daored Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 It's almost here, another season of no doubt ups and downs. So my question to fellow Red's, who in your opinion is going up, down, surprise package (good or bad) and top goalscorer. But more importantly as things are, what are your predictions for us. For me, Boro to be promoted. A good manager in Monk, still a good squad for this league, although I do think they will lose Gibson. I also fancy Villa, they've got goals, shouldn't concede too many. To go down, for me teams from Barmsley, Preston, QPR, Milwall, Burton, Forrest, us, Ipswich and Milwall. I think Milwall, Bolton and Ipswich to go down. Surprise team, Sheffield Utd, think they're coming up like we did a few years ago under Johnson. I wouldn't be surprised if they finish above Wednesday, they may just have that momentum and also think Wilder is a good manager. On the negative, Preston (feel bad saying that), loss of Grayson as manager I think is a big loss. Top goalscorer, know he's out for the start of the season but Kodja. Villa will create a lot and second season there he will have a good season As for us, I hope Johnson is a success because if he is the club will be. Stick to a consistent formation and starting 11. I think we will struggle, but there are a number of teams weaker than us, we will stay up , final position 15th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogkev Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Another very exciting season imminent with so much scope for anything to happen. I'm going to be lazy and just predict City's place - I tip us to finish 6th and win the play-offs. It sounds absolutely crazy, but why not? Good win last night, we should beat Barnsley, and then the momentum will sweep us to glory! Unity, hard-work and incredible team spirit will get us there!

Wanderingred Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Top six (in no particular order) Middlesbrough Villa Derby Sheff Wed Norwich Brentford Bottom 3 Ipswich Burton Millwall City to finish 19th. We are bound to struggle but the signing of Baker and yesterdays performance has made me a bit more optimistic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCRED Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Villa will struggle to make the top 6 as will Norwich. Sheffield Utd will be in bottom 6 with Burton, Millwall, Hull and Ipswich i have a sneaking feeling that Forest may do well along with Fulham who I fancy to get promoted. Us, who knows we have a reasonably settled squad and management team. We could have a very good season and surprise everyone which coincides with my first ever season ticket purchase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesBCFC Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 3 minutes ago, cynic said: Ipswich currently 0-5 against Charlton. Sunderland currently 0-3 against Celtic Both those teams will be fielding players who will probably start next week and, although I don't see Sunderland going down but could struggle, I'd agree that Ipswich could be relegated this season. My top 6 (no particular order) - Boro, Hull, Forest, Fulham, Villa, and a surprise Brentford Bottom 6 (no particular order) - Burton, Ipswich, QPR, Barnsley, Sunderland, Wolves Don't think Sunderland will go down, but a Villa like season without the resurgence, will finish around us (I reckon we will be 15th) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelRobartes Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 I am pretty pessimistic about our chances this season but I'm always wrong. It would be good to finish in the top half but I think we'll end up finishing 16th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 The 442 season preview came through the post today. They reckon we`re going to finish 22nd and go down with Burton & Millwall. Mind you, I can`t remember them ever being right before (and I have been anal enough to dig out previous season`s editions and compared to actual results!). What proves it`s all bollocks to me is that they have the blue few finishing third. 15th for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Do The Dziekanowski Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Am I the only one who thinks Villa will be mediocre again? Terry and Samba are too old now and can see teams countering against them, especially with the attack they have they aren't going to be sitting deep. Anyway, Top 6 Boro Wednesday Wolves Brentford Forest Reading (same boring team as last season who just don't concede) Surprise package - Us, we'll finish 8th drifting from the playoffs after Christmas Negative surprise - Norwich, another season of no form with there fans getting fed up Bottom 3 Millwall Ipswich Burton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Maesknoll Red Posted July 30, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 I'm predicting upheaval and unrest, along with a relegation battle. If LJ achieves more than that, I'll admit I was wrong, but I have no confidence in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

... Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 I know we will finish in 11th place, after a season of great consistency. After the first month of the season we will settle into mid-table, rarely straying outside of 9th-14th place. A couple of late wins will give us an 11th place finish. Apart from this, I predict NOTHING. tfj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alwaystomorrow Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Assuming no more positive signings, then 19th. worse squad than last year so why should we improve? same manager, unfortunately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 A chance of the pray-offs come March/April would do me. There's nothing quite like a late run for the top 6. It can be very nerve racking but not in the same way as a relegation dog fight........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Horsman Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Boro champs, Hull and Sunderland will struggle. As will Burton, Bolton, Ipswich, Preston and potentially Forest. Leeds could be top 6 or bottom 8!! No idea how their blend of imports and a coach unfamiliar with this league will do, but I'm hedging my bets. Sorry to say I think Cardiff will be much better under Warnock this season. I'd take a mid-table finish without a fear of the drop now for our mob!! Oh and I think Millwall will surprise a few on here, I think Harris has done some canny business on a tight budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
