Difficult I appreciate at this time as we don't have either a manager in place or know the identity of the playing squad!
However, if we say appoint one of the names being touted (McInnes, Pearson) and they clear out most of the mercenaries and bring in a few hungry ambitious players with the money Short releases.
Would top half with evidence of a playing style and entertaining football suffice ? Or
A Leeds like season, impressive in parts, just miss out on the play offs?
Sheffield Wednesday - reach the play offs Or
Must win automatic promotion ?
After this season's debacle I honestly think I'd settle for noticeable progress, a few exciting players and some wins.
When you look at the premier league table now (outside the riches of the top seven) we had been in the division for the longest sustained run of any club. Typical of Sunderlamd that we have failed to progress as a club year on year but we're arguably leaving it in a bigger mess than we were when we were promoted under Keane.
Maybe it's just our time was up.
