On the eve of the first game it’d be interesting to see how people think the season will go.
So two questions:
1) where do you expect us to finish?
2) where do you think we finish?
For me it’s 3rd for the first, but actually think we could be anywhere in the top three depending on how other sides do.

An improvement upon last season is not to much to ask for..... |  | | |

Yep, hence the two questions. Some may have different answers to the two but at least we’ll have an idea of what fans think “par” is. | |

Fighting for number one, achieving playoffs, giving a better account of ourselves in the playoffs than last season. That’s hopes and expectation. |  |

Expect us to finish 3rd.
I think we'll finish 4th but have a feeling we will be in the play off final at Wembley and will win them against FGR. |  | | |

where we will finish will depend on Southend and Carlisle. |  | | |

Bizarre when you look at last season that I regard it as a disappointing season.
I would like us to win something. Apart from the Lancs Senior Cup and the occasional Rose Bowl we haven't left our mark on any major competition.
Play-offs too hopefully, but we should have enough about us to challenge for top spot. | |

An improvement on last season, both on the pitch and off the pitch. If key players can stay fit then hopefully we will finish top three. |  | | |

4th on both questions. I don't see us going on the long winning runs required to be higher. |  | | |

We have a much stronger side all round this season.....but so have many other clubs. Our improvements in squad depth and better players are well documented on here. McNulty's epiphany of "getting 3 players better than you had last season" looks to make us a good bet to be up there in May.
Will he adapt to using these assets to full effect?
Pressure is on him but I think we are in for a good season.
Enjoy the ride.

Expectations will be top 4 with a play off final.
Personally I think that we could be runners up probably to York. Not convinced that Carlisle or FGR will sustain a challenge for the title. With our squad we should get 10-12 points more than last season when we threw quite a few points away.
The big question is how will BJ use the resources at his disposal and make the right tactical calls to kick on especially against the other promotion candidates. | | | |

Congrats TS
You got it spot on, under the rule that the season is decided after the first game. |  |

where we will finish will depend on Southend and Carlisle. |
And every other team in the league, surely. | | | |

So we start with an encouraging result, a confident goalscorer and a playoff place
My expectation is we stay in the playoffs, and demonstrate improved game management to give us a better chance of a successful outcome at the sharp end of the season
Looking back, what happened wasn't a surprise, but looking forward to clouting a few teams |  |

Thanks, it was never in doubt😄 | | | |

great start, except for the booking which will lead eventually to suspensions. a lot will also depend on how many times offside decisions go against us. last year that probably cost us 9-12 points.
Also, didn't B'Wood have a good result yesterday- one for the play-offs!  | | | |

Well if we are ever to get back into the football league we are going to have to do what no Rochdale team has ever done before. Win the league title or win the Wembley play off final.
No pressure Jim! |  |
