With the club retaining players we had not expected to (usual suspects) we are told the expectation is for us to be challenging for promotion. In reality this is not borne out by performances. These mega stars are mainly not producing, Austin aside and to an extent Sandro on the occasions he is fit.
In view of what the club alludes to and what we see with our own eyes what reasonably can we expect this season?
For me I can't see the club gelling unless there is a lot of activity this January and I doubt that will happen. The dressing room appears a mess and we are too unbalanced. Players don't seem motivated enough. We seem to lack the ability to grab a game by the short and curlies and dictate it. However it would unfair to say we are totally without hope. We have some good players and wouldn't take much of an improvement for us to start scraping wins and draws where we are currently drawing or losing. My own expectation is we will finish roughly where we are and I'm then hoping for an almighty clearout (akin to morning after a vindaloo) of those who don't want to be here and trying to build a team as opposed to a group of individuals who happen to wear the same colour of shirt.
Almost an afterthought but how the fark do we consistently manage to buy decent looking players and turn them into ****?
I was out with a Forest supporting mate on Friday night who was having similar woes with them. Was expecting to get knocked out of the Cup in third round but I assured him he would have to wait until the fourth round. Perked him up a bit.
