Hi, young ITFC fan here. I am writing a piece on our forum about how the other clubs in the league see us and what they think our chances are of promotion or relegation in the coming season. I understand that there will be a few more comings and goings and that you lot may not be aware of all our deals so far but I would really like it if you could write a decent sized paragraph about our chances and transfers etc. I shall return the favour, if any of you are interested in the same sort of thing!
I think Brighton have had a very successful first few seasons back in the Championship and managed to recover well from the shambolic situation which resulted in the sacking of Gus Poyet. Although I do not know the details of his resignation, it seemed that Garcia was being slightly unrealistic with funding, well compared with our budget anyway! I thought you were one of the best teams in the division last season, echoing your position ( even if we did beat you twice!) and I enjoyed watching your fans going mental at Forest on the last day. There hasn't been too much activity in terms of transfers but the squad should be able to compete with just a few more additions. The signing of Nzuzi Toko looks an intriguing one and should add to the midfield, especially with Forster-Caskey's new deal. Mackail-Smith is a good forward too, as is Ulloa, despite his comical penalty against Middlesbrough!
At the moment, I think you will be in midtable, but you seem to have decent finances and with a few more additions you could certainly be in a similar position to last season. I wish you good luck for the forthcoming season (except in two fixtures) and all replies will be much appreciated.
