    Of course, although it's a lot more dependant on how quickly Grigg settles than it is on those two who are peripheral figures. Hell we can still win the league.

    Even if they don’t a top 2 is possible. I have no expectations of Watmore this season. 2 years out and just finding his feet again. Not sure why you’re pinning it on them rather than the squad as a whole

    Achievable if they don't. We're right in the mix and we haven't been that good. Only a marginal improvement needed.

    Based on comments Ross made the other day, we'll only be playing one of Grigg, Sterling, and Wyke at a time. Wyke has to be third choice from that lot. I don't think he'll play much of a role and we'll go up.

    Watmore is a great option as a counter attacker, coming off the bench, if we need to see a game out or snatch a winner, if i am reading JR correctly this is the way I see him being used for now, he is a great option and a great asset to have at your disposal and it would also be perfect for his recovery, as he will be needed next season more than this if we do go up.

    We should be top two at the end. A play-off at Wembley would be a hell of an occasion, but I am not sure I could take the tension or a third defeat!

    Personally think we will go up as champions quite comfortably.
