I see 90% say we will come straight back down tho.

Can hardly blame them for thinking that. Most of us think the same lol.

I’m hoping if we go up that we will stay up this time, we were so unlucky last season with the fixture backlog, I’ll be delighted with 18th.

We gave the team who are currently 4th a pretty good game last month. I know the cup is a one off but we weren't disgraced and I realise they did lose in the next round to Posh so they couldn't have been that good

Squad sizes are bigger in the championship or at least they were this season, plenty of scope to bring up to 5 decent quality loan players in to supplement who will be still here. Some will have to be moved on. One thing's for sure we will be competitive on the pitch if not off it financially. Should be aiming for 18th to 4th from bottom, anything else is a bonus.

Well, many things could change between now and the start of the new season but I think we’ve got a better chance of survival than we’ve had in previous visits to the Championship
