Thread: Hopes and aspirations for the new season

  1. #1

    Hopes and aspirations for the new season

    Mine are
    That we win more games than we lose
    That we find a striker who regularly scores goals
    That the new players produce good performances that are also good to watch
    That we get off to a reasonable start over the first ten games and thus avoid talk of sackings and relegation
    That our u23 graduates make a sustained impact
    That Joe Ralls remains fit and produces his best.
    That Morison tones down we/he was awful, we/he was great when having lost.
    In summary, the top half of the table, encouraging performances, heading in the right direction will at this point do for me.

    World Peace
    No more spats on CCMB
    For Jesus to want me as a sunbeam.

    I'd take half of that. A change in style of play, philosophy etc. And progress, however small that is.

    I'd like to see a top half finish but think it's unlikely given the sheer amount of incomings and the changes being made, I think it will take time for us to bed in.

    Hopefully the board are not expecting anything above mid-table. I can't see how they can get really, given the lack of funding.

    If we finish mid-table, Morison will have done his job really. No budget, reduced wages, a ton of new players and a new system, I'd take that for this season.

    If we snag a decent forward or two, and maybe another decent centre-back, then who knows, maybe we'll be punching above our weight.

    Improvement in our style of football and a finish anywhere near mid table will be fine for me

    This reminds me of those cringy affirmations like "you can do anything...you just have to want it!" I always want to scream "that's not strictly f*cking true is it?!" I guess I'm not the target audience.

    To answer the OP honestly, score more and concede less. That's all I've got.

    Realistically, I hope we can avoid a relegation scrap and finish mid table. I'd be amazed if we did any better, but we would have broken the cycle of pragmatic football styles/squads, and hopefully have a squad that allows us to add to and improve to play off standard..

    Is a goal in the first half of a game before Christmas a realistic target?

    I think you'll find that a Quantum Physicist may well disagree with you. Have you never heard of Schrödinger's seat?

    I genuinely felt so sorry for those in The Family Stand last season. It must have been miserable.

    Hope that Steve Morison is sacked by November, aspire to one day like a CCFC manager. It’s been a while.

    Hope we finish top half, with some of the youngsters starting to really stand out at this level.
    Give us a good platform for seasons to follow.

    No relegation worries, top half finish, more enjoyable football, something to build on for the future.
