    Mine is for S.A.F.C. to win more games than our neighbours do . . . . we'll be alright if we do that, I think :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Apart from that I'd really like 'Boro to be back where they belong after just one season, so that their fans/arseholes only get one chance to throw allsorts of rubbish at us when they sit above us at The Stadium . . . . the dirty bastards :emoticon-0114-dull:

    Whoever decided to site the 'away' fans there, where we can't even see them never mind have any banter with them, should be, literally, shot with **** . . . . the stupid twat(s) <grr>

    First target for me is to actually take some points from the first 5 games and not to be playing catch-up, right from the very start.

    To have 40 points come the start of March.

    Smack a Boro fan.

    4-6 signings of similar quality to KKK.
    A sensible pre-season, not too much travelling with an emphasis on fitness.
    100% effort from first ball kicked in August to final whistle in May.
    Safe by March.
    50+ points by seasons end.




    Sneak into Europe. (Shhh. Not too loud.)

    Be safe with a few games to go.
    Watch the same levels of performance that we have seen the last few games of the season.
    Have a couple of good cup runs, might even have a silly bet on us this year?
    Take the pi55 out of that team sitting one division lower than us.
    Finish above boro and hull if they get promoted.

    A minimum of 4 quality players coming into the team, get rid of all the dross we've inherited over the last 4 or 5 seasons and hopefully finish above half way, i'd settle for 12th up over.

    I'd be ****ing ecstatic if we start the season the way we have played the last half dozen games, willing and able to compete.

    A good pre season preparation. (Last year was a shambles).
    A good start. (Last year was a shambles).
    No bad publicity. (Last year was a shambles).

    ffs if we`d been relegated we`d have had the full set.

    A bit more :1980_boogie_down: and a lot less <wah> please.

    47-50 points would be an absolute god-send. If we get that we'll end up around 10th-12th.

    Personally I'd be happy with anywhere from 15th upwards.

    Lower mid table without having relegation worries and a cup run would be nice and like 83 sugested some points in august would be nice for a change.

    I would want all of Sam's signings, 4 or so, to be immediate first team players that will have starting places in our first 11.

    I don't want squad players bought to bulk up the squad.

    3 more like the KKK rather than 6 like Toivonen or N'Doye.

    Tel, do Man U have any players to go out on loan of a similar quality to 2 you loaned us before, Welbeck and Evans. Any you think may suit us.

    Depends who's in charge mate, LVG doesn't like Sam so there'll be nowt happening if he stays, hopefully that won't be the case though.

    We've got loads of youngsters coming through and I've a feeling Memphis might be loaned out for a season as well.

    LVG told Januzaj to go to Sunderland last season to play under Advocaat, he chose Dortmund instead.

    So you're wrong. <ok>

    No I thought about going after we secured safety so had nothing to play for but was 40 quid a ticket and 30 something to get thier and i didn't want to pay that much to be honest. So just watched it down the local pub which was canny, am chuffed for them, they deserve to be in the football league for thier fans.

    We beat you for that, then drew a line under it, we don't hold grudges.

    It makes no sense for us to burn bridges, you never know when you'll need to cross them.

    Would like us to win as many games as we lose. If we achieve that we should be comfortable mid-table.

    To beat the promoted teams. We're usually not very good at that. ( w 1 d2 l3 this year I think). When we were up and down, when we were the new boys, even mid table prem teams always seemed to contain us, step up a gear , pop the ball in the net and say to us ''well played, but we have prem experience and we will have all the points''
