    "Realistic Aspirations" would be a top half finish since that's the upper end of what's realistic.
    A battle against relegation should be a pessimistic outlook, whilst a top 6 finish would be very unlikely. Anything in between is reasonable. Only 8 points seperated 9th and 18th last season.

    Think I would prefer to see if Brown could make the step up. If we signed TJJ we would have to sign another reliable player for the same squad place so would block out Brown so we would have to loan him.. then regret it straight away when injuries bite.

    Dean (hick) Saunders reacted to DiggerB in Tyreece John-Jules   
    We did that last year and all he proved was that sadly, he couldn’t manage it! Agreed, he is an undoubted talent but he’s played the equivalent of 22 full matches in the last 3 seasons, and just 377 minutes for us before breaking down again. At 23, and with the athletic demands likely expected by PW I can’t see it being a smart signing, whatever the deal.

    "I went out to DC to experience something a little bit different, improve and develop, and I found my way here to Argyle and I feel I am the best shape I can be in."
    'Round' is a shape.

    If he decides to follow the “I don’t care what your abilities are, you are going to pass it out the back like Man City” approach then they are 4orked.

    You have to make assumptions on recruitment to be able to set expectations in reality.
    In worst assumption no doubt a relegation battle, but it is not unreasonable to expect an outside playoff interest if things go really well in recruitment. Look at when the tree humpers got promoted, they went from relegation battlers to playoff winners, to a large extent on the back off a few top quality loans and a decent manager who got the best of what he had.

    When he says it feels great to be here, I can't help but wonder whether he's actually noticed where he is?

    How could any of the answers in this thread be more than hope? We are missing around 7-8 first-team players at the moment and I haven't got a clue who is available, never mind we are being able to sign.

    The bookies’ odds seem to reflect that we will finish midtable - along with Portsmouth. 
    Bristol City, Derby, Millwall, Portsmouth, QPR & Swansea all priced at 33/1 on B365.
    Blackburn, Preston, Cardiff & Wednesday all priced at 40/1. 
    Plymouth (66/1) and Oxford (100/1) cut away from the rest.
