Toon and gloom, predictions for next season.

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread

This time last year most of us were predicting that Newcastle might just get into the top 6 but would probably end up between 5th - 10th in the league.

So what of this season?

Where will we be after the first 6 games?

Will we beat the maKems?

And where will we end up next season ?

Low to mid table after first six games and I reckon we'll finish 9th.

With the current players (and those rumoured) I think the best we can expect is 7th or 8th. But with a couple of big name signing we can get 3rd or 4th.

I think we'll win the Derby 3 - 0 and think we'll get off to a good start. I really we do as if we don't Mr Robson will be taking early (?) retirement after 6 or 7 games.

I think this will be a bad season for the maKems, who could well be in the relegation zone for most of the season, or atleat untill Monkey heed is sacked.

Rik you are very optimistic in your predictions. Beating the smb 3-0 at home. I just can't see it. Half the team will be missing. Still I hope you're right.

Without some CLASS signings..........16th after 6 games. We'll lose to the Mackems. Robson will be gone by Christmas. We might stay up - 16th at the end.

Only Leeds, Liverpool and possibly Man U are better than us when we are at full strengh we should get 4th. Spurs and Chelsea are similar to us so put them down for 5th and 6th. the likes of Ipswich are one season wonders ,the mackems are two season wonders probaby ending about 15th. Villa and West ham are gonna struggle in the lower half. Derby are going down with Fulham and Bolton. Boro and Blackburn will be the surprise teams .

After 6 games: 7th place We will beat the mackems We'll end up in 9th place.

I dont' think Fulham is going down. Bolton, Derby and West Ham will struggle.

We'll be 18th after 6 games.

We'll finish 13th.

We won't beat the mackems, no matter how much better than them we look by half time. Seen this movie twice already.

I don't normally make predictions but I do predict with some confidence that most of the above predictions will be wrong. The trick is knowing which ones ....
