Id be over the moon seeing the lads lift a trophy, while an established PL club.

Id love a final/semi final once in a while.

Id be happy seeing us as a club people talk about positively. An established PL club that has an outside chance. Thats all I want.

My lad started taking an interest in us in the L1 promotion season. Hes only ever known us improve. I want that same feeling. Slow progression and gradual improvement is fine.

(Actually fuck that... I want us routinely and comfortably above the Vistors)

In fairness, we were the better team first half but we stunk, second half.
We haven't really been poor in any game: we've only had poor halves. Man U we matched them, second half and we were better than Wist Am second half, but the damage was done.

Yeah I know, I’m not saying we deserved to get anything from it. We’ve not deserved to get anything out of any of the games we’ve lost I don’t think.

Those two are just the ones that annoy me most.
 
Next few seasons challenging for Euro spots and trying to win a cup. Beyond that if we are successful in cups/lower Europe should be looking to try and break into top four.

It's obviously hard as fuck and might not happen but mid table obscurity usually never ends well, you get a few seasons and then it'll go to shit and you're back down the leagues again so no point in just settling for that.

However let's establish ourselves in the Premier League as a decent team before we start having visions on grandeur. Plenty teams had a good first season and then fell apart the season after, lots of work to be done yet.

Not getting the penalty at Man Utd was a body blow, the keeper not getting booked/sent off and Traore booked for diving another.
West Ham we were so poor but they took every chance and it was one of them days in the end

We couldn’t pass the ball for 45 minutes at West Ham and everything they did seemed to come off.
 
At this point, I’d rather go for broke each game trying to win, even away, instead of settling for draws in attempt to make Europe. United, Chelsea and Liverpool seem pretty vulnerable and you gotta try and take that opportunity.

Don't be silly, that is saved for my end of days like Wagner and Opium. I enjoy his frenemy Oliver StJohn Gogarty though and Flann O'Brien as they aren't as psychologically mature.

I'll stick to Hans Zimmer and Guinness!

I am happy. Ecstatic in fact.

Although there's a big part of me missing the excitement of a promotion push. :eek::oops:
I just can't convince myself we're pushing for Europe. I'm far too doom and gloom for that.
Maybe that buzz will come back if it's looking realistic with a few games to go. When I'm looking forward to us being in the FA Cup final. ;)

I'd be over the moon with a decade+ in the top flight without circling the drain like we so often have previously.
 
I'd be happy if we win the cup this year. Got a cheeky tenner on it.

Seriously though, us being a well-run club aiming to improve each and every year, and delivering on that, is a dream come true. Sky's the limit
 
Being competitive in the PL.

Some seasons will be tougher than others, but if we can establish ourselves in the Prem (ie finishing between 8th and 15th) consistently, I’ll be happy.

I’ll be delighted with the occasional cup run or the odd European campaign too though!
