TINGLE75 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Looking at some of our rivals start to the season and it got me thinking about how much progress we have made? Our team is basically the same team which lost to Hull in the disappointing play-off final. Looking around at other teams recruitement, they have all improved their playing staff, either by selling of assets then re-spending the money on players (Derby). Or spending new money from new investors (Wolves). Are we expecting too much from this team? Can a team be together too long and become stale?

No, apparently everyone loves a settled team... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owling Wolfe Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) I cant ever remember a team winning the Championship after 2 games. Lets see what progress has been made after 46 eh. Edited August 16, 2017 by Owling Wolfe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevthelodgemoorowl Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Progress and regression share one thing in common. Neither happen in a straight line. Not too impressed by the fannies though ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like wolves have rolled the dice.. Will the gamble pay off or will the wheels fall off? Who knows?. What we do know is Chansiri wants to play the game the right way.. which for us may seem frustrating. But what we also know is Chansiri is here for the long term so yes it's annoying seeing teams buying players Willy nilly, what we can hope is it might take us abit longer to get to the premiership but Chansiri won't be happy until we are. So let's just think that fingers crossed within the coming season we will eventually cross the finish line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neymar wasn't bought just by PSG, the Qatari royal family has paid most of it and are using him as an ambassador for Qatar for when the world cup arrives. Technically PSG don't own Neymar. Its a loophole but it's wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, is it plausible to expect progress year upon year, especially when your opponents are doing their damnedest to stop you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

britpunk77 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 We haven't sold any of our assets for a start that doesn't help with the FFP situation. According to Carlos another 2/3 players should be arriving before the transfer deadline that should freshen things up. With the squad we have a top 6 finish is still achievable, top 2 maybe a step too far. Anyway roll on tonight, a decent win would be a real tonic.
