As everyone knows, for us just to survive in this league is an achievement in itself. For me, I would take a nice comfortable mid-table finish every season for the next 40 years.

Whilst the off the field situation remains AN ABSOLUTE shambles, we simply cannot expect to even remotely start looking at the playoff's. Yes we had THE season when our old mates knocked us out in the semi's , but that really was an exceptional side, In my humble opinion we had the best keeper in the league at the time (Cisak) along with the best midfielder (Ryan) and a fantastic back 4. We where extremely lucky with suspensions and lack of injuries more or less ALL year..... so we mounted a challenge.

But our so called messiah has not helped himself whatsoever with a number of signings he has made, as well as his attitude towards a large number of supporters. Hence myself and a number of others are staying away from Home fixtures currently.

Until the off the field situation changes those that say playoff's or nothing really do need a reality check IMO!
