Unless Hull City pull off a sensational win next week..... Looks like we will be drawn also, Derick.

Marko how about predicting the scores of the following Home and Away to the new sides in the championship against Town?
Burnley, Bristol C, Hull, MK Dons, Preston and QPR. 12 fixtures. Or I am open to one of your suggestions. :wink:

That is an excellent bet there Derick. Do we predict as the games come up, or do we predict them all now?

Sounds good. We can keep the scores and points tally in that ^^^ fixtures post......, I'll edit it as we go.

Suppose the only obvious rule is we predict before kick off on all the games. I'll wait until after the Sheffield Weds game before predicting Burnley.

Edit: Saw your late entry for the caption in the Stevenage preview. I had already done the points but I'll add the extra point to you after the Sheffield Weds scoring.

I won't be back for KO time tomorrow so I better predict this now, Derick.

Ipswich Town 1 Burnley 1

Ipswich Town 1 Burnley 1

Was going to plump for that myself. Just to make things interesting:

Ipswich Town 2-1 Burnley.

Preston are one of our bogey teams for some reason. So I am going for a Preston 1-1 Ipswich. :wink:

Well I think it'll be a draw also, so I'll need to go 0-0 or 2-2. Hmmm, decisions! Definitely think both teams will score, so in the quest for the 5 points, I'll say 2-2 draw.

Ok, Derick......, probably not the correct thread to chuck out some opinions, but I will...... After having watched ITFC against Reading & Birmingham, I'm going to have to conclude that Bristol City will score. I can't quite figure out if it's the midfields style of "across the park" passing that is putting pressure on the defence, or if the defence are indeed playing like 4 headless chickens......, whatever the reason, I do feel that they look extremely ropey at times, and Berra has looked remarkably unassured, definitely not as confident looking as normal. But they sit near the top, Freddie is scoring so it's not all negative. But please, I have only saw them twice and that is my opinion on both showings.

I predict Ipswich will score, but Bristol City, who really do need to get their season kick started, will score also.

Prediction: 2-2 draw.

I also think Brissel will score but only one. So its.....Prediction: Ipswich 3-1 Bristol C.
