http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/14381991.stm Earnie seems to be preparing us all for a slow start I guess most of us accept we may not fire on all cylinders for a while this season, but where should we be at Christmas? I guess I would be happy to be mid-table at the start of January; about 6-7 points of 6th place. I would love to think we may finish the season strongly this year and Malky will have some luck in the January window. We never seemed to do much in the January window! Though i am probably forgetting some great signings
If we're 8th and still in touch with the leading pack I'd be happy, anything less could spell a dismal end to the upcoming season.
My forecast has always been in the top ten around Xmas, invest and kick on in January, and squeak into the playoffs, as I said on another thread if fifth or sixth was on offer now I'd take it
