I just want to say please everyone don't freak out if we don't make the top half next season. Villa, Swansea, Norwich and Sunderland are all showing a lot of ambition as well and it's going to be tough no matter how much we spend. We can't simply buy our way up the table.

You can say it, but we both know what will happen if we're 14th after 7/8 games.

Don't think anyone will panic after 7/8 games...I would accept 14th if we were playing well. Although I appreciate we have an 'easier' start than last season. There would still be a lot of the season to go. Just don't want bottom three at all next season.

I think you underestimate the levels of incontinence in some of our fans Fran, we will be needing a few jumbo packs of nappies without a doubt.
 
Oh some will, for sure. If we don't get off to a good start I might stay away from here for a bit.

Or just seek refuge in Beefy's, that's my normal strategy after a loss.

If only one had the luxury. I'll admit to not being keen to monitor the forum while some throw themselves into animal traps or get the throat-cuts out.
 
I remember I joined last summer just at the start of Saint Gaston after long being a part-time lurker since the BBC606 days, during the transfer window I found this place to be a sanctuary of peace and love, then the season started and things descended into an asylum for the criminally insane at times.

... It's still pretty peaceful and lovely though... ;)
 
relegation battle is the most likely scenario......with anywhere between 14th and bottom is the sensible bet...
