No caveats about if we sign a striker, a defender, if we get injuries etc etc.

Let’s see all those that think others will win it who they fancy.

So one/two questions

1. Where will we finish
2. Who will win it

1. Champions
2.

We will win the league, as we have the best manager and the best squad in the league.

I can’t see a clear outright side in this league that are better than us, yes York and Oldham will challenge, but they aren’t better than this side.

Management Accepts New Ideas And Criticism...When Im Managaging think MANIAC!!

Too many unknowns at this stage to say no other side are better than us IMO. We may win the league with what we have, but another option up top would likely seal the deal. Relying on a 32 year old Grigg and Quigs as back up doesn’t fill me with confidence.

Agree with Goku because if the best manager with the best squad doesn't succeed in winning promotion than it has to be regarded as failure.

The only thing that will stop us will be us . Iron out the silly mistakes and we will win it . The lack of consistency could haunt us again .

Can't salute yer can't find a flag if that don't suit yer that's a drag

Is that you sniping, dtp? I also think we’ll win the league. I’m not as worried about Grigg as everyone else seems to be.

Definately not sniping, mate.

I'm in full agreement with Goku.

My only concerns are if complacency sets in. Overconfidence from fans and players can lead to a run of poor results. I don't think Cook will allow this to happen as he does appear to have good man-management skills and is well regarded by players in that respect.

I think quietly 95% of the fanbase are extremely confident that Cookie will deliver us back to the EFL this season

We have the best squad (on paper), with highly talented players like Dobra, Colclough, Mandeville & Naylor that should dominate most midfields this season & a front line that should create a ridiculous amount of goal scoring opportunities

Are facilities & incredible support is second to none is this league

Get ready for a record breaking year, can't wait

Not being overly confident about this. Oh go on, promoted in January. League champions in April.

I agree, I don’t think Cook will allow that to happen. He has won more than his fair share of league titles in his time and should have the experience to see anything like that creeping in from a mile off.
