24 points in 8 games is a PPG that'd seen us win the league mate. What are you on?
And the exact reason why that isn't happening
Hahaha, that's brilliant.
74 altogether, so another 27 points
Last Word On Spurs, their last episode, about halfway in. I find Ricky Sacks has some of the worst of the Spurs anxiety that is seemingly common in the fan base, but I listen to six or seven podcasts and it’s not the worst
13 games remaining...6 wins / 4 draws / 3 losses...an extra 22 pts, meaning we end the season on 69 pts (and with 9 losses)....and probably 5th. That feels about right to me re the level we've been at most this year.Our remaining games are:
Palace (H) - win
Villa (A) - draw
Fulham (A) - draw
Luton (H) - win
West Ham (A) - win
Forest (H) - win
Newcastle (A) - loss
City (H) - loss
Arsenle (H) - draw
Liverpool (A) - loss
Burnley (H) - win
Sheffield (H) - win
Chelsea (A) - draw
Yeah agreed. If we go into the Palace game playing the same way we have, it’ll be a worry. I reckon 7 wins, three draws and three losses sounds like something we could muster though.13 games remaining...6 wins / 4 draws / 3 losses...an extra 22 pts, meaning we end the season on 69 pts (and with 9 losses)....and probably 5th.

If we can't regain a bit of our mojo and keep playing as badly as we've been of late, we'll grab circa 16pts out the last 39...and even 5th becomes tricky.
But yeah obviously if the coaching & playing staff pull their finger out, we could lose just the one game (Liverpool...it's written) and transform a couple of draws into wins (Fulham, Chelsea)...could mean something like 26-30 pts...and guarantee P4.
Really don't see us getting 3rd and as much as it stings to say it, I don't think we deserve it...that 10-game spell early doors ain't enough to justify it. City, Pool and the cunty neighbours just been better and more consistent.
I ran a quick survey among my Spurs-supporting pals and the more pessimistic ones say 4 W - 4 D - 5 L...while the ones at the other end of the spectrum say 8 W - 2 D - 3L.Yeah agreed.

I think we’ll spring one or two surprises but also fuck something up a couple of times to even it outI ran a quick survey among my Spurs-supporting pals and the more pessimistic ones say 4 W - 4 D - 5 L...while the ones at the other end of the spectrum say 8 W - 2 D - 3L.
Pretty much all agree we'll lose to City, Liverpool and Woolwich.
See what happens and count the chickens at the end.

How to achieve 68 points?
First of all, I just recently started listening to the Fighting Cock-podcast after fellow yiddo recommended it to me. I'm enjoying it and I also love the 1882-movement. I've been on the Spurs-list since the mid-90s (mailinglist) and since 2008 I have also been on the Spurs Odyssey forum. I also...thefightingcock.co.uk

Listen, I’m sticking to 24 points. Hopefully it drops to 21 in a few hours timeHe used an average of 11 seasons!
However this season is way above average.
28 points is a fairer figure based on his methods.
