Cuckoo!!

Blimey, we haven't touched a ball yet, we've lost Michael (probably), goodness knows who else might go, new players in that we know very little about and we're trying to predict how the season will go.

Well, even without Michael I trust in Ollie to give us one of our most successful seasons ever. But, being a cautious kinda bloke, I'll go no further than forecast a top 10 finish.

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

the usual groundhog season. might make a semi final similar to vieras first season.

Either that or we are flying till christmas and glasner goes to chelsea when they sack their manager. Then the wheels come off.

I admit it look like Olises's gone, after the Olympics and the Euros they'll sign on the dotted line, but so far nothing has been formalised - our best hope mihght be a loan deal for a year like we had with Zaha. If we can keep him and Eze for another year then 7th or even 6th might be feasible. But Ollie is undoubtedly planning for life without either of them, and we'll eventually have a more all round team then support players feeding a few stars. Eze is so much better with Olise but Kamada might help bring the best out of him too, we'll no doubt get one or two more shrewd buys and I reckon 8th is within our reach. In Ollie we trust.

Too many anomalies that can be thrown into the mix to even take a hopeful guess . Players in's and out's ,points deductions and the like .
My only predictions are that we will finish above Leicester and Southampton and below Arsenal and Man City . I also predict there will be no sign of hard hats in the Glaziers lounge

I predict we start well, the original poster of this thread thinks he’s Nostradamus, we then get a few injuries, lose a bunch of matches, people call for Glazner to be fired, and to bring back Roy, we then go on a winning streak to get to 44 points and 12th place. Parish is happy.

Oh wait, that’s been the last 11 seasons, more or less.
