From Despair To Where? I could point out that
Adkins won back to back promotions and his sacking was political rather than performance related and has a track record of overachieving whilst playing attractive football,
that we won this league 2 seasons ago with a weaker squad,
that Danny Guthrie was the playmaker in a team that won this league 3 seasons ago with over 100 points, that the Pog is an experienced international who was scored goals and won cups in Europe and that Le Fondre is one of the best natural goalscorers in this league,
that we have strength and experience in depth out wide and that we have characters in the squad capable of making as big an impact as Roberts did 18 months ago
that the likes of Newcastle and West Brom went straight back up by following a similar model of prudent and sensible management
that we have made 3 excellent signings for an outlay of only £2m
that whilst we may lose some of our best players, we will be in a position to sign replacements of equal ability.
or I could just cut to the chase and point out that you're 7 "Facts" are either complete conjecture on your part or totally irrelevant and therefore complete horse shit.
I do agree though that we should be wary of overconfidence.
Just trying to play Devils advocate a bit to counter the over optimism. I think we will do well this season especially if we sign a CF. But its not a gods given and its more likely that we wont go up than we will.
