Re: Style of play

Are any of you lot realistic ????

Our aim this year should be to finish 17th ... anything above that is a bonus

Expecting top 10 ? .... not realistic ... you're dreaming, and it would be great - but don't have expectations that are inevitably going to make you sour.

My expectations are simply to play a much more attractive style of football than we have become accustomed to. All this positivity will count for shit if we play the same kind of football that we have been playing for the last few years.
We are making decent signings, players at the right age, more athletic and pacy than we have had for god knows how long. I expect, not hope for, expect, a much better style of football this season.
I think we should give Eustace at least 3 months to show us what he can do with the players at his disposal. If we are struggling come the end of October then I’m afraid he’ll be gone, and rightly so.

No ... you are demanding he be successful AND play attractive football.

I agree that he shouldn't be given longer than Christmas to see of he can improve upon our performances last year - but you sound as if you want us to be successful ONLY on YOUR terms.

Where did I mention that I expect success?
I just think that the most important thing we need to do is try to play a more attractive brand of football. Now if at the end of October we are in 14th position and playing decent football, I would class that as relative success and I would say that we should keep faith with the manager.

However, if we’re 14th and still playing hoofball then I would most definitely say get rid. The only way we are going to progress on the pitch is if we try to play football.

We will be stuck in the lower leagues forever playing hoof ball and I don’t think there’s many of us supporters who can go through another season watching the shite we have had to put up with these last few years.
