The great thing about live football is that you can have great moments whatever the level.
The Leeds playoff Semi Final win was as good or better in terms of the emotional event than most of the 90’s prem games, despite none of the footballers being at the same talent level.
I have had the Cox and Smith top flight years in my supporting life and they were great times. But there were exciting games in none too flight seasons too which I have enjoyed as much or more.
“That Season” in the PL where we went every week expecting to lose is something I could do without repeating. Last season in L1 was way better even if you don’t get to see Ronaldo.

The more I think of it, the more Nombe seems the perfect fit. Two players that don’t give defences a moment’s peace.
Add NML and perhaps a new wide player (Harris?) and I think we have a potentially aggressive, dynamic forward line.
 I would still like a midfield player that gets forward to pick up the scraps and score a few.

I’ve been assuming the “goal scoring” CF signing is just waiting for the Knight deal to be done to provide the funds.
Assuming this happens, I’m fine with CW.
Every chance he can get 10 goals based on past L1 record. Collins could get similar (like he did last season) so assuming we do get the main man in, say 18+ then that should be sufficient with a bit more contribution from elsewhere.
Our midfield should be able to do better than last year IMO.

Weird cos all four that have signed so far have all said the exact opposite.
Ridiculous statement. 
He'll attract players as he has done so far.
Window doesn't shut till the end of August.

So Ipswich decided to get rid and we've decided to get Ridd

Getting 30 goals out of two or three players as massively better than getting 25+ from. McGoldOne. 
Being reliant on one player like we did is just a huge gamble for no injuries, suspension, form loss.
So… Didzy may have done us a massive favour by going to Notts, if it results in us building a more balanced team…
Cheers McDick. 👏⚽️ But it was necessary to replace you with a spread of goals, even if none of the players will be your calibre..

Not getting to playoffs again would be utter failure. If we got there and fate conspired against us then there is not much you can do about that.
Must be aiming for top two though..

Don’t know why, this post made me giggle.
Thanks Mr D

Not surprised to see some absolute drivel on here tempered by posters with realistic expectations.
We don't know what squad we'll have, we're the bookies favourites (which means nothing), we are the biggest team in the league with the largest budget (which none of us actually know), all of which are spurious assertions yet from this we therefore must be winning the league......or Warne must get sacked. 
I'll go with Top 6 minimum.

Even the mearest suggestion that he may join us has upped his profile and got him a call up - the mighty Rams....

Quality prem loans are often done later in the window (after season starts frequently) as they may depend on the prem teams own transfer dealings. I think we probably keep a slot open for one or two of these, but don’t bank on it. IE A Brucey bonus..

Yeah
 

I think he will sign just a question ad when he does.

According to Google lens this is what the polish text on his IG story says… 

 
EDIT - with a bit more digging it seems he made an inappropriate comment in response to a fan’s comment on Instagram. The fan said something about Bielik having fun and Bielik responded by saying he’d had fun with the fan’s mother 🤦🏻‍♂️ 

Oxford have just been loaned an England u20 goalkeeper from Brighton. We have signed some steady League 1 players but 2 or 3 loans from the Prem could give us the edge. 

It should be possible to replace the goals, but not the class.
Sheffield Wednesday had Smith and Windass both in Teans of goals, but together more than McGoldOne.
Neither of those two (type of) strikers or equivalents are out of our range?
Anyway that’s the way to do it…

My thoughts exactly. It is possible to replace the goals through a combination of the likely change in play and the squad additions we have and will continue to make. I can see there being more goals shared across the team, the likelihood is McGoldrick was a one season treat for the fans, there aren’t many players out there (at this level) with his touch, vision, and for want of a better word… swagger(?). 
I’m glad we got to see him play and I expect we’ll see goals next season but more scored from range, from crosses, relying on some pace/power rather than McGoldricks touch and class.
