Well it looks like we could be in for a bit of a ride over the next few months.
This league is stronger as well.
Off-field decisions and recruitment is going well.
More goals score. Similar number conceded.
‘Our bad recruitment is now looking not so bad really…
But as mentioned by someone, we are better than this stage last season. Even though we are a work in progress.

I’d argue that the 3 teams that come down are much better than the 3 that went up,I keep asking this, but what evidence is there that the league is stronger?
I’d argue that the 3 teams that come down are much better than the 3 that went up,
and Wigan and Reading were complete messes - so I’d say Plymouth and Ipswich are stronger
Not a lot really?I keep asking this, but what evidence is there that the league is stronger?
Remember when they nabbed McNulty from us? Things change quickly in football.What a drop Reading are having
Interesting that only one team in the playoff places at this stage last season stayed there.Well it looks like we could be in for a bit of a ride over the next few months.

AgreedInteresting that only one team in the playoff places at this stage last season stayed there.
Yes i think only 5th and 6th up for grabs this yearAgreed
But a factor could be that there is only 6 points between Watford in 3rd and Reading in 14th making it easier for others to get into the play offs / teams to fall out
This year 3rd and 4th have gone in my opinion
Yes i think only 5th and 6th up for grabs this year
If we end this season like we did last season, we could quickly make that only one spot up for grabs.
It's in our hands now all we have to do is match the points of the teams below us over the next 19 games and we have another shot at the play offs

Great position we are 7th over the last 20 games in the form table so consistency is there and goal difference tells a lot aswell gelling nicelyExactly this, once you're in there it's yours to lose. The positive being we're in incredible form at the right time.
More money spent on transfers throughout the division, higher quality loans , quality of squads taking the place of the teams that went up ..Leeds southampton and Leicester far better than Burnley Luton and Sheffield united , Ipswich very strong from league 1 , Sheffield wednesday and Plymouth stronger than Reading Wigan and Blackpool.I keep asking this, but what evidence is there that the league is stronger?
Said it previously -

Hull , albion , boro , City all very strong , Watford Norwich with strong squads yet can't do as well
Very strong league this year
People usually say the leagues weaker don't they? " never have a better chance etc "Valid points but it seems they get trotted out every year
I just think it's such a subjective argument it's meaningless.
Its irrelevant either way really, we just need to keep improving and get out of this league.
