Feel like there's still a few things that will determine my final answer. Who we still got left to bring in? Does Hamer stay?
What is clear to me is that there aren't 6 clubs with a better group of players than ours. Top 6 has to be the minimum ambition.

Too negative - how can you not see Wright and Simms firing us to promotion by January

It’s always hard to say when you’ve got so many new players coming in. I’m going to go optimistic by my standards and say 6th.

Top 6 at least , maybe automatic dependant on who else arrives. Hope my optimism is realised.

We haven't spent this kind of money to have a rebuilding season . This investment is a push for promotion

If we keep Gus, add a Pacey loan striker and a left sided defender of quality an assault on the top 2, ending 4th winning the play offs

If we lose Gus, 12th. Hes that good

I know it’s always the case but feels very tough this season based on how new signings settle in, if Hamer stays, who else comes in yet.

On paper we look to have more quality in depth and we’ve only one loan so far. It’s hard to see us not being better than last season but then last season we probably over achieved slightly due to exceptional performances from Gyok and Hamer. I think we’ll start slowly again and MR will tweak things and bring in more players after the first few games, and again in January.

I’ve gone for playoffs.

2nd/3rd - but yes the play offs are a horrible place to lose, and really hits you for a while

I've gone playoffs. But if we lose the play off, I'd rather lose over the two legs in the semi finals, than lose at Wembley again. That pain still lingers.
However, this is our year. E-I-E-I-E-I-O....

Like the recruitment but so many haven’t played here before, so all depends how they bed in and gel. Would be disappointed if we weren’t top half/in and around play offs even without hamer.

Think we’re in for some exciting football either way, just hope the moaners give the new lads some time

I'm going to say 8th or 9th.

I think we'll have a slow start to the season but come good by the end, just missing out.

I think its clear to all of us though there will be a bedding in period. Wouldn't be surprised to see us in the lower reaches of the table for the first 5 or 6 games before we gel

7th…, we say it every year. But this has got to be the hardest championship year for a very very long time

By the same token I can envisage many other clubs regarding Coventry as a serious challenger for promotion

I think for me the defence is a question mark. Will it be as good as last year? Is Thomas as good as McNally. Binks as good as Doyle etc

I'm more optimistic than I was when last season ended. but I do think we may take a bit of time to start ticking. 5th to 10th, hopefully the right side of the line.

Initially no, by the end of the season yes. Still need that LCB mind and who knows who our target is there.

Wow, compared to the last couple of pre-seasons, the expectation level here has gone through the roof.

What a job DK and MR have done!

I think the only position we arent better than last year as it stands is LCB. Callum Doyle is immense and we all agree he will be an England international in years to come.

Other than that I think were stronger everywhere

Id like to think at least 1 of the 2, or a combination of both replace him

I think it will be the hardest to get out of in that i genuinely think the 3 that came down will be very hard to shift (bring back Sheff Utd and Luton!) but regarding the rest of the league i'm struggling to see much improvement tbh. Not sure what 6 teams would finish above us?

I can't see him continuing in this team that Robins is building for too long surely? Maybe someone already on the books will fall into the middle.
