Ten games left. We'll end up with somewhere from 34 to 64 points. Care to estimate how many?
I'll make a donation to the charity nominated by whichever poster gets the right number.
The charity in question must be a registered charity, estimates need to be made when there are still ten games left (i.e. before the WBA game) and in the event of a tie the earlier bid wins. If nobody gets the right answer, we'll go for whoever's closest as the winner.
For what it's worth, which isn't much as I'm a poor pundit, I think we'll end up with 36 points which will hopefully be enough to stay up. But this isn't intended to be an exercise in pessimism, just a bit of fun to raise some money for a good cause.
No need to nominate the charity until you're asked, having won.

Refreshing thread and great idea, well done.

Happy to start you off with an estimate of 41, 3 of which we'll get this weekend.

Great shout fair play to you!

A fine, good-hearted idea. I reckon we'll end up with 42 points.

But, as there are already a couple of punts at this number, I'll stick my neck out and go for 44.

 


Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

Seeing as what I would’ve chosen has already gone, I’ll settle on 45.

There are a lot of nerves still jangling, especially on the will we or won’t we go down thread. Don’t panic, I personally think we will blitz it, finish 11th and with hopefully 50 points so I am going with that!
