Will be a very exciting season ahead - i expected a top 8 challenge but i have been surprised just how good we have looked so far - win our 2 home games and it will be an excellent start - this is just the beginning and the team will improve with experience of playing together .

The new signings have strengthened the squad and i think very good times are ahead.

I think it will be more a mix of 89/90 and 95/96. Probably less successful  due to how the league is now but we'll surprise a lot of people, including some of our own fans.

I said something similar on the post match thread.  I loved both of those teams probably because of the way they almost appeared from nowhere, gave it a real go and surprised a lot of people.  I think 2013/14 could pan out the same way.
