Dont forget I was the one that said Everton will get 40 points at home this season and every one thought I was nuts.
Optimism has been a horrible thing for us toffees over the past few seasons...so let's hope that is behind us...onward and upward

You arent Kidding :D but when I said thet in the beginning of the season it wasnt optimism more insight to the way the club played at home. Moyes had the lads Fit and hustleing and sticking Rooney Rads and Campbell in together at home instilled a confidence in them that we are going out there to win and not play not lose. It wasnt Optimism but attitude that made me believe we would be hard to beat at home. That is what has been lacking at Goodison for some time. Lets face it we dont have great players ( well not yet anyway) but we have a good team and Moyes's attitude spread right through the team. This is basically the same team as last season with a few exceptions. and here we sit with 42 points and 13 matches left.

I have to admit I was dubious of your 40 points from home games prediction. We currently have a 7-4-1 record. 25 points from 12 games is good, not fantastic but good none-the-less. Only the 4 teams above have better stats. The draws around Xmas costus several points. Do you still think we can pick up the remaining 15 points from 7 games? Perhaps 38 points is possible.
The Leeds game will be interesting.
