SmogDane 4,052 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 How will the Christmas month, including the new years clash with Preston, be for Boro? How many points will we get, you think? Swansea A Stoke H Huddersfield H WBA A PNE A Win the 2 home games and avoid hammerings in the 3 away games, maybe nick a point would be a very good outcome, I think. #UTB Link to post Share on other sites
RealSlimSladeyy 766 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 7 points would be a really solid return. Unfortunately I can't see us winning both of those home games. Link to post Share on other sites
smogsterking the Inspirati 2,453 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 7-8 points is realistic. 2 home wins and a draw or 2 against Swansea and/or Preston. West Brom you would probably say are a level above us right now so I think that's the one game you would probably not expect a return in. Link to post Share on other sites
Smogzilla 7,385 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Swansea are on a stinky run. Haven't won in 6 games. Hopefully we can get something from Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,246 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I'm going to say 4 points. These kind of 5 games predictions rarely plan out like I foresee it. I genuinely can't see us winning more than one game though. Link to post Share on other sites
RiseAgainst 3,777 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I'll say one home win, a 'shock' away win, a home draw and two away defeats where we don't score and don't look like scoring. Seven points, lower mid-table mediocrity and a growing sense of fatigue among the supporters. But I am increasingly confident we can avoid relegation (this season, at least), since the defence is improving and Coulson/Spence give me hope that we can eventually banish the spectre of Pulisball. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 All 3 of those away games are tough. Picking up 2 points from those would be good. I think we have to look at winning both the home games though. So 8 points would be a great return. I don't see us coming out of that with only losing 1 game, though.

Pretty decent return and it should see us remain lower mid-table. Just comfortably clear of the relegation places anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,952 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 The two home games are absolutely key to this month. We need to get 6 points out of those imo. I think we might nick something at Swansea, lose to wba and with Preston it really depends on what preston turns up, but we could nick a point there too. 7 or 8 points for me.

OldManGravz 1,311 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 10 points. Win the next three, lose to WBA, draw against Preston. My each way bet on Boro to win the Champo may still come in 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
macapes 1,886 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Got to win those home games. Lose to West Brom, obviously. The others? A point from them would be about all I would expect. So, 7 from 15. Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernSmoggie 4,223 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 7 definitely has to be the target! Have a feeling we will fluff one of the home games and get an unexpected win against Swansea or Preston. Link to post Share on other sites
White Band 831 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 4-5 points. Draw against Stoke as they are on the up (would be delighted to be proved wrong, though). We desperately need to win against Huddersfield and that's our best chance for a win from this batch of games. Could see us potentially nicking a point at Preston. Can't see us getting anything from Swansea or West Brom. Link to post Share on other sites

Maccarone 264 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 5 points. One home win plus two draws Link to post Share on other sites
