It’s disappointing with the parachute teams getting off to rather iffy starts (save Leicester, but hopefully a points deduction puts them back down to 0) that we weren’t a bit more aggressive in the market. I feel this could be the season where we have a fairly open top-end of the table.

usually the opposite with boro isn’t it

Last 2 seasons they’ve been top 6 then fallen off unless I’m mistaken

I have a sneaky feeling that Millwall will be in the mix this season .

I think still has shown in his shirt career that there is potential of a very good manager there so I think soton are still favourites to win league personally

Think sheff utd will rise back up but might be playoffs rather than auto race for them

It's definitely the most open promotion race in a long time though

Cautious optimism
I want a sober owner who isn’t carried away by the emotion of being a life long supporter
The path to sisu is spending more than we have in an unsustainable way

I think Boro have had a very good window and will be right up there.

I mean, they are top of the table obviously so it's not exactly a wild shout, I just think they will be really strong all season and be top 4.

Really like their management setup too.

Yes they look good. Alex Neil seems to be doing a good job there.

Smallbone is a great signing and they've kept hold of Ivanovic who they were worried about losing.

Tanganga going is obviously a big blow

I almost included them, but just felt a bit, meh... 2 home defeats already isn't great, albeit balanced out by 2 away wins.

It strikes me that there are so many potential top 6 contenders several of them have to have some real bad luck along the way. I do worry that our squad is a little too thin and that a run of injuries will jinx our season. Anyway, all good so far and all of our injury issues should be more or less over by the Norwich match a week Saturday.

Good player, but he'll inevitably miss games through injury.

Always thought Rob Edwards was over rated so guess we will see, took Luton to the premier League after 6 months in charge but all the groundwork for that was laid the years before he joined. Then effectively a double relegation for Edwards afterwards.

Think like Robins he probably needs a coach with another angle to him but that’s why I like him and Viveash.
