Two really tough games coming up, too many injuries and no loan signings. A long long way to go but what is your gut feeling right now. I'm still quite optimistic but obviously injury to Ulloa or Kuz would throw everything into doubt, but taking into account your positive or negative feelings at the moment what do you expect rather than hope for as things stand?

Gut feeling is 7th, but could be anywhere between 3rd and 12th. I've given up predicting though, as this division is so refreshingly unpredictable.

I am not as I think as it stands we will finish between 7th and 10th but all can change with a couple of good results. I do feel however, that Oscar is on the right lines and we will become a very good side but whether or not it will be too late for this season I am not sure.

My gut feeling is that we will finish in the top ten but miss out on the play offs.
The key will be to stay in touch with the top six by the time Christmas comes around. If we can do that then along with the return of CMS, Orlandi and Bridcutt I would be a lot more confident of reaching the play offs.

Everything in football is over-determined. There are so few effects -- promotion, playoffs, relegation -- and way too many causes.

Almost anything could happen. Go back far enough, and you'll find examples of it happening.

This team could finish 16th or 2nd or any place in between.

That's what makes it interesting.

I'm saying top 6 but it's such a tough tight league this season, even more so than last season, and I think injuries could be key frankly.

This. I reckon somewhere between 5th-9th, a team with Kusz, Bridcutt and Ulloa in shouldn't be finishing any lower than 9th.

I think we'll do OK this season, but I don't think we'll do quite as well as last season - that might have been our best chance.

Top 6. Better squad than last year, but injuries making it tough.

Outside the top 6 but inside the top 10 and you know what ? I'd be happy with that.
