Number of points after first 3 matches?

[Villafirst]

Well, I said 0 points.  So I will predict that we will have 3 points after the first three games. 

Fingers crossed it works again.

I think we can certainly get a result against Liverpool - they don't have Suarez, who is a big influence. Still think we'll have at least 6 points by the end of these 3 games. Also, Sylla will be fit and ready for Saturday.

If we had 6 points come Sunday, it will be a great return and a brilliant platform for the season.

Indeed - i would be delighted to be in that situation come Sunday .

We're already 3 points and 3 goals better off than the corresponding fixture last year, which for me is the most important thing.

On the basis that these three games last year produced 0 points and a goal difference of -10, anything above that should give us confidence.

I said 10 and maintain it is just possible. If we beat Chelsea we should be awarded an extra point on the general principle of beating the Most Self Absorbed One and his accolytes. I genuinely dislike them.

I could write a book on Chelsea. It wouldn't be very long.

We used to be rubbish for most of our history then did well for a season or two in the 50's and early 70's.
We had a shit hole of a ground with a car park in it.
Then we spent lots of money we didn't have and won some cups and were almost bankrupt. Luckilya hyper rich Russian bloke who some people think acquired his wealth by dubious means bought the club and bankrolled much repeated spending splurges buying lots of trophies which if you hold close to your ear you can hear a very hollow ring.
He did this so he could become a British resident thereby avoiding the fate of some of his peer group.

We obviously have three points after our first game, I would be very happy with a draw at Chelsea and a home win against Liverpool..
So I say seven points.. (Being Optimistic)

[JUAN PABLO]

I said 4  , changing to 7

[Damo70]

I am optimistic of beating Liverpool and six points from our first three fixtures would be excellent so I am treating tonight as a bonus/free game. Whether I will be so philosophical come kick off is another story.

[Smirker]

Too much pessimism in here. We will get 7 points. Beat Arsenal, get another draw against a Mourinho Chelsea team (will make it 5 draws 2 defeats) then beat the bin dippers at VP.

Can't wait 

Nice. It's going to happen.

Please believe it.

[Villafirst]

I reckon 3 points at the Arse, 0 points at Chelski and 3 points at home against Liverpool. Yes, I think we'll catch Arse off guard in that first game....2-1 with CB netting both goals! What do you predict?

Well guys, that was my original prediction above; I still think we'll have 6 points come Saturday night. Do you agree?

[Alan Rock]

Want 9, but probably 4 in reality.

Predicted 4 and would still be happy to take that.

[Gregorys Boy]

Am sticking with four points as think it will be a draw on Saturday.  Add to that what should be steady progress to the next round of the cup and what should be a home win against the barcodes and we will be laughing.

I think a lot of people would have thought, when the fixtures came out, that 4 points from the first 6 games was a decent return.

I'm going for 6th and we should have enough to beat Liverpool at home.

[PaulTheVillan]

Zero.

I'm already over the Luna.
