Mcaleny, mccalmont and bahamboula were the better players last season. Already lost 2. Lose another and we might as well set our target as avoid relegation now Two ambitions and only two for now: 1. Survival as a club 2. Survival as a football league club And that's it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You keep conflating potential with reality. Run in any decent form we should easily challenge in this league. But with the transfer embargo- Mac gone and Bam potentially going. Reports of Curle arguing with Mo about the standard of trialists. What is there that makes you think anything better than 20th? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you’ll find I said- if he gets us in the top half he’s done a great job under the circumstances. Which you said was bollocks and we should just magically finish in the top 5- completely disregarding we currently only have one player with any talent, and it looks like he’s off.

But then all I was reading (not necessarily from you) is how brilliant our 5 new signings are and how good Whelan and DKD are. So that's 8 unbelievable players for League Two. Top 5 or he should be sacked. Serious too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to get promoted out of a division featuring Sutton, Harrogate, Barrow, Crawley etc is more than achievable. Nobody disputes the owners are jokers but Blackpool, Coventry and Bury have all recently been promoted out of this division despite having crazy owners...

Curle is the first manager under the Lemsagams that I feel has it in him to get us towards the top of the league with an average budget, so expectations from me are higher than normal. However it already looks like Curle is going to have to deal with a lot of unnecessary shit flying his way from the club that it's reasonable to expect that it will hinder him. To what extent is hard to tell, but a full season with a squad of 23 players, Mo marginalised and Abdallah staying largely in the background I'd expect Curle to deliver a top 10 finish based on his previous achievements.

Depends how much is left in the kitty that we are allowed to spend on wages. Caolan Lavery is around a 1 in 6 striker. Not exactly prolific, but he may enable others to score Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
