What happens if we fail. I don't like to think of the negatives, but last year, on the way to Wembley, I was so confident I was going to be coming home a fan of a premiership club! After the progress and the unbelievable and unexpected events and changes at the club, I wouldn't be able to bear the thoughts of not being promoted!
Hopefully it is our time especially with the crowds, the build up, the signings, and also about the league and the teams around us.
But what IF it all goes wrong, It is a possibilty, and Im sure it's something that has been discussed at the club at board room level.
Will we lose our Manager? probably, maybe, who knows. Will we lose players ? Bothroyd, Burke, Matthews, and then there's the loans - Bellamy? Will he want to go? or will his recent change of life style and everlasting knee problem, be enough to convince him to stay?
Olofinjana & Jet will also be going back to parent clubs regardless of what happens. Players will leave whether it be free transfers or through player sale, Maybe clubs being promoted from our league will want to snatch a few of our players to take with them?
What about the Malaysians (Tan and TG) will they stay for the fight?
Crowd levels WILL drop - it always happens! Call them Fickle fans, call them Glory hunters or whatever you like, but should we fail, then it will have a deteremental effect on the club in more ways than one!
Personally I see it as a shit or bust season, but I really believe that
WE WILL gain promotion this season, but we have to look at the bigger picture and put it out there, as it is a possibilty and all things have to be considered and debated.
I just hope & prey that THIS is the season that the so called Sleeping Giant awakes
