I never said that we finished 14 points ahead of them did I, I said we earned 14 more points than them which is a known fact set in stone. That doesn't indicate a team that struggled last year.

Is Baker your new Cody McDonald?

Point taken, they've made a few signings but none that say that is a statement of real intent. Assombalonga is only going to keep improving at the age of 21 and I think Mendez Laing will be a big player for them this year. They signed Jack Baldwin and Conor Washington in January for 500k each...

I'm convinced that Sheffield Utd, Bristol City, Leyton Orient, Preston and Peterborough will make the play offs. Last place is up for grabs.

Last year we earned 14 more points than the team that was 4th from bottom, doesn't seem that much of a struggle.

Leyton Orient will be in the play offs again I reckon, don't fancy MK Dons. Peterborough will probably make the play offs.

How many are people are actively boycotting though? I haven't set foot in sixfields but I wouldn't consider myself a boycotter. Regardless of boycott or not, sixfields would still be empty. You can only blame SISU/ACL for the lack of investment on the pitch as they have created the situation...

Urquhart doesn't look as if he will get much of a look it, one of Willis or Clarke will be our regular right back/wing back. If we are playing 352 for the majority of the season we will probably need one more.

In terms of what we need Ideally 2 strikers At least one central midfield to push Thomas and Fleck for a place in the first team Another winger if we plan on playing 442 regularly, if not it will be ok with what we have Another centre back if we plan on playing 352 regularly, again if not we...

You don't really get more time on the ball in the higher leagues though, the players are fitter, faster and stronger than this league and now lots of teams are adopting the high press, high tempo style. In general the players are of a much higher quality so it may seem they have more than time...

Wasn't he quoted at the Nuneaton - Derby fixture saying he'd like to finish his career here or summat like that which started it off

So have we kicked off?

He got a better offer than ours, let it go.

Guess I should have used this at the end :sarcasm:

Apparently Higdon is in advanced talks with Sheffield Utd now.

Top post mate...

I think we did vs Nuneaton and maybe once or twice in Italy, we're getting close to the season now and Pressley has played 352 in the last 3 fixtures which would indicate it is plan A at the moment. I guess we may get a better idea tomorrow

It's just he seems to be putting a lot of time into the system if it is intended to be a backup/plan B.

So do people think we will start the season with 3-5-2?

Maybe, looks like both O'Brien and Swanson are going to play centrally for us though. so 3 out of Thomas, Fleck, Daniels, O'Brien, Swanson. I don't see where Barton will fit in, especially if we sign another central midfielder as Pressley wants to.
