    Another centre half and a couple of midfielders and you may be right

    I know we've bought a couple of midfielders, but I still think we lack the quality compared to other teams. I mean Ricketts may be better than Kyel Reid and Johnson looks very similar to Togwell, but that's not much improvement is it?

    Strikers though... they look exciting this year.

    thing is some people will be moaning if we arent automatically promoted after 2 games, be realistic we are at best going to be a midtable team.

    Realistically..

    It's highly unlikely that we will make the play offs, but it's where we should be aiming for.

    Brick on Brick.......................lets do it the Neil Warnock way

    Does everybody remember the Blunts just before Neil Warnock took over
    Near the bottom
    Only 1500 brought to the WELL
    12k supporters at home

    What did he do.................at the start of every season he brought in has beens and young potentials and built a team brick by brick
    Then had a splash of spending when they were ready and got them promoted

    Compare SD having to purchase a new team and starting from scratch
    This is a new begining - it will take time
    If we finish above half way then we have had a fantastic season
    But its going to be a very interesting season
    Some of the new player will be great some may be poor
    But this only adds to the interest

    Derby finished in 20th the season before last i believe, we then finished in the same place last season,

    So i believe we could do the same as them and be up near the top, i know where not derby but anything could happen :)

    Ditto mate, mid table would suit me down to the ground. But it is going to be a difficult season ahead. The new team looks stronger than last season, and i hope we will prove it on the park. Good luck Barnsley and best wishes to Simon Davey and his team. :) :) :)

    Nowt wrong wi gerrin a bit excited. Negativity killed the cat (with the bird on it's head) so why not? So ignore the fact that Bruma couldn't kick the ball on his debut, ahem... I'm looking forward to a competitive season where we can take some big scalps along the way. Who knows where we'll finish... cue standard manager's response... we'll tek ivri game wun at a time. Okay, that would be a standard response if the manager was from Kendray. We have some height in the squad now... which for me was what as been lacking for a few seasons. We just need that match winning midfielder ala Redfearn or Hignett to turn games our way... Howard are you ready?
