The last time we were in this league, although it was league 3, in 2003/2004 we won the league with 92 pts and after 15 games we had 29 pts. So I believe I am being realistic, as CBCB says we should be there. I sick of excuses and the average. Let's take the league by the scruff of the neck and by the end of the season have 99+ pts like the poor club of Northampton!!
He has been supported, but put it in proportion they are free transfers. Yes they will be on decent wages some of them, but it will be no more support than the other challengers get.Will the board stump up for a player, if he is the right one, and he cost 100/150,000 to buy plus his wages?, let's see.
I'm not knocking ambition, and you are right fees very rarely get paid in the lower leagues, i was wondering if a fee needed to be paid, would the board give him the money, or go for another option?.
... I don't think we've signed any 'eyebrow raisers' yet, but then again, because we don't really know these lads (except Rowe), we can hardly be setting any expectation levels at this stage.
...And don't get me started on tennis!
Whatever rings your bells, CBCB! I can't stand cricket - its like croquet with knobs on! And don't get me started on tennis!
L2 is a tough league to get out of, less skils, more blood and guts, as we know from our last experience there. Also newly promoted National Leagues do well in their season in the FL, like we did, so watch out for Cheltenham and Grimsby. I can see Cheltenham going up again aka Bristol Rovers, Johnson is a successful manager at this level.
