22/23 Predictions ...

I don’t use the car park but many do, I won’t be able to see the TV screen nor do I care but it would seem the larger majority of supporters are looking forward to it and I never noticed anything wrong with my seat, however I don’t have any issue with year on year ground improvements whatever they may be, hopefully next year Bobby’s garden will have some treatment.
There has to be a balance and next May will inform us whether the 22/23 playing budget was the correct one.

Some of us would like to see year on year improvement to the finishing position in the league, if we finish mid table then next seasons ticket sales will be way down on this year, the playing budget will have to be cut and it will be seen for what it was a massive missed opportunity and loss of momentum.

I bought a ST for the first time, cause I was led to believe that we could be able to compete with bigger teams for signings and maybe spend some money, Unless he was burnt by the Cooper deal has put him off.

The Tv I'm not gonna be able to see, The seats look nice I guess.

I dunno if he said extra money is needed for the tv etc and for the squad I'd be ok with it.

Year on year improvement is what we all want, it’s not exclusive to a few.

As we finished 6th last season year on year improvement would mean the play-offs this season. Which is clearly not going to happen. So we all need to be ready for a step backwards.

Schuey making it clear that the squad needs to out perform the budget.

Normal service resumed.

"It was an overachievement because of financially where we were at," Schumacher told BBC South West.

Think we’re good enough for a mid table finish after flirting with the play offs top 7 for a while …don’t think and safe to say we won’t be struggling or in a relegation battle tbh …there’s team’s worse than us including our six toe friends from east Devon …there relying on there L2 squad from last season and finally made 2 signings this morning so nothing to worry about that end of the table for us as I said it could be worse just look at them

the first one I hope so 2nd one is absolutely nailed on dog shit

I detect a wave of optimism amongst the ATD ranks for the new season, excepting Freathers of course.

Well a couple of us are predicting unchanged position or a couple of lost places like I am which is not that optimistic but maybe we will be wrong, if it were that easy we'd all be millionaires Rodney.

So anybody like to change their view now? I am going to raise us a couple of places to playoffs but not reaching the final.

Nope.  Still think we'll finish outside of the play-offs, maybe 8th-10th.

i would like too given our fantastic start but unless we strengthen in January i still believe we will crash and burn as for winning promotion via first or second. Should make the playoffs though.

Where's the wave of positivity then? Seems only the neg heads are posting these days?
