I know we've had a great set of results and momentum is powerful. Am I being overly negative if i still believe top 10 would be a good season? What can we realistically expect from the season? |  | | |  |

Right now I’d be happy with top half. Having a team that can compete and is good to watch is enough for me. But if we’re top after 10 games….. |  | | |

I thought top 6 before the season started and I'm even more confident now.
I think we've not performed anywhere near our best yet | | | |

Strangely, i was more confident of seeing the game out at 1 0 than i was at times last season yet every team in the championship should have more threat than league 1 teams generally do. Perhaps we are going to see a more gritty town this season than the one we saw blow teams away last yr | | | |

No, you're not being negative. You're being sensible..Top ten would be a good return and put us in the "challengers" category. Perhaps allowing us to recruit more easily . And mount a serious challenge next season. Of course, anything higher than top ten is not off the table. And could still be achieved.
In the mean time, celebrate and enjoy these good times. Ignore anyone that says your getting carried away by thinking of promotion, if you are.
Good times don't come around that often. Dare to believe and dare to dream. As Town fans, we've earned it. And it's not being cocky. It's just being a football supporter. |  | | |

I think I said 6-10th. Something like that. In other words, aim for top two, be pleased with top six see top 10 as progress. I still think this, despite the great start.
However, I thought four points would be a reasonable return from those fixtures so to trouser nine? Over the moon. Yes the opposition will get stronger, but I’ve a feeling we will too. So pleased Chaplin scored. He’s key for us this season. |  | | |

We are now odds on with the bookies for a top 6 position. That suggests a top 6 finish is more likely than a below 6th position. Therefore its completely reasonable to be disappointed if we don't make top 6. | | | |

Disappointed because of a book run for the benefit of a bookmaker. So you set your own expectations by what bookies say rather than what those that watch regularly see and you actually think. Perhaps you no longer control your own brain. AI or ML taken over perhaps. | |

Around midtable with current squad is where I'd expect it to finish. Few quality additions could take us further. Of course we could continue this run in some form which would be incredible but it's not expected so just taking it as it comes really. |  |

We need new signings of quality to push us forward.
Top 10 isn't a disaster, but we're on a limited time frame with how long we can keep KM. For his own ambitions, he will want to mange higher and mid table finishes will not cut it. He. Will 100% be aiming higher, especially if we can get 2-3 players in. |  |

All this suggests is that more people are placing bets on ITFC to finish in the top 6. Therefore it’s reasonable to be disappointed if you’re one of the people who placed one of the bets before the odds shortened and we don’t make the top 6. |  | | |

I’m glad Ashton and McKenna are more ambitious than most on here!
100% they will be thinking top 6 especially after the start we’ve had. | | | |

You seem to be confused and/or do not understand how bookmakers set their odds. If you are suggesting the fans have a better grasp of a footballing outcome than the bookies I highly recommend you become a professional sports bettor, you will make a fortune. | | | |

Indeed, and when lots of different people make the same bet then the more it starts to align with the true odds. But if you guys think the odds are not correct the you should go and lay town finishing top 6 and you've got yourself a very profitable bet | | | |
