Hmmm. Whilst i am very confident of us doing better this time round, it was exactly this sort of talk which helped kick start our problems last season

This shows a serious lack of ambition from Fitton. If he's serious about taking the club forward we should be looking at pushing for a top 2 finish. We need 7 new big name signings from Premiership clubs then we'll walk this league. I could run this club better. Fitton out.

Bit odd to start raising expectations now isn't it. Its not like the cheap season tickets are still on sale or that we have signed Ronaldo.

If we improve over last season and get a top half finish I'd be happy at that progress.
I think it's good that the manager and Chairman appear to be on the same wavelength and in what they want to do. Things just seem more assured and definite than they did a year ago.

Apparently he's also said he wants us to make a "good start to the season". The man's a disgrace!  |

Didn't we hear the same last season and the season before that.
I agree with you reeves, seems like lack of ambition to aim for 6th but with some big teams in the league next season maybe thats all we can aim at.
I think before Fitton tells us the aim is playoffs maybe we should see what sort of team/squad we have. Looking at our squad at the moment we will be lucky to finish midtable

What this statement says to me is that hes willing to back Wilson to bring in the players he needs to push for the play offs.
Why shouldn't we be aiming for the playoffs? Thats what everyone aims for - achieveable or not.
But then again, I suppose Fitton should be saying "ho hum, lets set our sights on mid table mediocrity"

No, no, no. Fitton should come out and say "We're looking forward to another disappointing season of bilge and flirting with relegation" in order to set people's expectations to a manageable level. Anything more than that shows unrealistic signs of optimism/ambition that are simply unacceptable to those of us used to a diet of constant misery and disappointment
