Indy 3,283 Posted May 28, 2023 The trouble we now have is Southampton lead by Martin, very likely to be strong, Leicester with a new manager probably Robins or better and Leeds will also very strong, it’s going to be hard to get into the top 6. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think we'll do well to get back into the top half next season in all honesty. I have little to no hope of blagging a top 6 spot 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will be pleased if we are not in the bottom six next season. That's what I feel at this minute. We need a goalscorer (or two). That will determine if we get into the top 6. Just look at any top charts for goalscorers in any division. Those that are listed in the top 10 often are in teams at the top of their respective leagues. Unless Idah and Sargent suddenly hit their form then it's a struggle next season. Unless we buy someone over this summer. We can but hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And every year, in every FL we have the same predictions. Clubs who are nailed on certains who fail and surprising clubs who challenge. The problem for relegated PL clubs is how many of their big earners can they shift, bearing in mind it was those players who got them relegated. Some like Sunderland drop and continue to drop. The Championship is littered with former PL clubs....... perhaps they didn't 'give it a proper go'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know I am! Hello there Danke! I've got a week off work now so I'm as happy as an Ipswich fan on bin day. New season seems along way off yet. Lots to be done and more questions than answers at the mo but that's to be expected at this point. That said, if we don't buy a defensive midfielder this year my head may well explode.

Harry53 207 Posted May 28, 2023 What I like about the teams coming down, is that we won't be favourites, or expected to get automatic promotion next year. Our target should be above Ipswich and in Play offs. Lower our expectations and maybe we shall be happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe best we will not be expected to. With our rebuild if we finish around 6th that could be realistic. It's going to take 2 seasons for us to be ready to attack promotion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yobocop 1,095 Posted May 29, 2023 On 28/05/2023 at 16:14, Monty13 said: Imagine Leeds, Leicester and Southampton fans were fairly confident of that too this year. I don’t expect us to be in a relegation fight, it’s not likely IMO, but it’s certainly not impossible if things slide like they did in the last 11 games. We’re not going to have uncommitted players at the start of next season the injured more experienced players we lost towards the end of the season will be back Looking likely we will add experienced players to our ranks we will have a modest budget to compete with sales of valuable players unlike most and resale of a sought after Leicester playmaker We will have the benefit of a rest and preseason in the legs of sara, Nunez giannoulis and a few others who desperately needed that another year of parachute payments we have no reason to worry about relegation and anyone who suggests this has probably conveniently forgotten about the facts above Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
