"Blind optimism"

Holy f**k I thought I was actually way too negative over the last 3 months.

Its not like I said Gunn is the best things since sliced bread...........
I just said lets wait and see what he does with a new group of players.

Dont worry about Gunn costing us money........ he won't have any to spend!
