Where do we finish?

Thu Feb 01, 2024 6:04 pm

If the names mentioned, Essbrand, Turnbull and Horvath, plus any named potentials, don't arrive? where do we finish?
And if a few arrive, where do we finish?

I'd say without, around 16th and with potentially just shy of playoffs.

A bit premature to predict yet; but my feeling is that our squad is greatly improved by the signings so far...

I'll stick with my comment that 'safe and mid-table' was the best we could expect this season; and anywhere near a top 6 place would be a dream... :ayatollah:

I think there was a poll at the beginning of the season and most said between 6th and 12th and they'd be happy.

As Sven said really, much improved squad and I'd expect to finish around 10th to 12th. If we can push towards the play offs then that would be awesome.

Somewhere between 10th to 14th.
Which is acceptable providing we stop the current downward flow and make bigger strides for success going into next season.

We've improved. I think top 10 would be a good season. Top 7 would be over achievement, but welcome.

Some solid squads above us. Should be a comfortable/boring few months of wins and losses.

I would say somewhere between 9th and 12th. Would have bitten your hand off for that before the season so would be happy.

I would say if Ramsey stays injury free and so does O’Dowda (when he’s back at the end of February) then we may have an outside chance of the top six.

But I don’t think it’s likely they’ll stay injury free unfortunately.


Like I said, I think between 9th and 12th will be a decent season.

2nd and Promoted after the final game of the Season. Well go on a run and, not lose a game from now until May. :bluescarf:

10th is realistic I think.

The manager needs to take the shackles off especially at home and start taking the game to the opposition more.

I'll go for somewhere between 12th and 15th.

Late play off run but top 8 for me might just miss out but we will be competitive

At least 12th place would do me, officially then a top half of the table finish. If we can scrap 10th, fantastic...and hopefully we'll continue building into the summer and next season.

Good achievement if we’re in the top half.
