Relegated
I think I said 5th and still feel that’s about right, assuming we make 2-3 additions in Jan that can contribute.
I don’t feel we need a plan B as far as system/formation are concerned, but looking at that bench on Saturday I didn’t feel like anyone could come on and change the game.
The teams coming down from L1 are always something of an enigma, so it might be a bit early to assume anything about next season (will Reading continue to be such a basket case club, for instance?). Plus there’s Chesterfield probably coming back up.
I think I predicted 13th, but obviously hoped we’d finish higher. We’ve already lost twice as many games as in the whole of last season, but overall we’ve proved capable of beating the average teams and struggled against the best. Important run of games now against teams we need to be beating if we want to stay in touch with the top 3.
If Luke Williams does leave (he hasn't yet naysayers) then I guess we'll all have to rethink our predictions.
So 14th then and very few of us predicted that. Shocking and a total waste of a season, hope next season isn't worse.
