What Should Be A Realistic Points Target for August? 17:25 - Jun 20 with 8398 viewsGlyn1

We have six matches in August, but what should be an acceptable points target for them? Personally, I think that 9 points would be a very satisfactory start to the season.

Last season we won only one of these fixtures and got just 5 points out of a possible 18.

Hull (Home): 2-2 (1 pt)
Derby (Away): 2-1 (0 pt)
Preston (H): 1-0 (3 pts)
QPR (A): 4-0 (0 pt)
Brum (H): 0-0 (1 pt)
Leeds (A): 2-1 (0 pt)

5 goals scored: 10 goals conceded.

Less than twelve is a failure.

Time to update this based on what we know now.

I'll still be satisfied if we get 9 points in these 6 games.

And Bielsa's 3 or even 4 a day training sessions may be contributing to Leeds' high injury list, so maybe we'll get something off them.

If we can beat Birmingham we can go up there with an almost devil may care attitude.

If we do achieve 16 points in August ... and as far as I'm concerned that's a big IF, then we will have 11 points more than in the equivalent fixtures last season.

An extra 11 points last season would have taken us to 6th position at the expense of Derby, and we would have met Leeds in the play-offs.

But this is August after only 4 games and only an idiot would predict anything.

Any predictions?

Speaking personally, Absolutely Yes.

10 or 11 points from the first six matches of a tough set of opening fixtures would be an excellent achievement. As you'll know, Dwight, in each of the games so far we have done better than our matches last year, which I imagine you are pleased about.

Well, you won’t fool me so easily into making a prediction but I think there’s a maybe perhaps a reasonable possibility we’ll end up in the top 6.

It took Leeds a long time to break down Brentford last night. I think we have far more firepower than Brentford too. It will be a massive test , but if passed would give us nothing to fear (apart from ourselves messing up).

But, but, that means that Dwight thinks that the Swans are a success?! My mind = officially blown.

Seriously, I underestimated this collection of players at the beginning of the season.

What on earth is this Barry Big Bollocks routine from you all the fackin time??? 12 points from 6 is 2 points a game. Two points a game (92 points) would have secured second spot in each of the past 5 Championship campaigns (and probably more but I couldn't be arsed checking any further back). So basically you're saying anything less than being on course for automatic promotion six matches in is unacceptable. Who's to say one of the teams on 11 points or less won't finish in the top two with us(!), whether you reckon their performance is acceptable or otherwise.

I'm sick and tired of you coming on here giving it all this as if the fact you support the most successful team in England for the past 30 years makes you some football pundit extraordinaire. You support them because you're a glory hunting barstard like the rest of their long distance fans. It doesn't make you special, it doesn't make you deserving of kudos.

We have one of, if not the best squad in the entire league. Yes of course anything less than being on course for automatic promotion is unacceptable.

How many other teams have players like £20m Andrew Ayew and £15m Baston starting upfront for them each week?

How many other teams have the ability to leave players like Tom Carroll and Kyle Naughton in the reserves in this league?

We should be targeting promotion. We should be targeting large amounts of points each month. Just because one of the most depressing managers we've had in years deliberately lowered expectations last year, you do not have to carry that mentality on now he's left.

Correct Dwight. And we are. 16 out of 18 , carry that on and we’re headed for 115-120 points.
