October predictions.....
Come on then boys & girls. Let's see if the current positive atmosphere has made us truly optimistic. How about predicting the points haul for October. That's my prediction:
Accrington A : 3 points
Shrewsbury H : 3 points
Cambridge A : 3 points
Portsmouth A : 1 point
Fleetwood H : 3 points
Plymouth A : 3 points
Total : 16 points & in 4th place.

Re: October predictions.....
Five wins from those available games would seem a touch fanciful. Nothing wrong with being idealistic, however like to weigh up the possibilities before jumping in without due consideration. Taking a moment to view league standings and other relevant factors :
Accrington Away : 1 point
Shrewsbury Home : 3 points
Cambridge Away : 1 point
Portsmouth Away : 0 points
Fleetwood Home : 3 points
PAFC Away : 0 points
Think that's a fair reasoning. Would be good, very good, to take maximum availability from the above but in all truth it's too impractical to entertain.

Re: October predictions.....
Only the Pompey game really concerns me. They always seem to be a jinx side and there’ll be a bit of niggle going into the game, especially after the Jacobs business.
4 wins, a draw and a loss for me. 13 points. I’m expecting the wheels to come off Plymouth at some stage so we could meet them at the right time.

Re: October predictions.....
Am with you on this Marko. A high(ish) scoring win and a clean sheet against Accrington could see us start out on a fantastic run. Should not fear anyone there, but as Tang mentioned, the "Jacobs saga" could make the Pompey game quite tasty and certainly Cowley has had a lot to say about us! Cambridge will see this as a potential local scalp and so perhaps should be the ones to be most wary of!
Have to say it is not very comfortable sitting on this fence!

Re: October predictions.....
A few weeks ago I said there were signs that sooner or later the team would click and give someone a right thrashing followed by a winning streak. Maybe Tuesday was the beginning of my prediction so I’ll go for 6 straight wins, that really would be outrageous and whilst it’s highly unlikely this team is very unpredictable. Let’s just enjoy the journey because I can’t remember looking forward to the next game more than I am tomorrow’s for a long long time.

Re: October predictions.....
Yes, after the 6-0, i did remember someone did say about a hiding……, but couldnt find the post. Was going to give them the thumbs up.
Belated thumbs up, Charnwood

Re: October predictions.....
May have to rethink my prediction at Pompey, just seen they’re 3-0 up at HT v Sunderland.

.... as Marko said, these are nearly always Jinx threads, many a true word said in jest.
