I don't know.

However; all (and I include Ruddy in this, despite some of us apparently not) our players are now top division players. They all work hard and believe in what the team is trying to do. They seem to be enjoying themselves (witness Tierney last night doing a Fleming in the rain). So I think that's a big strength, and not one that every team will have.

For what it's worth, I believe we will score fewer goals this season, but also that the defence will look more solid. Barring injuries, I think Grant Holt will become a cult figure, not just among us. If things go well for him, Hoolahan will too.

However, so much depends on the first game or so. I so want to be there to witness the first away top-division NCFC victory in over 15 years.
