I too hope you’ll soon get used to writing about winning, again and again.
Excellent start for Dean Smith at home, as you say and green shoots of recovery for the team! Thanks.

Need to start winning away if we are to trouble the top 6.

50/50, our chance of going up this season, for me.

If not this season, it will be next.

I’d almost want us to stay down another season and Smith to get us bang ready for the premiership, by having four transfer windows, having pissed the championship next season and huge momentum for the step up.

Whilst I think we do have a chance of going up this time, we could struggle in the premiership first season back and would be a high risk we’d go back down. People think the championship is hard, which it is, but no hiding places in the premier league.

You can’t say that though, people don’t want to hear it and I suppose if really pressed, i’d Definitely take scraping promotion this season and riding our luck next.

It will largely depend on how quick the coaching staff can turn the ship.

One thing, we have to get the Keeper position sorted by the end of Jan. If Nyland comes good then great, if not, new keeper in the new year is top priority, for me.
