hakka Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Not so sure now, given how we have performed and the signings we have made would hope we could push a little higher up the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gash Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Would be interesting if you could re-start the poll. I imagine a lot of peoples expectations/hopes are higher now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 It's too early to tell really but I've not seen much so far that is stopping us going for top half*. We're no great shakes but we're certainly no worse than the 12 non-good teams in this league, all of whom could probably finish anywhere. *That's not me 'expecting' it btw.

Dinho lad Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 probably yes. Don't see us getting a Europa League spot through PL, so guarranted safety is tempting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stephen927 Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 After the first 3 games, no I wouldn't. But it can all change quickly. Ask me in February. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 17th would be a disappointing season with the cogs that are currently in place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I mean if we stay up I guess it's job done for the year and I'd hope to push on from there but if you actually watch some of the utter rubbish in the bottom half of the league you wonder just how much of a mess it would take for us to go down. Pretty much everyone agrees we've strengthened this transfer window, we have a settled management team and have made a solid, confident start. Playing some good football too. Take a look at this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009%E2%80%9310_Premier_League#League_table Outside the top eight everyone is absolutely average as fuck. The other two teams that came up are no better than the ones that went down then either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Yeah. Obviously we all know how early it is, but sometimes when I take a look at a team at the beginning of season and at the end, it still surprises me how much can change. Good start and everything, and I think we can take 12-15, but all I want is to stay up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowen Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I'd be disappointed but still yes. If that makes sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir_9 Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 11th - 15th Yes. 17th No, because we have a squad capable of doing better than that now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Aye. Last season = 1st or 2nd. Doesn't matter. Promotion is the ultimate aim. This season = 17th or 10th. Doesn't matter. Survival is all that is required. So long as its not down to the last day. Fuck that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Not taking things for granted and reading too much into a really good start to the season, yes I would. Doesn't mean I want us to be aiming for 17th though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza ladra Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 No. Not after our performances against Villa and Wolves away. For me, Wolves are a decent side and we had them on their backheels at Molineux. We've got great team spirit and added to our squad two internationals from quality sides. On top of that, there really aren't that many quality sides in the Premiership. Even Villa and Everton--two of the better also rans-- haven't looked very good. Every couple of seasons there's a promoted club that exceeds expectations and does more than merely survive-- a Reading, or Birmingham. If any team is going to do it this season it's us. Player for player we match up pretty well against every side outside the top five so I think a top half finish is very much in the cards. /deluded rant Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottledDog Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Yes, that would mean staying up, and that is all that matters in our first season back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
