Never in my life have I felt such trepidation at the start of a season, last season was full of hope for a return to the premiership, the season before was filled with a different kind of hope, a hope that we never got relegated 2 seasons on the bounce (like Wolves/Sunderland) Prior to that the season started with a recently installed manager hoping to avoid relegation......................
But this season I don't have a fucking Scooby Do, is it a fresh start, new era, if were not in the top 3 at Christmas has Bruce gone?
Can we hang onto Grealish and more Importantly Chester?
The transfer window closes in 11 days and I doubt the current squad will have us top of the league looking like promotion hopefuls. Happy to see more deadwood leave the club.
Do we have enough about us to compete with the three clubs that come down from the Prem last season?
I would like to think our new billionaire owners would be able to hatch a plan to sponsor the club to rid it of any FFP restrictions...
I just dont know how this season is going to pan out, the most nervous pre-season ever.
