    With the uncertainty now, but you have to put the house on a finish. I'm going with playoffs.

    We've still got a great squad which will be added to, and I trust the board to get the appointment right. Automatic for me. However, lose Luca and that gets revised to low playoffs or just missing out. I think he's that important to us.

    Top six again.

    As long as we don't sell half the team and appoint another PE teacher. The league is weaker than it was last season - three strong teams went up on record points, whereas two of the three teams that have come down are more than likely going to be finishing the season with point deductions.

    A semi decent manager will get us in the playoffs.

    It's imperative we get the right manager in soon giving him time to get the players quickly settled into his way of thinking. It's a team game so everyone
    needs to be swimming in the same direction we band of brothers. Plus winning the first league game would help.

    There's a whole list of "Ifs" to have any real confidence in any prediction.

    Didn’t we go down the following season the last time we reached the play offs and lost the manager

    Impossible question until we know who the new head coach is and which players depart.
    I genuinely thought top 2 was realistic until Judas Duff left us.
    We probably won’t really know until 10 games in how the season will progress. At the moment I’m thinking mid table most likely but target should be playoffs as a minimum

    Bit early for me to predict.I’ll wait to see the squad we start the season with.

    Yea all depends imho on the coach we bring in and the players we retain and add to.
    Hopefully there will be no fire sale and we get a competent coach then.

    3 people voted for 21st to 24th I see. Did you actually witness how poor most teams in the bottom 3rd of the table were last season? I reckon even Schopp or Spackman would struggle to have us finish below halfway in this league.

    Correct. And we will lose every game 176-1 so our goal difference will be -8,050.
