League Table Is Taking Shape

[Sohofox]

Bit of a gap opening up after the top three.
Looking promising.

 

[Thorney]

Yes it is taking shape and when this style/system of play clicks we will be hard to catch.
You wont need to paint the back door to match the front as with this damp autumn weather on its way its not a good time to do it anyway

 

[DagenhamFox]

A top three worries me as one will miss out. It often is a top three however.

 

[Nomadic Fox]

Can the others match our strength in depth? Rare the top sides in September are the same in April - look at Burnley last year.

Do you really expect Preston and Ipswich to last the course.

Neither will last until Christmas.

 

[Sohofox]

Not sure Ipswich will fade - they are on a fabulous run which started last season.

 

[peatlingfox]

6/4 to win it with Bet365. Bookies are impressed given that we are still in September.

With the caveat it was a different division. Strength in depth and injuries will be crucial.

It’s obvious Enzo’s vision is to play a ‘Man City’ like squad whereby nobody is guaranteed a place. 18 players used regularly. Ricky who has started every game didn’t play last night. It’s the strength in depth we have which is head and shoulders above anyone else. He’s less than 3 months in yet last night showed we are well ahead in respect of where he wants us to be. It’s not just the results but the how. It’ll only get better. Even Sutton loved us last night!

Not Preston, but expect Ipswich to be up there all season without any big injuries obviously.

correct. Most teams in this division have good key players but no equivalent replacement if they get injured.

 

[Adumass]

Preston have had a very favourable fixture list so far. On paper they won't have an easy October...

plus using plenty of subs.

l think Brum are a good outside bet for promotion.

 

[Wheezer]

Shanks said don't look at the table before Christmas. Hard not to when we're up there, though.

 

[DagenhamFox]

Especially in this league.

 

[Club_B00k_Crutchless]

Too early for me to start thinking about it.

He’s got other things to plan and prepare for.

Watch out for news appearing late on Saturday night that Dave Rennie is missing ... Soho will have him locked in a room at Seagrave making him an offer he can’t refuse.

EM's never made any secret of saying you need 20 players to play his way. He repeated that to the Athletic just the other day.

Preston have a long history of blowing good starts / positions in this div, right back to Moyes' days.

And this year they'll probably blame it on us buying ol' broken back.....

Ipswich have always been out bogie side

Not sure Ipswich will fade - they are on a fabulous run which started last season.

 

[shropie_blue]

Already some 14 points difference between Leicester (first) and C*v (nineteenth) and we've only played eight games.

Long may that last.

 

[mac]

Ipswich have always been out bogie side

v Ipswich Town​

Games won:	26
Games drawn:	17
Games lost:	27

 

[blackthorn8]

Never excited by positions this early there's a long was to go ........just keep winning as many as possible dreamtime is April

 

[Sohofox]

Yes but I reckon its about time for me to tear up my relegation betting slip.

Mind the gap

As me old Dad use to say “A fool and his money are soon parted”

 

[shanetko]

Leeds are the biggest danger still - good that we’ve built such a handy lead early on. Ipswich and PNE (especially latter) feel like somewhat false positions. See what happens when form starts to falter or injuries start to kick in, they don’t have our depth.

 

[glynnak]

I cant believe that we are only top on goal difference. If we and Ipswich were to maintain that points per game average it would be 121 points for the season!
