Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: michael on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:13:56 As it stands currently that seems about right for us.
There are no goals in our side at all. Agree with the bottom 2 as well, though not so sure that Tranmere will be down there. I would also be majorly surprised if Southend got anywhere near the automatic spots next season. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: alanmayes on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:14:12 I'd be putting Hudders,Brighton and Norwich in or around the play-off's.
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Rich Pullen on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:14:49 In the last few seasons they've been quite accurate with us.
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Peter Venkman on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:15:27 I'd be putting Hudders,Brighton and Norwich in or around the play-off's. Udders and Norwich definately, jury is still out on Brighton even with their spending. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: leefer on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:19:34 Charlton to win it for me,,,still got alot of quality in the team,Norwich,Leeds,Huddersfield will all be there abouts...got a feeling Exeter could do well,as for us it depends on any early momentum i,e..if we lost the first 3 it could be a hard slog,win em and we could get on abit of a roll.
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: alanmayes on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:20:10 The key for Brighton is getting their home form right and how quickly their new signings can gel. Last season they had a great away record.They've certainly got plenty of firepower.Hudders probably in the same boat,but a very strong squad
on paper. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Panda Paws on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:21:37 Exeter, Brentford and Gillingham toall the challenge the top 6.pull the other one
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Bogus Dave on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:27:25 Brentford to finish 3rd
Laughoutloud Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Rustle on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:27:55 That's quite laughable,Tranmere wont go down and neither will Wycombe,how they have hartlepool above us is a strange one'when they are likely to fill one of the bottom four slots,Gill's in the play offs ?,I think somebody has been on the sauce.
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Bob's Orange on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:28:31 Brentford to finish 3rd Laughoutloud Fully agree. And Tranmere to finish 3rd bottom seems pretty unlikely to me as well. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Peter Venkman on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:29:35 I have a sneaky feeling that Tranny will do very badly and vying for relegation, crap manager.....poor team spirit and few players or new signings, theres a big disharmony at the club right now.
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Bogus Dave on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:31:09 Tranmere are in dissaray at the moment being up for sale on ebay, losing key players and haven't really signed anyone i think. Not entirely impossible that they will go down
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Rustle on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:36:10 Tranmere are in dissaray at the moment being up for sale on ebay, losing key players and haven't really signed anyone i think. Not entirely impossible that they will go down Sometimes that can work in a teams favour by all pulling together and making a fight of it,It's the first i've heard about disharmony at the club tho. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Berniman on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:37:10 If you read it properly though, these predicitons were done before we signed anyone and before Cox had gone, though they did take into account the fact that Cox was on his way!
Juddie evens says that our most important signing will be the midfielder that we haven't signed yet! Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Bogus Dave on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:40:26 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/t/tranmere_rovers/8176586.stm
They've lost the likes of chris greenacre, ben chorley and club captain antony kay, and there only signing of note has been that of alan mahon. Theres the potential for a play-off hangover after coming so close last season, and they obviously no longer have the man in charge who got them there, instead replacing him with someone who's only experience came with messing up at celtic, and a moron. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Peter Venkman on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:45:20 Sometimes that can work in a teams favour by all pulling together and making a fight of it,It's the first i've heard about disharmony at the club tho. My Dads best mate up in Runcorn is a die hard Tranny life long season ticket holder, hes very concerned about the future of the club and a lot of the players don't like JB's style of management...apparently, they are also finding it very hard to replace the players they have lost...especially up front...ring any bells? :) Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Rustle on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 11:54:39 Reading all that it dont look good i must admit,I never had a clue they was in that much disarray.

As mentioned on another thread.....this didn't help either. http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5iwSPQNKUWmDO2YKUQL7v3BIHYDBw Tranny put up for sale on Ebay at £6mill....and it WAS genuine. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: leefer on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 12:06:39 Saw that on Ebay jjedmunds..my two pound bid is still in front.
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Rustle on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 12:08:18 Do tranmere own their own ground or are they just tennant's.
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Bogus Dave on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 12:08:48 Bristol city finished 10th last season didn't they? The old 10th place curse means they're in for struggle this season
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Peter Venkman on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 12:09:15 Saw that on Ebay jjedmunds..my two pound bid is still in front. I hope you win Leefer! :) on the Tranny thing again...this is a direct quote from a Tranny fan on the Yeovil forum yesterday. Quote Hello all, Tranmere fan here, just wondered how your pre-season is going?, in all honesty you couldnt be playing us at better time, we are nowhere near ready for the new season, we have no senior central defenders!! and if Barnes doesnt get one in on time we will be playing with a youth defender and a midfielder, even if he does they will not have played together We have also been playing poorly pre-season and Savage ( our best striker last year ) is now out until Feb, its all going wrong as a Tranmere fan and its a bit of a worry Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Peter Venkman on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 12:10:49 Do tranmere own their own ground or are they just tennant's. Quote Unlike many Football League clubs who rent their grounds, Tranmere own the nine-acre site at Prenton Park and the nearby Ingleborough Road training ground. They have been attempting to secure planning permission for housing development at Ingleborough Road, which is currenly used by the club’s school of excellence set-up. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: leefer on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 12:12:48 The thing with Tranmere though is there home form is generally good whatever there form..dont think they will go down.
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Rustle on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 12:12:55 I guess six million is a fair price then.
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: DV on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 13:22:29 Southend 2nd
Brentford, Gillingham in the top 6 no chance. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: pauld on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 13:52:19 Just out of interest here's their prediction for the Championship.Shitheads aren't impressed with So Tranmere are going to down because they're in disarray and have lost key players, whereas the good ship HMS Harmonious sailing from the happy harbour that is St James' Park will go straight back up as champions? Hmmmmmidtable mediocrity! 1. Newcastle United Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: reeves4england on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 13:54:23 But Newcastle are a big club, and big clubs always go straight back up. Without fail. Everybody knows that.
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Panda Paws on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 15:40:56 But Newcastle are a big club, and big clubs always go straight back up. Without fail. Everybody knows that. Apart from Charlton, Norwich and Southampton Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Fred Elliot on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 15:42:35 Apart from Charlton, Norwich and Southampton Leeds :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: pauld on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 15:43:47 Newcastle aren't just a big club, though, they're a MASSIVE club. Like Leeds. Except more massive, almost as massive as the known universe. Ohh, and passionate. So passionate the word passion isn't massive enough to express the massive extent of the passionate passion. Like Leeds. And they have the best fans in the world, because they cry on cue for the Sky cameras. So they'll plummet like a stone. Like Leeds
Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Rich Pullen on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 16:25:56 Hahaha you are all so media driven :)
At the ground today (my good lady wanted to go down and see the memorial) I heard more than a couple of Geordies complain say things along the lines of... "they always interview the idiots...." Also, on Friday I heard one of those idiots turn down an interview with Channel 5 because it wasn't Sky Sports... I wonder whether he has contractual obligations? :soapy tit wank: Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Fred Elliot on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 16:28:04 Hahaha you are all so media driven :) At the ground today I heard more than a couple of Geordies complain say things along the lines of... "they always interview the idiots...." We say the same Rich when they interview the retards in the town centre Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Peter Venkman on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 16:30:50 I think they interview a lot of eloquent, well mannered, intelligent people but they don't make good viewing hence the 'tards are the ones that get on TV!

Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: Saxondale on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 17:36:45 Saw Rod Liddle (milwall fan) in his times column today has us as dark horses for the year on account of our good signings and stability. Never thought people would talk about us as stable!

Never thought people would talk about us as stable! If we become stable and successful, many of us would become confused and conflicted and probably need professional help. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: dell boy on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 19:10:33 Huddersfield for me are a great bet for going up this season, at 14/1 definitely worth a punt.
Leeds will huff and puff but fall short again. Charlton are not ready to go straight up, but Norwich will be there. Southampton with all their backers and hopes could be a surprised package for relegation :D - I hope not. Downers - Wycombe definitely, straight back down where you belong. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: pauld on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 19:23:25 Hahaha you are all so media driven :) Not disputing that the majority of Toon fans interviewed on the media are idiots, but I don't think it's just a media fantasy to suggest that Newcastle are royally in the shit at the moment, and that they do indeed think they're a massive club a la Leeds. Which in fairness, they are a pretty big clubAt the ground today (my good lady wanted to go down and see the memorial) I heard more than a couple of Geordies complain say things along the lines of... "they always interview the idiots...." Also, on Friday I heard one of those idiots turn down an interview with Channel 5 because it wasn't Sky Sports...

The whole "big club" thing is a messy argument... Especially when teams like Newcastle, who haven't won anything significant since 1969, have played Champions League football this decade. You can easily argue for and against. On Friday there were messages on memories wishing Ashley was dead and not Robson... Which is OTT in any situation. They weren't there today! Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: chalkies_shorts on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 22:05:03 I'd go Norwich to win our league. I don't fancy Charlton or Soton - not even for the play offs. I think Leeds are getting their act together but I'd go for Colchester in 2nd. Exeter will do well. As for us, mid table obscurity beckons - and that will do for me. Hopefully, a little cup run and lets see if Macklin, Kennedy or Thomspon can make the grade while Morrison becomes our big sale in the Summer.
As for Newcastle, they'll struggle. They are in freefall. Also are their sT sales realy 25k - if so I rthink Norwich's 18k plus is more impressive. Title: Re: Four Four Two L1 Prediction 09/10 Post by: 4D on Sunday, August 2, 2009, 22:35:39 Saw Rod Liddle (milwall fan) in his times column today has us as dark horses for the year on account of our good signings and stability.
