I'm happy with our start to the season

I think we'll get better as the season goes on. No complaints from me.

My only concern is that we won't get promoted this season (and being realistic, that's probably where we are), and then will have to sell off Nelson / Pritchard / Maddison (if he continues to develop) in the summer to balance the books thus making next season even tougher.

But that's not something to worry about for another 10 months!
