Anything but a defeat would be OK to start the season off. Would happily settle for a 2-0 win though.
I can't speak for everybody else but I'd be very disappointed with a draw.

Very rarely is a point away from home a bad result
We were spoilt away from home last season and also in opening games over the last 10 seasons or so, I would take point

Swindon Town a team that graced the Premiership albeit for a very short stop. Look how the mighty have fallen, a draw against a woman making tea in a fucking shop.
Ffs we are shite. 😂

It's game 1 of 46. A draw or defeat won't be the end of the world.
As long as the begonias look nice tomorrow, that's the main thing.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change? Crap!

Judging by the Cardiff game we don't look quite ready for the season to start. If Harrogate are going to be as poor as predicted then we might get lucky, and if we don't then there'll be toys everywhere.

Agree with both your statements, however Harrogate have been tipped by almost everyone to struggle so to get 3 points on board first up would be a fillip. Ordinarily a draw away is never a disaster but I think given the circumstances we'll be looking to get all 3. Scott Lindsey did state we'd be fresh due to the fatigue thing against Cardiff so I'm hoping he's true to his word and we put them to the sword!

I recon a TEF XI would beat Harrogate.
They have had a pretty decent pre season TBF. Harrogate 0-2 Sheff Weds Harrogate 0-3 Rotherham Harrogate 1-0 Huddersfield Harrogate 2-2 Barnsley Gateshead 1-3 Harrogate

I went to try and find a Harrogate forum to get a feel for their confidence, and the top result on Google doesn't seem to have had a post since December last year. I know it's not an enormous fanbase but that seems pretty remarkable.

I wanted to do the same. Ended up joining a harrogate facebook fan group with approx 2k members. Had to answer 3 questions to get in. Got approved and booted instantly. Must've stalked my profile to figure out I wasn't in fact a true Harrogate fan. Was very odd how they were so strict on policing it!

We have to win, simply to avoid the first home crowd of the season being on the player's backs within 15 minutes.
I would be disappointed with anything other than a win tbh and I do expect us to have enough about us to get 3 pointsbut a draw wouldn't be the end of the world.

it'll be interesting to see who is between the sticks. Not seen enough to give a valid opinion .
The game? Who knows. it's early season. Weird results happen.
I'll say 2-1 town
