Nope Biggest pissboil of the season - losing at home to Harrogate Town on Boxing Day. Promoted from L2 - Bolton, Carlisle & Mansfield. Relegated from L2 - Stevenage & Morecambe.

Given the comments from the great man yesterday about HK taking us to the Championship, I'd be surprised if he kept faith with him for guiding us to 17th in the 4th Division...

ShireBlue 282 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Where will we finish? 16th POTS - Another loan signing from a L1/Championship club, hopefully Rowe though. Emerging star - Luamba maybe? Not really up to date on the yoof. Will Harry Kewell be here at the end of the season? Nope, gone in January. Will Abdallah still be here? Yep.

unsworth blue 527 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) Where will we finish? 23rd POTS - Another loan signing (not yet recruited) Emerging star - ? Will Harry Kewell be here at the end of the season? Gone in December Will Abdallah still be here? No Biggest pissboil of the season - AL purchase of the club* Promoted from L2 - Bolton, Tranmere, Salford, Port Vale Relegated from L2 - Oldham and Southend Whilst i am encouraged by several of the signings to date (McAleny in particular), the first team looks brittle at best and the midfield looks pitifully weak. The young lad from Norwich who is an Oldham lad may add some quality but its a lot to ask him to run the midfield. I am hoping we can attract a couple more half decent recruits to bolster the side. Also need assurance that the best of those players left in dispute about wages are going to stay.
