We’re Going Up

Mark my words…
Options galore and the management appears to have the competence required to get the best out of them.
I’m not normally a natural optimist but does anyone have the same feeling?

 

Love your optimism, and hope beyond hope that you’re right, but I’ll wait a little longer before forecasting where we’ll finish.

 

I think we'll be up there.

 

I think we have a lot stronger squad than last season and a better coaching team but I think it's a stronger league. My advice wait till Christmas if it all clicks we won't be far away.

 

Spot on. We need to ditch the saving face and adopt a swagger. We've got a big head in charge and it will show .

 

Nah mid table mediocrity at best, ( at last that’s what I read somewhere on here)

 

Clarke's a breath of fresh air and has talked about promotion since he arrived and I don't see any reason why we won't be up there.

 

. I'm just putting my pole away.

 

Top 6 will be a magnificent achievement given summer turnover.

 

Collins had us staggering to promotion, Clarke will have us swaggering to it

 

Birmingham, with their investment will surely win the league. We'll have to settle for 2nd.

 

As long as it's not your pole that's going up yd better put it away mate

 

Some strong sides about this season. Brum, Wrexham, Huddersfield, Bolton, Charlton and Rotherham to name just a few. If we make the top 6 we’ll have done very well.

 

Management's the key for me, I think Clarke's more desperate to get to the championship than most of us fans, if we don't do it it won't be for the lack of trying.

 

Get ya weekend in Blackpool booked for October like I already have on our road to promotion.

 

I’m probably in the happy clapper camp so will always generally be optimistic and I’m feeling no different right now. That first half today was brilliant. Right from the off (it was 1 minute when Watters hit the post wasn’t it?) we pressed them relentlessly and moved the ball with pace.

Still very early days but on that side today we potentially have Cosgrove, Humphrys, Keillor-Dunn, Jalo and Nwakali all to come in and who all could bring some different to the table. Coaching team have made a decent start too I think. Top 6 minimum. Top 2? We’ll have to wait and see a bit.

 

Err no not yet, as absolutely nothing is clear yet after just 4 games. I'm not normally a natural optimist either, of course!.
And we've been down that road before haven't we, where its slapped us in the face when the expectations rise.
But I do agree with the reasons to be feeling more positive after that match today.

 

Based on tactics and substitutions in the first two games I'd have said no chance. But the performance in the last 2 is like a different side. And that's before the new signings have even kicked a ball. Plenty to be optimistic about for sure. But it's early days

 

If all the teams in this league were like Crawley then yes.
Somehow I think there will be far tougher tasks ahead 8th to 10th is more realistic imho.

 

They're not going down. Early days but I suspect already Clarke is going to get more out of the team than Collins did. Am cautiously optimistic at the moment based on very few days and the transfer window. I think the board might be learning
