@owlstalk Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 This season was about not getting relegated We started well (so it raised expectations with fans saying Dave Jones is god and we will get promoted) then slipped a little recently. But overall this season we will collect enough points to be safe The team is forming slowly now and last night was useful ( Bywater for example) and I expect Dave Jones to start turning the ship slowly towards safety island So chillax people - lets get t'matches and sing Jonesy give us a wave and clap him when he does Relax.......

Orlando_Trustful Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Dave Jones said the target was playoffs.... Since when has the target been to avoid relegation? And I'm pretty sure MM suggested something along those lines as well. Our aim this season has never been just to 'get 21st spot and stay up'.

bladeshater Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I would take 4th bottom now still think just below mid-table is acheivable thats is where i expected us to finish before the season started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i used to be sc_owl Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 21st would be a failure after 46 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 21st would be a failure after 46 games. The failure of some fans to be realistic is a bigger worry Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozzy85 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 wecant aim to just avoid relegation, we need to aim for at least mid table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i used to be sc_owl Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 The failure of some fans to be realistic is a bigger worry There are more than three clubs in this league with weaker squads and less resources. A satisfactory season would see us finish 12th - 16th. Success would be top half and a storming season would be top six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRADDAZ Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 (edited) It's far too early to say.... We won't get relegated. & We won't finish in he plays offs. Look at examples in the past, such as Reading, Sunderland, Hull etc. that have started off slowly and been around the bottom three for the first quarter of the season then they finish in the play offs and go up, or even go up automatically. Now I'm not saying we're going to do that but we have only played 7 games and we're 3 points off 10th place, this division will see teams go on winning streaks and losing streaks because the leagues that close. People need to relax, trust the manager who has earned our trust (or should have) with what happened last season and give him time to blend this new squad together and get it right. If not, don't worry because we have a Chairman now who won't sit back and let bad things happen to this football club again, it's not in his interests. Stay patient for a little while longer people.

Handball_!! Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 This season was about not getting relegated That bit is wrong, I don't know MM personally but I don't believe for a second that that is what his aim for this season is. Agree with the rest of it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 I think there has to be two targets 1 - finish as high as possible or even promotion 2 - Dont get relegated Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhollywood Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Dave Jones said the target was playoffs.... Since when has the target been to avoid relegation? Did you really believe that was achievable though? They aren't exactly going to say "we'll consolidate" because then they would get slated for not being ambitious enough.
