I want us to build gradually too

No chance of us staying in the Prem if we shoot straight into it. I'm just curious whether we'll go back to being less driven and less obviously ambitious if/when we get our Champ status back. Not doing so doesn't bear thinking about though!

Agree about the accounts too: it's not a good sign. But I think it's in for a penny, in for a pound: we HAVE to get up this season, or else; and will hopefully fend off creditors until we do.

        Hating a player for being injured is ridiculous (NCFC) - Charles21, Jan 5, 17:07:34

        True (NCFC) - pants, Jan 5, 16:57:38
        
        which season was it that Thorne was top scorer for us? (n/m) (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Jan 5, 17:00:01

        If by some chance we end up in the play-offs though, I wouldn't fancy playing them at all (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Jan 5, 16:54:59

        True. But it's not exactly difficult for a club our size at this level to sign (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Jan 5, 16:57:10
