Super Scotty Murray Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I know we have not had chance to see what signings we will make and which we players we may lose, but what is your early feeling as to where we will finish next season? I reckon we will get off to a good start but will fall away towards the end of the season and end up mid table, which would be great for a first season in the Champ.

Lew-T Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Content with mid table, I'd be very happy with 10th, ecstatic with Play Offs. I think that's a realistic attitude from the fans for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrs Court Red Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Hmmm predicted 6th lowest budget doesn't fill me with confidence in tearing up any trees, although I honestly think this squad can trouble the right end of the table if the new additions gel into the mentality.

Coxy27 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Went with 7th-12th, which I personally think would be an excellent season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS2 Red Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I would be very happy with a 7th-12th finish. I don't think it will be like the last time we were newly promoted to the Championship, but I think we have just enough to be secure in mid-table. Hopefully we build from there over the next couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelRobartes Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I went for 13th-21st but I think we'll be closer to 13th than 21st. Last season I was hoping for playoffs but expecting us to finish 7th or 8th so hopefully the team will surpass my expectations again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ten minutes of rough Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Far too early to predict, wait until we have completed summer signings. But if we started with the current squad it could be good enough to finish mid table I would hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I said 13th-21st. I think it's going to be a VERY tough championship. Depending on who comes up from L1 only a couple of teams will consider us a bigger club than them. A top half finish would be a real achievement IMO.

Sir Colby-Tit Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I genuinely believe that this seasons squad would have finished in the play offs if they had played in this seasons Championship. As long as any new additions don't unsettle the cohesion, I reckon we should be in with a good chance of this next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BcFcOneLove Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yes 7th to 12th would be a very good first season back but I personally would be disappointed to finish lower than 6th. We'll be the only club in the league who would be Champions from the previous season, 16 games unbeaten, brimming with confidence. The stadium entering the second half phase, sell outs every week, I honestly believe SL will back SC over the summer and will be devising a plan to be challenging at the top. Yes it's football in one of the most difficult leagues in the world and there are no guarantees but SL isn't getting any younger and I think he has every intention of playing the first league match at a completed Ashton Gate against the likes of Chelsea infront of 27,000. Wouldn't surprise me if Cotts came out in July and said 'right, we want to win it". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garland-sweden Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Mid table Think is realistic, but hoping top six. Avoid relegation is nr one. Good vibes in the Club so I Think we can be a Little bit optimistic. Always Believe. Coyr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thephat1 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Gone with 7th - 12th with some new faces feel this squad will do well next season, consolidate then build! Just one question though I see one person voted for relegation??? assuming we have a sag amongst us? or just the most pessimistic of city fans?

CiderHeadDan Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 For me I'd be happy for City to consolidate the first year and get a mid table finish. I think the key to next season is building on the infrastructures that we have now got in place. Obviously the squad will need some strengthening but this year could be a good year to improve other aspects of Bristol City, ala the academy.

RumRed Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I'd like to think that we'd be pushing for playoffs and use our team spirit and momentum to keep going, my only fear is that a few losses on the bounce would put a huge dent in the teams confidence. They are used to winning so three losses in a row may finish them. However I'm a pessimist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Red Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Someone's having banter with relegation surely! Personally think we will finish top 7..Obviously its right to be a bit cautious but i bet you the vast majority of Championship clubs will be expecting us to be a force next season, dont buy all this 'big' club 'small' club crap.. We have momentum which will worry many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon we will get off to a good start but will fall away towards the end of the season and end up mid table, which would be great for a first season in the Champ.Will go roundabout 13th/14th which if we do would be a solid if unspectacular return to the championship..would take it now to be honest,with hopefully a top half finish the following season.much,of course,depends on getting the right players-and importantly characters in....

richwwtk Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Who said relegated? That was me. I'm usually wildly optimistic (see last seasons predictions which, in the main, came true for a change), but yesterday this question caught me in a "go for the worst and you won't be disappointed" kind of mood. My more realistic guess for next season would be mid-table. Having no idea who we're going to recruit at the moment, fearing we may miss JET more than we might have thought and thinking that the rest of the division will remember what happened last time we came up and be a bit more ready for it this time. I'm worried now, am I turning into a pessimist? I've never been one before, feels weird.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
