New striker - Mara 09:12 - Jul 21 with 4442 viewsPatfromPoole

Well….

I await Nick’s view on this guy, given:-

- he scored 6 goals last season, the same as Broja
- he scored them in Ligue 1, which Nick didn’t think was a great League based on his critique of Dembele

Add in Forest and we could yet retain our 15th Place trophy.

With a bit of luck.


What are you expecting?

Fulham, Everton, Bournemouth (and others) made a raft of expensive (flop) signings (just like we did) and didn't come out smelling of roses.

This approach means we get exciting young prospects and hopefully get some decent Cup runs (as we have in recent times) and finish clear of the relegation battle (like we have done in RHs time).

Dreaming of a top 6 or top 8 place is not where we are at right now and will likely take some time to try and get back to where we were.

Fair enough Wash, but what about broadly comparable clubs such as Villa, Palace, Brighton and West Ham?

Somehow the Dildo Twins at Stratford manage to make grandstand signings.

I have forgotten about the Cup since Hassenhutl binned off our quarter-final last season against City by picking a ridiculous starting XI.

15th Place Trophy is where it’s at. Living the dream.

Eh? A ridiculous starting lineup?

Other than leaving Broja on the bench we played our strongest lineup. Maybe we should have rotated the squad more as we did in the previous round where we won 3-1?

And Adams, who was our top scoring forward last season with a slam-dunking 7 Prem goals…..

(Yes I know JWP scored more overall….)

So pretty much it was our strongest lineup but, shock horror, we lost to the eventual PL winner whose team is worth about 100 times what ours is?

That is something to look forward to then, maybe before the last day of the season so we can see an “on holiday” performance or two.

On another note, Mara will be unlikely to make it, as much to saintwizzler’s likely dismay, he appears not to have been inked.

He’ll soon be on a massive wage so ink will follow.
Also knuckle deep in Buddha with Redderz and Jacko.

We thought that we had the answers, It was the questions we had wrong.

You say Palace and Brighton, but nether of them are really spending more than us and could quite easily finish below us next season as well as other teams.
As realistically our objective next season is to finish higher in the bottom half of the table (so like 12th to 15th or something), which we will most likely do, it’s just with the sort of signings that people expect, we should be challenging for top 10/Europe, but as we all know thats just not going to be happening.

I wonder why they don’t play Good Vibrations when the teams walk out?
