I went no, but have felt this to be the case since start of the season. The bulk of our squad just do not have the quality to be a top 6 side. Now of course we have lost a lot of players with long term injuries which makes it even more likely we will end in the bottom half.
I was a no, just feel we are too disjointed at the moment to put a run together. In addition without Famewo and Innis we look very vulnerable at the back and they both don’t appear to be returning any time soon.
I hope I am wrong but my November optimism has been crushed over the past few games
No seriously I can’t answer this question, because the transfer windows is still open, and I don’t know who we will be bringing in / letting go.
The squad has got to be improved if we are to make the play offs, I’m not sure there’s much silver left in the cupboard to be flogged off (not that it improves the cap) but if Williams or Maddison were moved on, I’d say we will struggle to make the playoffs (and I think even with them we’ll struggle to make them, we need a run of games with a fit squad to choose from, which has been our Achilles heel and undoing for years now.
current squad is better than the one that lost play offs to Shrewsbury but not quite as good as the one that beat Sunderland. Albeit hopefully this team won’t be operating with one proper fit striker from January onwards. Not a dig at Josh Parker. Not sure if that is a prediction that we lose in the PO final as I don’t think the division is as strong as it was 2 years ago
I've said yes on the basis we will get in a centre half better than Oshi & Pearce in this window.
This league is absolute pony, there is not a team anywhere close to Sheff W, Sheff U, Hudds, Portsmouth, Sunderland, Barnsley, Luton & Charlton from our previous promotions.
If Stockley & Schwarz click & we get in a CH, there's no reason we can't reach the play offs as the best team & the form team & grab promotion. The automatics aren't impossible in a league where you could win nearly every game.
I've said yes but I'm Rip Torn, But I've got to believe that with the additions Lee will fashion a more settled side that is more consistent, tighter at the back and starts to play with more enterprise and belief. More hopeful than convinced though.
From me which is weird in itself I’m rarely optimistic but feel players coming back from injury and a few additions, we’ll be more solid and hard to beat and should have enough firepower to turn draws into victory.

No more injury prone signings please!!
I think we will finish just outside the top six due to lack of fire power up front, a poor goal difference and inconsistency.

But yes we will get top 6 and I reckon if we get Iniss and Famewo back and starting consistently we will be promoted.
