we keep Cameron, Wells, Hemed fit and keep Freeman and Eze we can finish in the automatic promotion places. Or 14th  |  |

I started the season thinking we should finish about 12th and I still think that's likely.
But I guess it depends quite a lot on whether we manage to hold onto our loan players for most of the season, and also don't lose players like Pav, Eze or Freeman in January. |
On the basis of the Warren Farm news I'm now bumping my prediction up to 10th. |  |

I said in the range of 12th to 16th, 15th is in that range is it not?
All I said was we could have finished 12th if we had won that last game (leeds would have been 3 points worse off and below us) so we were in that range to finish anywhere between 12th and 16th last season.
Of course if we finish 12th that will be better than last season, not really disputing that, just think we'll be around that area of the table. | | | |
