Away to Plymouth on 3rd May, 3pm kick off
All 12-30 KO's last season weren't they ?
Bloody awful as well.

I think we'll get first but like last year I'm apprehensive of what the following season might look like.
All 3 who went up last year have a good chance of coming straight back down.
I hope we have a big suitcase under the bed, stuffed full of money and that we are prepared to spend it otherwise we'll be just like the 3 this year.
Agree there Bob, I’m hoping the decision not to strengthen in Jan was confidence in promotion and down to saving money for a push in the summer when we have a better chance of getting the right players. Still have a sneaky feeling we’ll be left disappointed come the first day of the season though.

It doesn’t matter though does it as surely being promoted is the target ?

Which one of our negative fans has got us down to finish 3rd?
Come on, own up.

Mere icing on the cake and pretty meaningless compared to the real prize of promotion.
In fact does anyone even remember how many times we’ve won the Championship or old 2nd Division ?

Going for runners up, anything else is just cherry's on top.

2nd would be a part failure for me. Being happy with second is like being happy with FA cup runner up

Personally think 1st is a fine target.
Got to show something to show he deserves a chance in the Premier League.
Runners up to Scott Parker, Chris Wilder or a Championship novice with more backing than any of them isn't it

But hang on - you told us we wouldn't get promoted if we didn't sign anyone. I trust I'll see your vote in the "7th or lower" category.

Oh, so all that other dreary negative b*llocks you spouted endlessly was just nonsense then was it?
Sack the board
Sack the manager
We won't get promoted if we don't sign XYZ
Don't let me hear you moaning again if you're then going to back us going up, it's the complete opposite of what you've been stating as fact for weeks.
