I would now be quite disappointed if we finished outside of the top 7 from this position and I honestly see us having an outside chance of automatic promotion. I never thought I would be saying this after the opening day.
I have several bets running on us to gain automatic promotion......I fully expect to be paid out.

We need to stay in the top 3 come the January transfer window, slot Noble somehow into midfield and acquire a younger, fitter, more direct goal-scorer, not only to cement a top 3 finish...but in readiness for next season in League 1.
