Anyway it doesnt matter just enjoy the ride Im happy we finally have a good manager and are not going to blow stupid money in the transfer window. 6 or 7 players in over the summer and we have a good chance of staying up we deperatly need a RB and a couple of CM's though

Maybe it's just me but I'm struggling to work out how we can compete at the top table with the gulf in quality between ourselves and the rest being so wide. Personally, at this level at least, I don't buy into the 'in Neil we trust' line of thought.
Don't get me wrong. What was achieved by NW with the relatively meagre resources at his disposal this season was quite remarkable, almost miraculous. However, team spirit and an unbridled work ethic will in my opinion only serve as a good basis for what lies ahead.
Somehow, a compromise between ball retention and direct football has to be found, otherwise we will sink without trace. It is of paramount importance to find the type of players who will enable this balance to be achieved without of course losing the resolve and sheer bloody-mindedness that got us in the Prem in the first place.
If Warnock can achieve this then I will be happy to become the latest fully paid-up member of the 'in Neil we trust' club.
In the meantime please let me enjoy my glass half-empty moment !

Agree with the CM comment. Absolutely vital that we get players in who are comfortable on the ball.
