Re: 2024/25 Season predictions
Just playing devil's advocate here, but wouldn't it be better to have 'player of the season' (as voted for by the fans)?. A 'best' & 'worst' new signing is open to interpretation and can not easily be 'awarded' to any individual. I do like Andy's suggestion of first manager sacked because that will definitely happen at some point.
Just my thoughts and not meant to take away from a great 'just for fun' post which will be worth looking back on at the end of the season.

My goal was just to get peoples personal predictions, not collective. I.e it'll be the player YOU think is the best/worst.AzzurroMark wrote: ↑Sat Aug 03, 2024 5:14 amJust playing devil's advocate here, but wouldn't it be better to have 'player of the season' (as voted for by the fans)?.

Re: 2024/25 Season predictions
Fair shout and l guess it will certainly open up more discussion come the season's end , as unless an individual has particularly stood out, views will certainly differ. Personally I think (hope) that Greaves is going to be a huge acquisition for us at both ends of the pitch, and on my viewing of him against Fortuna alone I can see him being voted player of the season if he continues developing to the KM way of playing.shabba wrote: ↑Mon Aug 05, 2024 9:03 amMy goal was just to get peoples personal predictions, not collective.

Towns finishing position: 14th
Best summer signing: Kieran McKenna, does it have to be a player. If not haven't really had chance to check out all new signings. As with the below they just haven't properly featured as yet.
Worst summer signing: Hard to pass judgment, they haven't been properly involved yet or been provided any real chance.
Best exisitng player: Sammy Morsy, perhaps Chaplin or even Hutchison. Walton used to provide hope and be reliable but just hasn't had the opportunity since taking back seat to Hladky. Walton remains with us and now will get his chance, through respect felt in necessary to include the player.
Title winner: Liverpool, it were real painful to admit it but got to be truthful in that they'll be a threat for sure and could go all the way.
Relegated clubs: Wolverhampton, Crystal Palace, either Bournemouth or Leicester.
Top 4: LIverpoool, Manchester C, Arsenal, Tottenham
Over-achivers: Aston Villa
Under-performers: Chelsea, without doubt they're a poor team right now and can expect to achieve little.

I reckon Liam has been getting extra motivation from this post lol. Looking like a bargain on his performances so far, albeit a long way to go.

Lol! I was one of them. So happy he’s proved me wrong. He’s an ox, and my word he can run! He’s quickly becoming my favourite player.

Re: 2024/25 Season predictions
Yep this thread hasn't aged well
Delap has really suprised me. Oddly you'd have to say Ben Johnson is the worst signing so far, not that he has been terrible
