don't think anyone on here thought that we'd hit the ground running. We are in a transition period. It will take a couple of months for this team to get up to speed, but I have faith in our coaching staff to bring out the potential of these young lads. hold your nerve ... reign in the 'I hope they lose by 10' comments ... it is going to be a rough ride for a while. don't forget that all the star players we've sold were gash this time 2 years ago. Our coaching staff took their potential and created a good team. They'll do it again.
I don't hope they lose by 10 at all I hope the board see the glaring weaknesses and back the manager at last
It was a shocking start. Which probably knocked any confidence out of them. We have to hope Lindsey and Pearson can improve the defence quickly (unless we sign the replacement for Robbos experience). A couple of striker and a couple of championship wingers will help. We lost the opening game of last year by 2. It doesn't mean season over. But there is much much more work to do with this squad than last year.

silk purse/sows ear..... not this time matey.[/QUOTE] If you can be bothered (I can't) look back at threads 2 years ago regarding CH. most thought he would be playing non league by now. All of these lads have potential. some will go on to better/higher things, some will not make it, and some will have found their level. You have a short memory if you don't think these players have the same amount of potential as CH Roberts Yaidom Watkins Scowen et al These lads are all cut from the same cloth ... time will tell how things pan out ... but it will get better.
Well said Cambridge red. I do seem to remember the ons and groans from two years ago and then look what happened. Can't imagine the players or staff are just gonna lie down and take a negative approach It's about fighting and working hard
Just hope we don't have Castleford Alan and others phoning Praise or Grumble tonight to pull the team to bits. That's the last thing we need right now. We are a new team playing away from home. Lost our first game against Ipswich away last season. These things happen. Onwards and upwards COYR.

No complaints on Radio Dee Dah yet.! Hope it stays that way Reds fans. Don't let's wash our dirty linen in public. Hecky will know how to put it right and we might now get the strikers in we need, sooner rather than later. Quite a few Wendies phoning in saying that "Meerkat" Carlos should be sacked.!
we are in a transitional period every chuffing year ,thats how it is when you've one of the lowest budgets in the league...on a bright note,if we continue to be w@nk then nobody will raid our chest in january ;-)
Most teams want instant success, barring a few mindless fools on here, I think we're a pretty patient support base. Could take 10 games for a system to work, and get some form. It's a very long season.
