I’d be happier to get promotion this season than last season. Feels like

with this lot there are more players who maybe haven’t reached their ceiling yet, and might step up. Last season that was almost zero.

Also no guarantee but the new owners might be able to fund a bit more this time around (and hopefully Knapper and the manager might use it more wisely)

But ask me again after the January window. Bit early to be thinking about this.
