I think it comes down to streaks of form (or lack of it) that decides things like this; an injury here or goalscoring streak there will set a team on runs of results. So whilst I can’t argue with most of your predictions on present form, I’m worried that ‘The Force’ seems to be with Liverpool at the moment, but I also know that ‘there’s many a slip ‘twixt cup and lip’, and I’ll keep on believing ’till the last. It’s all psychology and kiddology and I hope our crowd start to scare some teams into defeats. Come on City.

JazMCFC, I hope we do, and thinking about it, we should win at least one of them, possibly two or three. Then again I had us down for three away wins!

M K Brawn, that’s impressive forecasting from the start of the season. I’d have been to wildly optimistic back then!

Its gonna be close..

.but after you mentioning the away games being the problem you have us only getting 4 points from Tottenham, Utd, Everton and Villa at home… I’m sorry but we’ll get 6 or 7 from them

I actually made a start of season forecast of city finishing with 68 points ( honest ) and to date they have only varied from this against my schedule by + 4 pts and -3 points on a game by game basis.
Presently I have them on a finish of 69 pts with only two projected losses ( Chelsea & Arsenal A ) drawing spurs, fulham, mutd and west ham and winning rest.
Its interesting and as you say cant afford any more poor shows
