Bin VAR!
Don’t think Southampton are any better than when they went down. Look where we are compared to our first year or even last year. Couple more additions + couple of decent loans and we’ll be mid table.

The hope would be that we could start to push up the table but 17th place and safety would be another successful season for me

If Leicester don't come racing out of the blocks I can see Cooper being put under too much pressure. It would be good to see them implode early on!

The three sides coming up this year are collectively better than the three that came up the season prior who promptly conspired to keep us in this league.
Happily would take 17th again. We still have a lot of amortisation to pay off, the single most important thing for the long term of the club is to pay that off through BAU revenue rather than player sales, and that can be achieved by finishing, at worst, 17th. That's the target for the next 2 years, anything else is a bonus.

do you think the greek overlord would be happy with 17th position for the next 2 years ?

No of course he wouldn't but apart from sacking manager's there is jack shit he can do about it should it happen.
I personally don't think it will be an issue this year though

Question is will it be closer to 3 or 9 points? Would be dreaming with 7 but gladly take a 5.

Will Leicester actually get a points deduction?
I predict they won’t. Hope I’m wrong.

Minimum 5 for me, which would be a more than decent start

Why do you think they won't? They are going to a panel with the exact same charge that us & Everton were charged with (with bigger losses than both I believe).
And that's the one we know about, there are rumours them & Chelsea have failed the current PSR cycle too.

Bob McKinlay
You are right, when we have the promotion year out of the accounts we can realistically expect to push on at that point, anything else is a bonus as you say.
Chelsea will just sell themselves Water Works and Marylebone Station again, to blag their way out of it.

Viv Anderson
Because the Man City charges are coming to a head, Chelsea will theoretically be in danger too, and I can see a fudge happening

I've got a five pack of those in the cupboard so for me it's a very real possibility

Which teams do you think our squad is better than?

Bob McKinlay
Doubt it. Nuno almost certainly wouldn't survive in that scenario but the club would be in a sound place regardless and that's the important thing.

I hope not
Vicious circle. Teams that finish 17th get their best players targeted. Or those players push to leave. Surviving off BAU revenue streams simply isn’t a viable business model for us.

Goals? Loads needed. Where are they coming from?
Incoming? No PVH type, no can see.

Something like this. And a new manager ( obviously).
Want to look on the bright side, but the First Division is a cruel mistress

Hoping for 45+ points this time around.
Heck, that's only keeping the lead in 3 out of the 7 or so games which we lost 3-2.

He'd take it, though. Finishing 17th just delays the march up the table by a year (or two).

Like for all football supporters, pre-season brings a heightened expectation for the coming campaign to us. Really don't expect a relegation battle this year though.

56 points and finish 9 to 12th.
Leicester get away with FFP because of Man City and Chelsea are "innocent' according to PL and they employed better lawyers, until Everton and EM lodge a formal discrimination complaint and go to court. Then EM drives a super taker up Richard Masters' arse (no lube) and theynare subsequently docked 150 points. Bottomed 3 (in more ways than one) have been identified.
