dubai_phil Posted 18 August, 2013 Share Posted 18 August, 2013 Lots of appreciation threads around of course. But after the bitter battles and stick that some posters (& MLG) got for thinking that NC was being serious. Do we think we are on a course that will lead to the promised land of Europe or even the CL? Have 3 Swallows made a summer? What else do we have to do to make that step up? For me, in retrospect, the Man Ure era was built on their youth coming good at the same time backed by a quality manager & Board. Will that really happen in the modern era? Is our Team Spirit now actually capable of keeping the Youngsters (& signings) together? Do the PLAYERS now believe? Are we the only part of the "Project" that are waiting to wake up & find it's a cold wet December morning & we are still in L1? Discuss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eurosaint Posted 18 August, 2013 Share Posted 18 August, 2013 Until we sign Leighton Baines as back up to Shaw (when Fox leaves) I won't start to really believe ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye true that. And my Twitter has been a mess ever since I clicked on Bearsy's link. The question was do we believe we are on course now for Europe & beyond?

KelvinsRightGlove Posted 18 August, 2013 Share Posted 18 August, 2013 The silence of certain posters is deafening. No pulling power? Deluded? Wasting time on targets that will never sign? Ruining our chance of getting off to a good start? We can't keep our players - Luke Shaw will be off before he signs his contract. Blah blah blah. #itshappening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 18 August, 2013 Share Posted 18 August, 2013 I'd be gutted if we weren't at the very least top 10 now, and my expectations have just nudged up to top 8. Last time I said this, my expectations nudged up to "possibly automatic promotion" from "pretty sure we'll be in the playoffs"... and we led the league most of the season. So... hopefully that'll be us sniffing around the Europa League places. Even pre-Osvaldo our one match has seen us mostly dominate against a team we lost to awfully twice last season.

Saint_clark Posted 18 August, 2013 Share Posted 18 August, 2013 Even Turkish is starting to believe, that says it all. This is a massive season for us now though. Would love to see us win a cup as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintBobby Posted 18 August, 2013 Share Posted 18 August, 2013 I don't believe we will make the CL, no. I still reckon we will finish about 10th or so. And getting into the top 6 is VERY hard. But wow this looks good just at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
