As it stands, I expect just about top half. 10th or so. Play-offs again would be a success, bottom half would be a failure however we spin it.
To be fair, from the management's perspective, uncertainty around an ongoing and protracted takeover is probably a pretty legitimate excuse.Atm 6th - 10th is my prediction.
Them first 10 games look very favourable, and if we can get off to a good start, then we could mount a challenge. Get off to another seasonal poor start then questions will be asked. No excuses this time.
Absolutely bang on mate.Obviously impossible to say without a full squad, but I have to say I am slightly disappointed that, despite explicitly acknowledging it post-Blackpool, we still don't seem to have addressed our lack of physicality. I think without that steel, we're going to struggle against the top teams again. So hovering around 8th/7th/6th for me.
I think the players we do have will be good enough technically to see off most of the sides in the division again, especially with a fully-fit and one-year-more-experienced MacGuane in alongside Brannagan - a prospect we were all drooling over last season but which, due to various injuries, never actually materialised, IIRC. I also think Clare will be a better option than most people are giving him credit for. But I fear we may be out-paced and out-muscled again at times this year.
I would expect that if we came 10th you would be moaning more than everybody else on here!Between 12th and 15th. We simply havent strengthened (in fact are weaker) a squad that got bullied out of the playoffs and lost to every top 7 team. Plus those cannon fodder teams from last season have hugely strengthened.
If you offered me 10th now i would be cartwheeling down the street.
