Relatively 'easy' finish. Merge this thread mods.

 

[L1lyBrown]

All things are relative.

 

[red and white pantalooms]

i would rather play harder teams at the outset when they are not too fluent than bit later when they know their best formations and teams, but as someone just said it's all relative

We are in league 1. If we can't beat these sides we might aswell wrap the season in.

If we lose we can get rid of Ross too.

 

[Jarca]

Will be a good test of Ross to see if he learnt anything from last season.

 

[wanny]

Great fixture list for us TBH. We will quickly find out if Ross is up to the task of getting us up. If he’s not, we have time to replace him and recover.

 

[Wise Man Says]

Get a grip man. We’re in a crap league. If Ross can’t get us off to a good start, he deserves the sack

People can mock and laugh however for where we are and the current state of us it's a tough start. Not one we should fear but still a tough start

Oxford at home is an excellent start - potentially easier than Charlton at home. Also, for the first time in ages I am home from holidays for the start so am delighted to get to the first game.

Nice Boxing Day game again, prefer home then to New Years Day.

Plus first game home and nice last few games so alls good

This. Bolton at home on Boxing Day should be a good fixture

 

[chester perry]

The clown will need sacking if not top by September.

 

[Wise Man Says]

Tough

Three years ago, we had fixture lists against top PL teams. Now people are fannying on about playing Oxford bloody United.

Remove your head from the sand

Exactly this.

Please be realistic to our situation.

Exactly this.

Please be realistic to our situation.

People still not accepting where we are a season after finishing 5th in the league. Baffling
