Anybody else feel as though this may be a more TRANSITIONAL season?

Yep ive been saying this, never expected us to hit the ground running in the first month a bit of tweaking here and there, still a few signings to be made & the players getting used to the way Oscar wants to play also after another couple of games everyone will be up to match fitness and then I do believe NO ONE IN THIS DIVISION WILL TOUCH US
also gotta say that KEMY will be this years player of the season when he becomes match fit awesome player :)

Good call. Kemy looks to be a fanastic player....

Love your optimism.....:thumbsup:

Every year people keep saying the championship is stronger than the last...... Perhaps it's better than the prem this year.

I'm not sure there's much difference between the bottom 8 of the Prem and the top 6 of the Championship......

Having a lot of teams that are similar in strength does not equal strong / good it just equals difficult to call. Three very weak sides went up last season.

I think we'll be fine this season (top 10) but a slow start was surely to be expected???

It was another 95th minute bitter pill to swallow yesterday Teddy but once I got over it I could look back yesterday and think what an exciting squad of players we have with more signings to come before deadline day
What a bench yesterday BUCKLEY LUA LUA & MARCH, still can't believe we didn't come home without at least a point but there's no shame in losing away to LEEDS UNITED away in front of 33,000

Bet you didn't say that when we went 1-0 up....

Hindsight is wonderful thing

I wrote a blog on my own page and Amex North Stand that said we'd start off undercooked but get better three days before the season started.

I'm pretty sure we will not finish as high as last season - that was a surprise to me - but I'm quite happy with mid table mediocrity if during that time OG is assembling a squad and style to push on again the following season. I'll predict 8th this term with a late run in march. It is also important that Bloom and Barber sort out these large seasonal deficits, that could hamper us big time over the next 3 seasons or so.

I am happy to admit I have no idea where we will finish. This season. It is exciting though.

Happy with upper mid table this season if we progress a decent style under Oscar and he can start building a squad which, if not expensively put together, is effective playing his brand of football.
