Just spent an hour or so doing every game involving the top 8
predicting the score. Surprised to see Watford winning the
top spot on the last weekend (on GD)
Even more surprised (despite us losing at Norwich 1-0 and Watford 2-0
that we ended fourth by winning the last game just above Barnsley on GD
with a miserable Swansea in 6th, Bournemouth missing out.
46-93 62-26 Watford (GD 36)
46-93 64-32 Norwich (GD 32)
46-82 77-45 Brentford (GD 32)
46-78 64-48 Reading (GD 16)
46-78 54-44 Barnsley (GD 10)
46-77 50-37 Swansea (GD 13)
—————————————————-
46-75 69-43 Bournemouth (GD 26)
46-69 56-46 Middlesbrough (GD 10)
46-67 64-44 Cardiff (GD 20)
I have a shock defeat for Norwich at QPR, and Reading
beating Cardiff 2-1, Swansea 3-1
I actually think if Swansea lose their next or get DLD they could crash out of the top six by season's end probably because they fail to beat Wycombe in Swansea (but my head forced me to put them as winning games like that)
==============================================================================
Gonna post all my predicted scores and expect to get at least 5% results right (cough), and will have "fun" updating the tables as facts (reality) replace wishful-thinking.
"Shocks" bold
