Album + Single UK chart predictions
Apologies if this exists elsewhere, I've had a look but couldn't see.
Anyway,

PFAYM: Number 1 probably (what is released that week/the week before?)

INW(JTEOL): I think that judging on the strength of 6 Music at the moment, and the fact support from NME has been unprecedented in comparison to previous campaigns where a single has been involved, I'll say definitely top 5, and will probably reach number 2.

The last time it happened was with Tolerate and Truth. So it's long due to happen again!

True but I sincerely doubt it will. The single would need to be on the radio 1 A list for it to crack number 1. That or the band release 6 different formats of the single.

Aye, but the thread is called 'predictions' not 'fantasies'

Album #1

Single could go anywhere in the top 10, even #1 depending on other releases etc.

I'd love it if they got the double and topped both charts. (I nearly wrote "We" but then I remembered we aren't a football team?) In fact, I just had a weird flashback thing that I thought only happened in my dreams?
Anyway... I've calmed now.
So probably no higher than number 2 for the album and top 5 for the single.
Forget that remark about flashbacks, I'm ok now.

Well the Iron Maiden album is expected to shoot in at No 1 this week so the Manics could do the same.

Album top 3 easily, as sales aren't that impressive at the moment, so depending on what is released the same week or week before I can see a very strong possibility of a #1 album.
Single...well, single sales are really high at the moment. I can see a top 10, but only just. I'll go for #7 or #8 but I hope it's higher.
