Luton Coventry Mansfield ------------------ Chesterfield Swindon Exeter Lincoln
Swindon beat Chesterfield at Wembley this time around.
Morecambe and Newport for the drop.

I have no faith in us winning at Wembley. Even if it was Swindon v Swindon!

Fair point. I think that would create a singularity.

No idea.
One of the good things about Div 4, is that it's reasonably open... even the big hitters like Mansfield, FGR, Luton and Lincoln, aren't that big.
Further, there's usually a couple of crisis clubs.
Back at season's end had Power persisted with the model operating in its haphazard way, then I think we'd be looking a Conference candidate. Happily, that's been binned... with a return to an old skool gaffer. However, the infrastructure of the club is still Div 4/ upper Conference level, so Flitcroft will be doing well to achieve anything other than respectablity with his collection of journeymen.

Serious question - what are people basing these predictions on, have you all been studying the form of the other teams in pre-season or picking through their signings?
Hell we have been signing players I have never heard of and any knowledge on their ability is gained via Wiki, I wouldn't have a clue how anyone elses summers are lining up.
Gut feeling - we should do OK?

I understand the signings bit, but as we have no clue what our own budget is how does any fan know what other teams budgets are?
