It would be a very tall order, unrealistic even to expect it to be the same. However if we are humiliated in Europe which is a distinct possibility and start the season on the back foot from the word go and our domestic form is also poor resulting in us involved in the relegation dogfight, or worse actually being in the playoffs or relegated, then that will be hard to be looked on as anything other than a disaster of a campaign. On the other hand a solid if unremarkable season with a league finish anywhere between 6th and 10th wouldn’t be disastrous. If ma auntie had baws she'd be ma uncle.

wellsince75 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago At the moment it's underwhelming. On the downside Top manager leaving + top players left/leaving + small squad + injuries are a tough part of the equation. One the upside Adding Alfred + 3 signings by mid July. Observations Injuries to Jonny, SOD, McGinn, Hendry & McGhee - no suprises there ,majority often pick up injures or getting on. Conclusion None of the above was unknown or surprising. What we've to date secured isn't sufficient. Without a competitive ball being kicked it's very difficult outline how we'll be competitive for top 6. Hoping and willing to be impressed with a surge of quality coming through the door but so far it's underwhelming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, going out of the UCL at the first hurdle, given who we're playing and what this team achieved last season, would be a disaster. Especially as I think it would negatively colour the rest of the season before it's even begun. I think you need to look up the word 'disappointment'. I think you'll find it fits the bill more than 'disaster' for what you're describing... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
