Zero chance of top 2. We aren't good enough for top 2, that's clear. This team will be exposed against the leagues better sides. Ive said the defence is the problem from day one. It's not good enough. We conceed too many goals against good sides and don't win enough against top 6 sides.
Against the top 3 sides so far this season (plymouth, Ipswich, sheff wed) we have got 2 points from a possible 9, with 8 goals conceeded in those 3 games. That's bad.
Unfortunately this team is not good enough for automatic promotion and can't beat really good sides.
At least expectations have been adjusted after the last two games. We know what this team can do and can't do.
Playoffs is now the aim, and is very achievable. Unfortunately even if or when we make the playoffs, this team just isn't good enough in big games and will be exposed against very good sides. Its not kneejerk, the evidence shows this.
My prediction for this season:
A top 6 finish. Followed by the usual semi final playoff defeat. Another season in this dreadful league. Are we ever going to make it back to the Championship?
