6 minimum I think, mainly from Wolves and Newcastle.

I don't think we will get anything from Spurs and Palace will be close.

4-6pts meets expectations with anything more being good and anything less being poor

I think we will win 3 and draw one, so I'm going for 7 points

I'd say we need a minimum of 3 points from our next 4.
Ideally 6 points, Either 2 wins or 3 draws and one win.

That should be enough to take us out of the bottom 3 especially
if the win is at Newcastle.

9 plus anything we can get from Spurs. Palace are ordinary and beatable. Wolves is a decent hunting ground for us and Newcastle are awful and definite relegation fodder (at least for now).

Palace unbeaten in 6 and have on paper had the toughest first 11 games in the entire league yet sit in the top half, far from ordinary, very tough game expected.

Nah. Ordinary. They might be unbeaten in six but only won three all season. Draw specialists. News flash: we’ve only lost 1 in 6 and too have had tough games. We can beat them and I expect us to.

Really need to be winning at least two of those.

If we're still on an unbeaten run at the end of those then we will be well set up for the Chrimbo period.

Nothing to fear in any of those fixtures. We're due one against Spurs, If we can keep the baby quiet we've got a great chance against Palace, Wolves are playing well, but we do OK against them and we're overdue a win at St James Park, so I'd go for 2 wins and 2 draws...

7 points with 3 of those coming against Newcastle would see us go into the Christmas period in a solid position.

Don't want to contemplate less than we need. 5 points. One win 2 draws, with at least a point against Newcastle.

6 would be a great return.
I'd prefer it in the form of 3 draws and a win.

I would accept 5, any more is a bonus, any less a little disappointing.

Palace 1- two draw specialists meeting, so a share of the spoils has to be strongly favoured.
Spurs 3- Don't know why but I fancy us more in this one than the Palace game, Spurs are no great shakes this season, and Conte will still be trying to implement his playing when they come to town.
Wolves 1- we have a decent record there, and are more than capable of at least a draw.
Newcastle 1- 2 teams that will be desperate not to lose, but we could easily take 3 if we nab the 1st goal and their crowd turns.

Might be overly optimistic, but we've only suffered 1 defeat in 6, and just drawn at the league leaders, so confidence should be high I'd imagine.

I just can’t see Eddie Howe getting the real impact at Newcastle……..majority of that squad seeing their days are numbered with EH just a stop gap………and if they go down well EH will no doubt get the boot….

Spurs well maybe “new manager” bounce but if we get a result against Palace surely The Turf will be well up for it and ultimately they’re not playing that well……

Wolves are a bit “meh” (as down with the kids say these days) so why not get something….

Upwards and onwards….

I think Palace will be tougher than Spurs.

Palace 1
Spurs 3
Wolves 3
Newcastle 1

8 pts willl be a good haul.
