Yes don't see why we couldn't, new manager has come in and has been fantastic so far and has made some excellent signings, the whole vibe of the club has changed (for the better) and with the best fans in the world behind a very good squad we're destined for the big time sooner rather than later :ayatollah: :D :D

Just get the numbers in, i don't really care about names as long as they want to play for the club and are of good quality, Mackay's tactics and attitude could get us up! :ayatollah:

We've always had the best fans :D ,the difference this year is MM and the fact that he is building a TEAM instead of the bunch of individuals that played under DJ and they will play for the badge instead of themselves :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

this should be exactly what happens :D :ayatollah: :ayatollah: but is that enough to get us promotion??
We need to get a couple of house hold names, bellamy etc. :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Yes It would be nice to get house hold names (especially bellers) but it's not essential as you just have to look at Norwich and even the jacks, they went up without the big names but with very good squads :ayatollah:

Big names arent as important as a passionate manger who can get the best out of his players. I'm looking forward to this season more so than any other if we get there (promotion) great as long as we dont go into the season expecting it. Onwards and upwards :ayatollah:

last season Swansea and Norwich had players from liverpool and chealse who were on lone, or even baught, the couldn't quite make it at those clubs, maybe we could do the same??

yeah know what you're saying but they weren't in the class of bellers were they, they were just very good championship players which seems to be what we're doing this season which I am actually very excited about :ayatollah: :D

i'd love to say we are going to smash it...

but i think we will adapt our game to slick style of football
which is basically your stereotypical good championship side...

and their are loads

I think we've got a good chance of being competitive this season under Malky and we could do good things if the team gels. But I don't think Malky should be under any pressure to deliver promotion in his first season - should be allowed time to build a team and squad.

I do.

Unrealistic expectations borne from the last 4 years at this club and the hundreds of "new" and vaguely plastic fans that may have turned up of late (the boo boys, basically).

A brand new squad.

A brand new manager. Brand new coaching staff.

All have to gel.

This doesn't happen straight away.

We need to give it time. IF we go up; chuffed.

If not, but we show signs of eradicating the debts and surviving in this league and gelling as a team and as a club, then still, chuffed.

I agree with the last two posts, I'm looking forward to a season with less expectation. Building for the future takes time, and I'm willing to give our new manager the time he needs, I'm just glad we've got one who's like a breath of fresh air.
