I'm 103, you know

Been here before, will be here again, which by the intermediate value theorem implies that we'll go up again at some point in the meantime.

Always feels s**t the first month or so and pants is spot on, the "lovely to be back playing proper football at proper clubs" thing is not going to last when it's pissing down seven hours from home and we're getting done over 3-0 by some s**tty club with 300 fans.

I'm hoping for an exciting summer - though we had one of those last year and look where that got us...everyone, us included, thought we'd done brilliantly landing Fer and the Wolf...

I really, really hope we hang on to Nate. Doubt we'll manage to keep Snoddy but would love us to. Ruddy obviously off, Olsson may be but I really hope we keep him and play him midfield more. Fer will probably go but I have a sneaking feeling we might hang on to Wolfie (whether or not that's a good idea).

        Well yes, but it would seem that takes far more money than we will ever have. (n/m) (NCFC) - CB41, May 7, 13:17:29
        
        I disagree, a bit more steel in the boardroom and I think we could have been on our way (NCFC) - Adster, May 7, 13:22:13
