    Hmmmm......because I support qpr?

    Hope i'm wrong, but let's be honest, the future looks bleak.

    Can't see any reason to be excited about the coming season

    Not gonna be a happy clapper, previous experience has bludgeoned any optimism out of me.

    No idea how it’s all going to pan out overall but it doesn’t look great.
    However that foolish optimism still kicks in and has me thinking we will survive the pessimism.
    So far we’ve only lost Seny and brought in a short term experienced keeper for this division.
    Remains to be seen what else happens in the next few weeks to derail that foolish optimism.

    I'm not particularly looking forwards to this coming season, I think we will be crap, probably crapper than last season. Will go to the usual away games to support unless it just ends up being hoof ball and then I shall spend my money more wisely.

    I've decided to try and buy into GA's optimism and his belief he can build a genuine togetherness and spirit in this squad.

    Realistically we should be in the relegation scrap, and anything higher than last season would be pretty remarkable. But I'm going with blind hope.

    think a massive factor for us could be who we get in on loan

    I am 100% sure we will be relegated, anything more will be like winning the league.

    If we are talking about players being ‘developed’ I’m sure clubs will ask what type of football will be played and does it suit the potential loanee.

    And vice versa. Does Gareth want a silky skilled ball playing youngster on loan from City (as if?). Or some bloke on a legacy contract who can mix it up a bit, but is unlikely to get a kick at his home club?

    Is there any truth in the rumour that GA is trying to get our CB Chris Forino?

    Lots of rumours but nothing happening yet, allegedly we made contact with Wycombe, what’s he like?

    I think he started off in our Development squad but when he made his first league appearance for us he played well by all accounts. He has been playing regularly for us and is highly thought of. Still only 23, 6ft 3" No 5. Very handy for latching on to corners, free kicks. Personally he would be missed if he goes. Judging by our signings, it looks as though he is expected to go but I hope not

    I really don’t think I’ve ever known such a lack of expectations for a new season.

    GA needs to get the talents we have in the team, the Chairs, Willocks and Dykes, to overperform and not underperform as in last season.

    And our defence needs to remember the game starts at the first whistle and not 8 minutes in.

    Then we can win the relegation battle coming...

    I was nearly as downbeat before last season. Poor end to previous season, unknown fat bloke in charge.
    This didn't improve after the opener where we had no shots on target nor corners.

    The first few games concern me as much as the team. Managers need early momentum and with the run of away games I can see GA under pressure before the end August.

    With all the Doom and gloom and low expectations we will probably win the league
