Ten games is when we should judge.

Transfer window closing is when we should judge the transfer dealings. So far it’s pretty much universal we have had a good transfer window in very difficult circumstances.

We aren’t know for it but patience is needed.



We've lost Kipre and Kaba and replaced them with inferior players.

We stayed up last year thanks to the other team's points deductions, and Kaba grabbing some good goals.

The league looks much stronger this year, so unless anything changes drastically, I think we will be worried after ten games too.

Of course it cold change with three signings, but will we get them?


Brave post.

I'm with you.

I'm going into another season hoping I am wrong again.


Do you think we will go down?

Actually, what are everyone’s predictions?

Can check this end of season then.

I've said before I think we are going be one of those teams not massively pleasing on the eye but hard to beat and hard working, sort of team that grinds out 1 nil wins. A little similar to Malky tactics but without the big investment.
Mid table outside chance of playoffs considering transfer embargo ends in Jan and we are still expecting more players this summer. We may not of scored many pre season but players don't give full intensity in these games, it's different in a proper league game adrenaline pumping etc... I think our attack is potentially a lot better than last season. Kaba knew how to put the ball in the net but wasn't a great football player. Pre season friendlie results mean nothing remember drawing with Torquay with a full first team ready for the Premier league it's mainly looking at different shapes formations and fitness.

Goutas inferior to kipre? Different, but think it’s too early to say inferior. He’s looked a real find so far. We haven’t replaced kaba yet to be fair but we have massively boosted the attacking options compared to last season.


I might have been a bit hasty, I missed Wycombe and have just seen that goal line clearance, that brilliant to be fair!

Let's judge after the first five games, I'm still not confident on McGuiness and O'Dowda as a defender, and let's see if we do get another CH, ST and GK?

Goutas is world class, I am not surprised with his clearance after seeing him on utube taking care of Mbappe. Some players have jumped on a plane to Cardiff then off to Portugal and back again. I would think the last thing we want is players injured before the Leeds game. Bult has brought in Ugbo, Meitie and Grant to couple with Robinson, Ramsey O`Dowda and Colwill. It is only when we have tried these combinations that we can tell if the scoring is solved. I am super confident we can challenge for promotion with this squad, if I am right we all win.

On paper at least it doesn't look great, but I think we will be bottom half, top half if we get Moore, Centre half, and Keeper, but who knows?
