    Will people still delude themselves that we have a chance of automatic promotion?

    Feel free to bump in May.

    We could. But even as a natural pessimist (not as much as you, granted), we could also go back up to 6th, 5 points off 2nd with a game in hand. We were much improved last game against the champions elect, theyre a good team Blackpool but there's no reason we can't win today.

    This time 3 years ago we were 21st in the table. I wonder what happened then?

    Didn’t even need to look at the poster to see who posted this thread. Says it all really.

    Probably too far out of our reach. Would then just support the team to hopefully get in and win the playoffs. Who knows what may happen, it’s a funny old game. Get great enjoyment from it and thoroughly enjoying this season despite the erratic form. The lows make the highs even better and think we have the right Management team and a young and talented squad who with a couple of transfer windows will be a very good team. Provided the investment and willingness to build is provided from the owners. I have no reason to doubt it, so will remain optimistic until I know otherwise.

    Merry Christmas James. Have a good one.

    Actually maybe we should change Conan’s username to Cassandra. It would fit quite well :)

    I know we're not where we'd all like to be in table but it's a marathon not a sprint as WE'VE proved before !
