Again mate, it's very hard to read what you've put here.   Lower prices will have lower expectations, yes.  

 

Ok.

The business we did in the last window actually reduced my expectations

That's all it is people.

 

Nothing sinister, no dark forces at work, no problem with the squad, no problem with CC's ability, no reason to drop Lee, no reason to think that Lees isn't what we thought.

 

Simply a season of pressure leading to players trying too hard, feeling the expectations, snatching at things, rushing things, overthinking, trying to 'make sure' rather than take the risk.

 

Simply feeling the pressure which - provided we all have a little patience and allow Carlos to work his magic with the new squad - will soon dissipate.

 

Or, we can all freak out and demand changes.

 

Your choice people, your choice.

cc changes the team too much, players out of position, no settled side injuries apart, its not about trying too hard its about a settled side gelling then the confidence will flow, they are all paid well, are professionals and have one aim which is to win, they just need managing correctly.

Heightened expectations saw us:

• Moan cos Big Jack didnt get us to top flight
• Grumble about Wilkinson not taking us higher than 3rd
• See some fans genuinely pleased when Big Ron was dismissed in his second spell-yes really!
• Sack Francis cos top 6 finishes and multi trips to Wembley were not good enough

Let me know how they all worked out.....

 

With BFR it was nothing to do with expectations - it was because he was a Jooooodas has been as his post Wednesday career showed.

Statistics show that teams that lose a play off final finish mid table the following season.

 

I appreciate you can prove anything statistically but we don't look like bucking the trend.
