    Somewhere between 5th and 7th probably though anything is possible.

    I`ve voted 6th but I think we could be anything from 4th to 10th . Last season there was no real difference between 4th and 10th and I think this season will be similar , maybe including 3rd since the Hearts squad doesn`t look anything special unless they sign 2 or 3 really outstanding players and I think that needs more than the few million they`ll get from Europe this season . I`m expecting us to be in bottom 4 when World Cup starts as new players settle in then to climb table in 2023 . This time next year , be looking for a strong top 3 for 23 / 24 .

    i'll go for 8th.

    We get no breaks with injuries ! Absolute decimated in the last year or so , So cruel and i don't think we have enough quality , Happy to be proven wrong

    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.
    That'll be 8th then.

    I can see us finishing 1st with all the new signings pace and loads of goals. I cant see anyone near us this season.

    The fact most of us are thinking we will struggle for the top 6 says it all. The board need to invest in quality man or it's going to be another season of despair. Shocking stuff.

    Can’t vote on my phone but I’d say 8th. Just cannot see this squad getting us top 6.

    Where we think we'll finish has no bearing on where we'll finish!

    If it was that easy, start a new poll and we can all vote 1st. Job done, we'll be Champs

    Haha probably clumsy wording on my part.

    I meant anywhere from 7th-9th.

    Optimistically 6th, pessimistically 11th.

    Says it all about who? The board or some of the support?

    Ron Gordon basically admitted it's going to be hard to catch hearts and Aberdeen who I think he's forgetting actually finished lower than us, we've shown zero ambition to actually challenge for european places despite knowing that can guarantee group stage football. Going into the start of the season with Rocky a starter and the same midfield as last season barring a young untried teenager in Kenneh Is shocking.

    So if he isn't confident of a third or even 4th place finish, and neither are we. Why not fix it before the season begins..really don't like the noises or the actions coming out the club just now. Reeks of mediocrity.

    So instead of happy clapping or sleepwalking our way into the season, we can voice concerns now, before the transfer window shuts and we are left with this. The signs are already there, we need to fix them.

    Regardless we aren't good enough as it stands to challenge for third and that's where Hibs should be. We've sold Doig for £3m and not spend a bolt. When he left I think we all expected a bit quality to come in. Weve just stayed exactly the same, and been put out one of the two cups we can win into the bargain.

    No idea. There's too many new players and a new manager to know. I hope we get off to a good start and avoid the toxic atmosphere that will inevitably arrive if we don't.

    10 players in for no money spent? Ron's son truly is a genius

    I mean of the Josh Doig money, we've brought in so much more than we've spent, when we really needed to make a statement this window, all we've done is bring in an ageing injury prone winger, who's now out for months, and a bunch of young unproven laddies. Not sure how that's giving us any faith it's going to be a succesful season, a couple of standout signings in key positions would make all the difference.

    Gone with seventh.

    We have a couple of difficult games early and that could hit confidence of both players and fans.

    The fans need to be patient and get behind the team to help overcome that

    No not regardless, you deliberately ignored what RG said to try and prove a point. At least try not to put boris Johnson levels of spin on it.

    Sorry I must have picked it up wrong, I should have known he would have been talking about money rather than the actual football side of things. Mine and many others thoughts are the same though and it's worrying so many of us think we are in for another bang average or unacceptable season, but I live in hope that we can add 2 or 3 signings That will take us up a level.

    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.
    Exactly where I am we will undoubtedly be better than part 2 of last season however difficult to tell exactly how much better. Think 5th with 4th being probably best we can get though think Hearts may struggle with European game impact on league form so may be tighter than people think outside top 2.

    We brought in a direct replacement for Doig. Carabaja who I think promises to be very good given his career thus far.

    6th. Think we'll be slightly better than last year, but squad is nowhere near good enough to challenge top 3.

    That’s as sound a response as I’ve ever had on this site 👍🏻

    I do have my concerns too, I’m not just happy clapping for the sake of it, agree with your point re signings - 2 or 3 additions would make me feel a lot more comfortable.

    I think we’ll get top 6, but that’s not enough imo. We really need to get in to Europe.

    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.
    3rd for me, no lower than 5th.

    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.
    There's that word unforgivable again , that cracks me up .
