Paul D - a bit of a challenge for you

Re: Who cares. We're 15 points clear of the bottom 3 and 6 points behind Leeds

Leeds have no manager judge season after 46 games.

 

Re: Who cares. We're 15 points clear of the bottom 3.

You and HT are quite alike you know. You both have your views and aren't going to shift 'em regardless of the evidence. You don't think Hill's as good as other fowk. Fine. But to say that it's an equal achievement as we've quite clearly cut our wage bill and spent less money on transfers is a bit strange.

Reckon that's why there's so much sexual tension when you chat on here.

 

it is nottinghams squad in bottom 3 wtf.
its tough this season. really tough.

it should start getting easier. break even within a time frame.

bristol/ nottingham/ doncaster could find it harder and harder. im not sure about others.

 

Re: Who cares. We're 15 points clear of the bottom 3.

I think it's been the club's ambition ever since we came up which has been why we've completely given up and played out draws for the second half of every season since we came up and why Don Rowing has spoke of relegation numerous times and slashed the budget when we achieved a decent place in the table.

More importantly though (and what I was getting at) I think that it is the ambition and hopes for a lot of our fans, they seem to be happy with simply surviving and that is good enough for them year after year. Me? I want to see us get promoted, I'm not EXPECTING it but it is what I want. My aims change throughout the season. If we get 15 points clear of relegation then I don't even look at relegation anymore, it shouldn't be our aim this season at all because our aims should have changed. Our aim should be top half because that is what is really possible for us this year. I think that when you get 15 points clear of relation but you still talk about relegation and bang on about how we can afford to drop 15 points then it is a completely negative defeatest attitude to take which will ultimately one day cost the club big time.

ps I'm not getting at you Dyson.

I want us to win the Champions League within 4 years. I don't expect it though.

 

Re: Who cares. We're 15 points clear of the bottom 3.

Fair points.

But there still needs to be an element of realism to your targets.

If we only just stop up after getting to 39 points with 15/20 games left I'd be really disappointed. But then after thinking about it we'd have exceeded my pre-season expectations.

 

Re: Who cares. We're 15 points clear of the bottom 3.

Anybody who still thinks that a similar final position/points tally to last year isnt progress, is clearly not taking anything but results into consideration.
There are those who think with Mark Robins' budget, Keith would have us in the playoffs.
There are some who believe that Mark Robins would have us safe again on Keith's budget - shame Mark didnt agree...
The target is playoffs by the way - Keith said so the other week.
But the least we expect, as fans and a club, is survival.
Mid-table will do for me.
Stage one, and I will keep repeating that.
Stage one
