    The club will aspire to go as high as it can and stay in the PL. Many will fail badly, some will fail not so badly, depends on the way the club is managed financially. I think the majority of fans would love to be seeing their side playing PL football. It'll be a hard watch sometimes, not others. A bit like golf, very frustrating most of the time except for that one cracking drive on the tenth, or the birdie on the third, it's what makes you keep coming back.
    But my other question was how do you get attractive football in the championship if there's no incentive to do well except for the odd cup run?

    Good luck on the course, if you have the time and funds, I highly recommend carrying on and doing your uefa B and then A. They are both tough and time consuming ( especially the A ) but I absolutely loved doing them and learnt a hell of a lot!

    That's my plan HT2. B is definitely going to be done next. My retirement plan is to sell my business in the next 5 years, or take a back seat, and get a job coaching with an academy or potentially even set up an academy. I will be 50 then so about the right age to work less and do something I enjoy. Thats the plan anyway.
    At least I know where to come if I need any help ha ha.

    To he fair if we get promoted then I would be the first to congratulate him and say that the Premier league is a free hit for him. If we get battered up there it wouldn't be his fault and more likely down to finance.
    However my prediction for what it's worth is we will finish 10th and way off the play offs. We have probably blown it already with silly dropped points but it doesn't stop me supporting the team and Rosenior. Lessons will be learned.

    It would be interesting to see how Acun and the team 'manage' a stint in the premier league. I'm not bothered about it myself.

    Not sure about that. Alex Ferguson would struggle to make a point on this forum. But it's fun and with football there isn't generally a right or wrong answer, it's about opinions, coaching styles, player ability etc. That's what makes it so exciting.

    That's a great plan, feel free to drop me a line when any questions you may have or you want another eye to look at anything! Are you doing it through the county fa?

    Yeah, play a lot of football on it too, I was sore for two weeks after the last practical module!!! First hour was just a 9 v 9 game with intervention from the FA coach assessors every 15 mins. I slid into right back and let the younger ones do the running!

    Not going to spend my day searching for it ta.
    You said it, you know you did. Then a bit later you backtracked a bit and ammended your view. Enjoy your new baby rather than spending half your life arguing for the sake of it on here.

    Just found it amusing given your carry on about being misinterpreted you've done the same to me. Not sure I backtracked anything. One follow up post six hours later isn't half my life, or I certainly hope not!
