    Anyone with any football knowledge, I'm excluding our biased supporters here, will be looking at our rise up the table second half of last season, and then watching our spending in this window might anticipate a good fight against the so-called big teams.

    Another point is that early season there are always a good few upsets to the traditional form tables.

    It will be very interesting to see how the big bookies price things up. That's always a good guideline.

    Bookies have made us 66/1 to do a Leicester!

    However I really feel that with the correct recruitment we'll will challenge the top 8 clubs and enjoy challenging in the cups for the first time in 15 seasons.

    With good strength & fitness training we can keep our squad / players fitter than during the cabbage patch era, get some good results (as much as I hate to talk about 'luck' because you create your own luck in life) and other clubs results go our way (the luck bit) we can get sneak the top 6 if things really go our way, with the right 5-7 players brought in we could give Levy's rotten Potatoes a run for 4th.

    Let's see how it all shakes out over the off season.

    I can see us giving it a go in all of the competitions, also doing well in each one, not necessarily winning anything in the first season of reconstruction (also known as freedom from fatty).

    Summing up I'd expect and hope for the latter stages of the cups and somewhere above eighth in the table.

    That would be a good, decent season and a springboard for the following seasons.

    Average bookies prediction for us has us 7th I saw somewhere.

    I'd happily take that now.
