redsquirrel Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 if we predict our season like that, will Wilbs score 37 in 46 games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaverface Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 So were now in credit based on the two points per game average, which gives us greater scope to relax and play with a little more swagger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redrobbin Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 = 2.2 points a game 46 games x 2.2 points = 101.2 points Just saying Yes based on this prediction we should win the league without a defeat. Rather like the arsenal envinsable team of 96' was it ? I haven't googled it, thought I'd trust my memory. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Anyway, we have had a great start; which is essential if we are going to really push for promotion this season, or be there or there abouts. Early days though, but things are looking good thus far.

Redrobbin Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Not so good.... Let's stick to this seasons results only. The average is better. Sorry I do tend to disagree with you here. We are talking about Bristol City here; judging from our recent history in win, lose, draw stats, I think these figures are encouraging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, based on the prediction of extrapolating everyone's points as they are now then we will finish third, where we are now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldlandReddies Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 P31 W14 D11 L6 Pts 53 When GJ was in charge he challenged the players to average minimum 17 points per every 10 games played in order to at least make the playoffs. From Cotts record above he looks to have 'mirrored' that target. Taking this season alone, that means we need another 6 points minimum from our next 5 games to be 'on course' which looks well doable.

samo II Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 P31 W14 D11 L6 Pts 53 That's a very decent record. And not wanting to open a can of worms, but SO'D only ever won seven league matches out of 40 league games, so that should speak a little to the impact Cotts has had.

CIDER NOT CIDRE Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 To add to that, in theory we should be in a very strong position after the next two games as they are both home games against S****horpe and Doncaster so a couple of wins or a win and a draw would keep our impressive start going and may even see us top of the table after 7 games....

Admin Ian M Posted September 1, 2014 Admin Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 If we can secure 3 points on Saturday against Scunthorpe I think we will start to see the team play more relaxed foootball. This squad know they are rated as one of the best in the league and that a decent start was so important & this in itself can lead to some nervy performances (& tight 2-1 wins).

ashton_fan Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 This is the first season in ages we've purchased new players early so they've had time to settle before the season started, in the past we've always been missing one or two and had to make panic buys near the end of the window, I think that's why we've got off to such a good start this time. With the strength in depth we've got we should be able to maintain this form for the rest of the season (apart from one or two of the normal blips any team has). By Christmas a lot of the teams with thinner squads will be struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipdawg Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 Cheers. I make that 1.7 points per game since he took charge, which if remained throughout the whole of a campaign would total around 78 points. Playoffs yay It doesn't take into account that Cotteril has (the loss of Baldock aside perhaps) improved the squad since last time out. Therefore, you could make an argument that logic may dictate an improvement in that average points return. However, I'm not going to get excited about possible promotion yet. If Agard doesn't settle or we get a bad run of injuries, it could all go to pot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Always Believesham Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 Everyone means invincible. and they also mean 2003-04; unless you do mean 1996, in which case you probably do mean invisible ... If we are serious about promotion, anything less than a win at home can be deemed a disappointing result; conversley, anything more than a draw away from home can be seen as overacheiving. Massive test this month with a couple of in-form teams, like ourselves, no one really knows who has form and who has class. We won't remain unbeaten for long but I am confident Cotterill has a squad that has the class to perform over the course of a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glynriley Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 According to half the forum the bubble had burst just a few days ago... Not half the forum, just a few of the same posters who moaned when Cotterill was appointed, then came out again when we lost at Sheffield United last season. (If they had got their way, we'd have sacked him after that result) Losing Baldock and 2 successive draws ( ) was all they needed to start being negative.
