    - True enough, but then you can't predicted what other fixtures those big teams will have (NCFC) - N1fty5iftyCity, Dec 5, 14:23:41
      - of course - it could go either way (NCFC) - PrahaCanary, Dec 5, 14:24:37
- But.... (NCFC) - Barclay_Steve, Dec 5, 13:15:47
  - ah, the great myth about our tough fixtures (NCFC) - mr carra, Dec 5, 13:54:15

        and we're the same odds to beat newcastle as we were sunderland (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 5, 14:17:52
        
        really, strange (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Dec 5, 14:31:07
        
        thing is we're more highly rated now (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 5, 14:38:11
        
        yep true, and no one could've predicted sunderland would be so shit (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Dec 5, 14:44:21
  - Even if they had, they couldn't have taken much less from those games than we did. (n/m) (NCFC) - tudders, Dec 5, 13:34:10
  - Not sure if that's the point though (NCFC) - norway, Dec 5, 13:25:05
- Are you usac in disguise ?! ;-) (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Dec 5, 13:11:12

    - I think that's abput right. (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Dec 5, 14:07:47
    - At least you've put some thought into it. (n/m) (NCFC) - tudders, Dec 5, 13:42:41
  - He's got a point. If we maintain this form we'll get 43 points. I'd take that. (NCFC) - megson, Dec 5, 13:16:37
    - At The Risk Of Stating The Obvious... (NCFC) - Martin Peters, Dec 5, 13:32:41
      - absolutely, anyone from 8th to 20th could easily be sucked in (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Dec 5, 14:18:49
    - We have to improve in form over the next few games. That run in is terrifying (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Dec 5, 13:24:12
- I think it's a poorer league than previous years (NCFC) - Duck, Dec 5, 13:10:35
  - I think the poorer teams are consistently poor (NCFC) - norway, Dec 5, 13:14:26
