I know there’s still a couple of weeks to go but it doesn’t feel much different to last season looking at that team sheet.
A passable first XI but woefully short on the bench especially with regards to game changers.

We are miles short, again. We need 4/5 players still. |

Just me then who thinks that bench plus Delaney and McGurk is fairly decent? I'm expecting Mitchell to be decent too, rightly or wrongly

Well, you have Khan and Cain who are reasonably experienced players but in the same position. Decent start though.
You then have a bunch of players who haven't reached 5 pro appearances, plus Minturn and Uwakwe.
There are also no attacking players of any sort on the bench, youths or otherwise.

I think we need at least 1 more keeper, a midfielder and a striker TBF to make it a decent bench, thats keeping all the others fit too which is always a concern. I would be happier with A Keeper, Johnson, Delaney, Minturn, Khan, Cain, McGurk, A striker and A midfielder to choose from, as well as the youngsters. McGurk and Uwakwe currently seem constantly injured or not picked too. Not sure Khan or Cain will still be here come start of the season though as neither seem to be in Kennedys starting plans it seems. |

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

You’d say that’s probably our strongest 11 on paper at the moment.
I would not say that. 1-0 down already. |

That team sheet is way way way short of what we’d need to be competitive at the top end of the league consistently over a whole season (not just 2 months until people get injured and suspended).

I'm pretty sure Drinan, Glatzel and Smith won't all start the first league game
