I can't be bothered to argue the toss on here though with people whose opinions are so intransigent. Why anyone thinks that anything other than promotion is failure is beyond me. Look at the money, the players and the talent that we had at our disposal to try and win the conference. Look at any number of big spending teams (and bear in mind that we are not one of them) at any level and you will see that building a winning football team takes time. We are starting from scratch, nothing, zilch - you can't just expect to turn out a championship winning side and stroll undeafted to the title. I am surpised and saddened that anyone thinks that way. If anything is going to put me off it is going to be some of the stuff that people shout at matches and post on here - not the players or the performances on the pitch.
At what level does mid table mediocrity become acceptable ?
This season has got a long way to go yet and if people can't take a couple of setbacks without announcing apocalypse on here at the first opportunity then ....well, I'm just glad they're not the ones steering the ship.
Everyone is entitled to there opiniiion on here. The reason I believe that some people think we should be looking for promotion in the first season (this includes me to a certain extent) is because we know many players in the UCL on a personal level and it is somewhat strange seeing your mates playing for or against us. I've played in the same Sunday team as some of our side in the past and it is really weird seeing them play for us on a Saturday. :lol:
At the end of the day I know the people making comments about being disappointed if dont get promotion this season will be back home and away next season, week in week out regardless of what happens!!
Some great comments...............let's be honest, we are not going to abandon OUR club just because we lost a game..............are we?
Wopuld Arsenal fans refuse to attend games just because they lost a game to Chelsea?.................NO and we need to take stock and look at ourselves...............we are in the UCL, not Div one, get real people, we will be what we will be..............Yes I would love it if we piss this tinpot league (a few will get that), but if we strengthen and move forward as a club, then I will take that as a positive too. This season, there are no negatives, only positives 8-) 8-) 8-)
