oafc1955 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 So…about 21st then…sounds about right going off our recent form and current squad additions. We might surprise a few if we can keep a settled eleven but I seem to be saying that every preseason. Lets be honest we haven’t a bloody clue have we!!

Frankies6 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I reckon as high up as 12th or as low as 15th this season , start well but fall away due to paper thin squad , hope I'm wrong and we go up as champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t take friendlys as “recent form” playing non league - premier league opposition and at least 3 involving teams of players who won’t even be here Having said that I’m taking 22nd as a good season because our midfield is wank (we can’t even replace Garrity) and we have not replaced McAleneys goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littlemoor Lad Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I think mid table would be a realistic target and Hallam for better but that doesn't factor in injuries and any behind the scenes mayhem Curle might disagree with, in which case we're down.

deyres42 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 We'll be alright, lower bottom half, Sutton and Swindon for the drop, Port Vale and Tranmere to slug it out for the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maximus1267 Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 In reality none of us have any idea how this season will pan out. Some are optimistic and some not so. Evidence, recent history and squad quality or numbers leads people to be very negative about our chances. Those of us who remain optimistic believe the division is so poor that anything can happen. Bit of luck, decent manager, staying injury free and other teams under performing suggest we could do well maybe. So many people on here talk like they are experts, were just fans.
