Title: Promotion & relegations for the coming season.
Post by: Peter Venkman on Tuesday, July 19, 2016, 15:22:16
As discussed in the other thread...

Who are your tips for promotion/play off/relegation for L1 (and others) for this coming season and what will be Swindon final position?

Can this be pinned? Good topic but I would ideally like to wait a couple of weeks until making a prediction.

Reputations are at stake here :)

It's too early to consider how we might do.  As things stand a strike force of Hylton, Obika is far from ideal. So you'd expect to see at least one to come in here.

Go back to the Wilson PO season and we started off with Barn Door Billy up front....Wilson then made a couple of loans, Tope Obedeyi and Ben Hutchinson, to augment up front....Tope wasn't really a goalscorer and Ben just wasn't  :)

We had a decent defence marshalled by DV's dreamboat, so were hard to beat until Charlie Austin was plucked from Poole etc.

Billy needed a new contract, which helped him to 26 league goals in pursuit of a lucrative pay day.  Hopefully JO will realise that a decent season and he could well cash in.

I like this guy. Can we make him a moderator or something?

Blimey. You sure we're not relegated already based on what happened in 1956?

3-6 weeks too early for this.

 :hmmm:  Well there could be portents.

In 56 the country lost a Tory toff PM, as it plunged into crisis.

Back then, the Board picked the players and passed them on to the coach....no manager appointed.

Our 24th place finish and re-election followed.

I've in front of me a nice pristine Borough Press fixture list from 55/56, what was goodback then, it was Div 3 S.

Coventry and Walsall the furthest flung norvern outposts.

TLDR, so in summary we're nailed on for relegation and no-one should buy shares in the Suez Canal, right?
