The Blue Real Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I know its early, but its good to see where people think we'll finish. I have gone for playoffs as we need to see how well the team will gel together but am sure they will get it all sorted out But could see us playoffs /Automatic it all depends on how we do for players get injured!!!

davegtt Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I think we'll have a slow season like Blackpool and make the play offs nearer the end of the season as everything comes together for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hometownclub Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 The division certainly looks stronger this season than last, but I am very hopeful that we will make the play-offs again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostofcecere Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I've voted mid-table; the league looks tougher than last year and teams sometimes seem to struggle after missing out on the play offs the previous year. Tranmere and Hartlepool are examples of this recently. The lack of a creative midfield player and a left back also worry me a bit but a couple more good signings in these area's between now and August could see me wanting to re-vote.

Rocky_Latic Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 (edited) I dont think we'll be the customary team to make the playoffs then struggle. I can see that being Yeovil with the players they've lost and the quality they've replaced them with. Us however. I dont think we're automatic standard just yet - I could easily see us finishing in the playoffs once again - not 3rd, but maybe 6th or so. However, I can see us just missing out next season and coming about 8thth. Millwall and Huddersfield will be my two suprise teams of next season I can see doing well. Forest are definately going to be up there - Leeds despite their problems should be around the playoffs but they're in for a shock this season. I think Luton will be up there as well, especially with Sam Parkin upfront - think we've just got a marginal bit more quality than them. Forest Swansea Huddersfield Millwall Leeds Luton I think Donny will just miss out once again, spending loads in comparison with the rest of the division yet still not managing to buy themselves promotion. With us just finishing behind them. Edited July 13, 2007 by Rocky_Latic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futchers briefs Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Am i missing something with the Huddersfield charge? Who have they signed (apart from possibly Robbie W !) I mean,they've even let their flying winger (Ahmed?!?!?!) go to Tranmere Ronnie Moore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butter Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Another upbeat prediction Senor? I voted mid table. But i thought that last season as well, so hopefully they prove me wrong again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Another upbeat prediction Senor? 14th means he's not gone for Relegation Battle or Relegated. He's in a positive mood! For me, heart says automatic, head says play-offs, which means I'm predicting a place or two higher than I did last year. We've got too many wild cards up front to really know how it's going to go, not that that's much different from being reliant on the form and fitness of one forward.

Senor_Coconut Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Another upbeat prediction Senor? One team that reaches the play offs always struggles the next season, we might be a stronger squad this season but we're not as talanted with question marks hanging over our two main strikers.

I mean,they've even let their flying winger (Ahmed?!?!?!) go to Tranmere Ronnie Moore No one yet of note. Though when Ritchie came in, there was an instant change of fortune in their results. They won 2 of the 4 he was in charge for, only losing against Scunny away. Before that, they'd only won 2 of their last 11. Same team, different manager, different idea's, different prospects. They do have a decent side, even with letting G.T.F go. Beckett is always likely to get into double figures. There's plenty of time for transfers to be made as Ritchie unlike managers who havent been at a club has now had time to assess what he needs. Hence why he's gone out and signed Robbie Williams for £100,000. There is always one shock team who no one expects to be up there. Huddersfield dont have the usual pressure from their fans like they have in years gone by, as the vast majority think they'll do absolutely dire.

Pretty much agree with this, I think the midfield at the moment is weaker, need someone creative in the middle. We've got a stronger squad now than last season and Shez worked wonders with them, with his own players in now I'm sure he can mould the team into a more successful group.

kalalas_koala Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I think how well we do will all depend on Hughes and Ricketts, if Hughes finds his feet and Ricketts can rediscover some of his old form i think we will be up there. However if they both flop i can see us finishing mid table as we will struggle for goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boundaryblue80 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Not done the actual votey thing coz I wanted to put top 10. Due to the massive number of gambles we've brought in, I'm undecided if we'll be good enough for promotion, playoffs or 7th-10th but I think we'll do better than "mid-table" so I'll stick with my unpolled option of top 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
