The Telegraph predict us finishing 15th

[Any Old Iron]

I think they’re being a tad optimistic. What say you?

15th won’t be far off the mark tbh, not that I’m a fan of these things but right now does any seriously think we will do much better?

Obviously be hoping for a top 8 but just can’t see it

[Pshyco scored all 4]

I think we'll finish a bit higher than 15th . Between 10th and 13th as things stand . get that midfield sorted and we could surprise a lot of people and a striker with pace would also help . Obviously the downside is the dwarfs still in charge.

I think Leeds finishing bottom is a bit harsh on them. In my opinion they are the most likely of the promoted 3 to survive. I think 15th for us is about right......no fecking excuse to NOT have a decent cup run or 2 for a change is it then? Heaven forbid we might even win one for once!

This was the SUPER COMPUTER's predictions last year:

The Opta Super Computer has us around the same, but I looked at its predictions for last season and it was way off.

Worse than GTHC?
It is always fun looking at the comparison between what was predicted and what happened.

Prediction

 

I think it's about right. It's going to really depend on what happens to other surrounding clubs as well. Brentford in 12 looks a bit optimistic. I can see Forest falling but maybe not quite that far and I think that's a touch harsh on Palace. They also have spurs finishing 5th which is a big shout given the amount of change there and Fulham 8th seems optimistic as well.

No argument over their predicted bottom 5 though, even so it might be in a different order. I feel Sunderland will give it a good crack and maybe could just survive.
