Fat Buddha CBE FEAWe will be considered to be a big team by these tinpot burghs in division 3 and we will be travelling with massive and boisterous support. We will be considered a threat. Our name alone ensures that.
The buggers will want to get one over on us.
This. It is not an arrogant assumption to claim that teams will want to beat us. The same people saying that it is arrogant are calling the hesitation to think we’ll walk this league negative. We won’t!
Yeah other teams probably will, but regardless we should walk this league or at least be near the top in the playoffs. Anything less is a massive failure. I hope Wagner spends as much money as afforded to ensure that that is achievable. We cannot spend more than 2 seasons minimum in league 1 imo.
NouCampThe owners effed us this season with decisions relating to on pitch matters
We're a laughing stock right now, fine FEA and all that but they need to put it right next season on the pitch and get us back up straight away, anything less is further failure on the football side
I expect promotion next season
Theyve had loads to say about super stadiums and delivered fantastically well off the pitch, brilliant ... thank you. Now deliver on the pitch
I think they will
Very fair post and I agree, I'm not arrogant either - just realistic. We'll be a financial power house in League 1 and as has been said, that's normally enough in that division - given you recruit well, which I think we will.
Sides that have struggled to bounce back have struggled because they don't have the money - we have now and more importantly, we can spend it, unlike this season - thanks to Dong and co.
“People will raise their game against us”
The big teams tend to win every league, every year.
Let's all be honest here, we are 'not' going to bounce straight back, hardly any clubs do and those that do (rotherham, barnsley) usually go straight back, this is going to be a slow painful process, however, in the meantime we will have our wonderful sporting and entertainment stadium built, we might not be welcoming Man city or Liverpool any time soon, but will have the likes of Adele and san francisco 49's to tide us over
That’s just conjecture and pessimism, every club with money and solid ownership has got promoted quite easily.

You are presenting your pretty pessimistic opinion as fact - which it isn't. We'll be the big boys next season - I'm that confident I'm willing to pay a tenner to any charity you care to nominate, if we don't get automatic next season. You do the same if we do.
The exact opposite - we need to go into next season confident we are going to batter teams. None of this meek bullshit for once.
Times are changing.

Yeah, we need a mindset among our management and playing staff that we expect to win, we're desperate to win, we have to win and we we're not shy about showing it.

Rotherham always manage to be the worst team in the championship and get promoted out of league one. Im confident

Eff me, can we shed this woe is me attitude and actually start acting like a club that wants to be successful.
I hope you are correct, however the likes of Sunderland, Derby and Portsmouth to name a few were the 'big' boys. If we build slowly it will last, if not we could join the yo yo brigade for several years
This all day. We need to be feared for a change, and make other teams worry about what we can do. Not this, we’ll setup just to limit the opposition, and be everyone’s easy game of the season.
And it’s been spoken about over and over why our situation is nothing like those clubs
