How many points *should* we have?

...if we got the results we 'deserved'?

Subjective of course, but I reckon it would be something like this:

Hull (a) D
Cardiff (h) D
Barnsley (h) W
Burnley (a) W
Sheff Wed (h) W
Watford (a) D
Millwall (a) W
Birmingham (h) W
Ipswich (h) W
Derby (a) D
Middlesbrough (h) W
Leicester (a) L
Blackpool (a) L
Leeds (h) W
Peterboro (h) W
Wolves (a) W
Huddersfield (a) W
Bolton (h) W

That would give us 40 pts. We'd be top by a three-point margin.

We certainly should have won the home games against Bolton, Leeds, Ipswich & Brum. So thats another 9 points

Agree that we should have won every home game apart from Cardiff, which was quite even. Has some palace fan put some sort of gypsy curse on the Amex?

I think there have been two games when we were lucky to get the points we did - the draw at Blackpool and the win at Watford... but we should have got a draw at Hull, and beaten Birmingham, Ipswich, Boro, Leeds, Wolves and Bolton.
