Let's just give up then eh Ando.
But with a shed load of dosh. Do it the Dingles way.
For gods sake Ando do you have to post such negative thoughts, you sound like the NorthEnd fan that sits near everyone!
If we aren’t good enough for the playoffs why are you worried about the prem?
Fair point cinders.... I have always been pessimistic when it comes to the Nobbers !!!
I don’t think anyone had noticed ?

Agree, if we can just get an early goal for once this season and continue to press and attack them their heads would soon drop.

Come on now Ando snap out of it man and get some of that stuff down you that you take in the Caribbean and you’ll feel a lot more positive!🙂
lol you do make me laugh 🙂
We'll be good enough to be in the play offs if over the season we've accrued enough points to be in one of the four play off spots. That is still a real possibility although the competition for those last two slots is huge. We'll be good enough to get promotion if we win the following games. That is a much bigger challenge and I wouldn't be overly confident if I'm honest BUT its a bit of a lottery and hell, why not give it a go?
Of course playing in the prem would be a completely different situation and would probably mean at least half a new team! As someone else said it's the way forward i.e. the Burnley model that we can best hope to achieve so a season of getting battered in the prem IS a positive.
If we get into the Play Offs, then it'll be on merit.
Yes we'd struggle in the Premiership but 95% of teams do once they get there.
Would we be embarrassed? No.
Don't forget that the team we'd put out in the Premiership would probably comprise of at least 50% of players who currently aren't at the club.

Not much incentive for 50% of our players to battle for promotion if that theory is correct.
You can just picture it cant you?
AN) "Come on lads get us promoted so I can fire half of you off."
Thatll work wont it?

Half the current team would be playing in the Prem ,Half would become squad/fringe players or moved on and the rest would be players brought in for Premiership football. As regards players not having incentive to get there ,every footballer believes he could/should be playing at a higher level so that would not be a problem. Of course we have to get there first.
