Ok, so league is about to start.
Out the LC early, exciting inexperienced youngsters with potential, big injury list, unseen new signings, new manager, new tactics, old midfield issues, young talent sold off for millions, and new catering.
What’s your gut feeling. Be honest. Where will we finish.

I really do think we'll come good, and that the pace throughout the team will be key. Youan will in my view be pivotal to this, as will Henderson. Potential for good spine in the team with Marshall, Porto, kenneh and Youan.
I think it'll be a more competitive league but I'm going for 4th. Ggtth!

I’m going for 4th. I can see Celtic and Rangers flying ahead, Hearts comfortably securing 3rd and us scrapping it out with the other contenders for 4th, securing the place in the table with a game to spare.

8th/9th is about as kind as I can be currently.
Goalkeeper is about the only position I could say, with any authority, that we've improved upon.
The rest is just a lot of hope resting upon inexperienced youngsters.
More worrying is that we still haven't brought in the centre half, and central midfielder almost everyone agrees that we need.
That is unforgivable.Last edited by Chorley Hibee; 28-07-2022 at 04:49 PM.

I genuinely have no idea. This side, especially with so many injuries, is impossible to predict. So many unknowns

I think we'll finish somewhere between 7th-9th as things currently stand.
I don't share the optimism that I've seen from quite a lot of people on here recently.

7th or 8th, just don't have the quality available to finish higher.

There's no point us planning for the future if we can't succeed in the present. That future is dependent on the here and now, and failing to qualify for Europe, falling attendances/season tickets, and heaven forbid - relegation, results in our plans for the future being damaged/disbanded in turn.
That's why I'm annoyed at where we are now, the focus is too weighted on future success at the expense of now.
I worry what the consequences of that might be.

I think the split skewers things a little. Take away the split and simply finish 6th in the league and it doesn't look as good.

I think we will finish bottom 6 as the squad stands, not sure just how low though, but i'm worried about this team.

Right now would say 5th. I'm really hoping Cabraja and Youan can bring some quality to the team.
Midfield will need to be more consistent than last season and Henderson could be key with goals and assists.

I honestly have no idea.
We need the new players in the team and they need to make a difference. If we continue to rely on the same core of players as we did last season, we’ll continue to struggle. A lot is dependent on Cabraja and Youan IMO.

Hard to call right now but I went for 8th.
We're our typical shambles as we head into the competitive matches with a combination of work permit issues depriving players of competitive pre season matches, injuries and a recruitment policy that seems geared for success during a season that is certainly not this one all being to blame for that.
I can only see a fairly pitiful start to the season but I can also only really see it getting better as young players bed in, failing players get found out, the manager starts to get his ideas across, important players return from injury and we hopefully settle on a best XI.
It certainly wouldn't totally surprise me if it were to click nicely and we were to make a challenge for 3rd but it would surprise me less if we found ourselves in deep trouble and fighting to avoid relegation.
We're a couple of acts of misfortune away from disaster and this season (and the next few) might be defined by an ill timed departure of Porto. Centre half could very soon look absolutely desperate for us.
There are too many departments of the team that just look totally substandard compared to expectation.
I suspect the development team will be better to watch than the first team and as the season goes on they will evolve into our first team - hence the poor start and the strong finish to our season.Last edited by Smartie; 28-07-2022 at 05:46 PM.

Can see it playing out fairly similar to last season for the league as a whole. If the hype is to be believed then Aberdeen might give Hearts a bit of a run. The rest apart from St Johnstone and St Mirren imo will be much of a muchness.
I think we will have a few more ups and downs under Johnson rather than the early high to very long low last season. I’ll go for 7th. I’m almost certain the first couple of months are going to be very difficult for us but if the team could find their stride after that then we could maybe push for Europe. I think it’ll be fairly inconsistent throughout though.

8th on the back of being at the Falkirk game.
Top 6 would be amazing from what I've seen and watched.
Finishing ahead of Dundee United would be pleasing.
