Expectations for the Albion this coming season.

[wigman]

Just looking on the Big Board, and there are far too many non Albion related threads IMO.
I know that is only early June and the transfer activity has yet to get in full swing, but what are our expectations.
TB wants a top 6 finish and he has delivered this twice out of the last 3 seasons,
personally I think we would need 6 or 7 quality signings to achieve this.
I would be more than happy with a top 10 finish and to see more home wins.
What are your expectations ?

Relegation at best

 

[Mackenzie]

A season which we can be proud of our team again. Competitive and exciting to watch.

 

[Titanic]

With the current squad of players... low.

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

Expectation is low. Happy to avoid the drop to be honest.

majority non-football related threads until end of July, and until then: bedwetting over lack of number and/or quality of signings; 5 "fixtures" threads on day of fixtures, complaints about Boxing day travel; numerous threads linking us to half a dozen completely unrealistic Premier League players; a surprise signing well known player to get everyones hopes up, except those saying they are too old/injury prone/crap because of performance in 2010.

The highlighted sentence sums it up. Can't really say until we know the transfer activity.

Bearing in mind a lot of players have recently left us, no purchases would be disaster. Somehow I don't think that will happen though.

 

[BensGrandad]

I am hopeful of top 6 and really hopeful that we will recruit the players to push for automatic promotion What would we have without hope.

So do you honestly think that the current squad of players we have at the moment, will be what we will start the season with ?

No new players at all coming in then

No one can answer this question for at least another 6-7 weeks

But hope is not expectation. I hope we win the league but don't expect it.

I expect to see the spicy chilli pie this season and Guinness in the ESU.

Good attitude. We'd never bother with a lot of things otherwise.

I hope to get promotion I expect to do a lot better than last season and CH to restore our faith and give us hope.

Like every other club in this daft division we will have an expectation of play offs ... although half empty, there's no obvious reason to think we're behind any of the other 22 before we even get stripped off

 

[BensGrandad]

No BensGrandad HOPES for top 6 finish not expects or thinks

 

[ExmouthExile]

More of the same I reckon. We had a squad capable of taking us up and we dismantled it, sold it, and replaced it with a League One squad. While money is more important than success, we're not going anywhere!
