I am really looking forward to see how Simms and wright kick on and getting Saka back and am excited to see Torp , I think promotion is on the cards

Anything but top 6 is a failure in my opinion - the squad is stronger and there are fewer teams who are guaranteed to be up there.

If we start fast we could be in contention for automatic promotion.

Top 6
There's going to be some very good teams this year so top 6 is going to be tough.

Played 46, won 46, scored 46 and conceded none. Anything less, Robbings out

Top 6 is the minimum imo.

And I expect that to be the case for King too. Not that I would endorse it, but would expect King would believe he has a decision to make re Robins if we don’t.

I think we can finish in the top 4 and with a decent start a real push for automatics if we add another cm and striker

Top 6. Pressure on Robins.

Personally would be disappointed if we didn't make Play Offs minimum.

All I really 'expect' of any team I support is that they have a good go and that we have some fun along the way. In terms of prediction, there is a possibility of difficult second seasons, high expectations, underestimating other clubs etc but if that frontline clicks we have real firepower. Let's say 3rd!

The last two seasons have seen us start woefully and then have a good run. Two years ago we sustained that run post January but last season the cup upset things. I am expecting lessons to have been learned along with a better start plus a steady run throughout the season, bolstering ranks in January if we are looking good at Christmas.

If we haven’t won the league by March it’s curtains for robbings I’m afraid

Top 6 minimum

Anything less is failure.

I expect us to be comfortably in the top 6 for the majority of the season

Top 4, and i think personally if Robins doesnt get a promotion this year he'll do a Southgate.

We've lost:
O'Hare
Godden
Kelly

We've added:
Rudoni
EMC
Raphael
Dovin* (Caveat until confirmed)

Almost the whole squad have been together for a season and have a full pre-season together. Unlike last year when we took 10 games to get out of first gear because players werent up to speed with each other.
Do you not think we're in a better position now than 12 months ago? Even without additional incomings.

But seriously we have no excuse for a poor start this year unlike the two previous and our squad should be significantly deeper. So a comfortable top 6 finish has to be the expectation I think.

Given some of the responses on here I expect an absolute festival of bedwetting and melt downs on here next season.
Though it's the same most seasons in fairness.

Looking at the training reels , you can see they are focusing on fitness and strength . So I think we will fly out the traps

I believe we are about 3-4 quality signing short of challenging, obviously happy with what we have done so far, but need more bodies in, otherwise for me about top 10..

In which areas are we short ? I would've said GK but not now we are signing a new one

Think automatics will be out of reach, but realistically anywhere from 10th to 3rd

I bet there's some on here that secretly fear relegation.

Why are they out of reach ? Ipswich proved last season what can happen with a fast start

The kit is that of a top 6 team. The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune could place us anywhere between 2nd and 9th.

Based on the current squad I’d say Top 6-8

If we get planned additions 4-6

If we sell key players in the balance of the window 10-12

I said 2nd last season in an unusual wave of optimism for me. I think we should finish in the top 6 but it is always a competitive league with no guarantees.

I'd also expect to get one bet right this season, so fingers crossed
