    Top half with the defence we currently have. Top 6 with a couple of good CB signings. One perm, one loan until the back ups are fit again.

    Our defence is going to be a major issue until we bring a CB or two in and will cost us if it isn't fixed soon.

    I personally think we need another quality CB. However I also think people forget how poor many strikers are in L1. Defenders can get away with an awful lot.

    I think the Thomas loss references are to Bobby not Luke.

    Our midfield, wing backs, and forwards hammered teams last year. Four past Derby. Four past Wednesday. Three past Plymouth. Didn't give Bolton a sniff in the playoffs. I reckon we can still overpower most teams in this league. Loans will be sorted by the end of the month and we'll kick on from there.

    I'm hoping for a strong top 2 challenge and think that our players proved last season that we should fear no one in this league.
    Just hope we don't let Norwood go and that we can sign an experienced reliable lower league CB, then adding a couple of quality loans if possible would be the icing on the cake.

    My current prediction for our season is we’ll finish as Champions by a mile
