Fop 1 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Shame we didn't lose the first three games of the season really then people really could have gone into full-on fanny mode. Fact is though, unless we bring in a few (and/or some loans) an injury streak like Roeder's and we'd be playing with a youth team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we don't we're still better off than we've been for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope so, the difference is the usual panic is like everyone running about screaming that their ship may hit an iceburg (might happen, but unlikely). But starting a season with a tiny squad is more like trying to cross the Atlantic with only half the fuel you think you'll need and hoping for favourable weather to get you there (might happen, but also unlikely). Admittedly we don't have the number of games to worry about, but still I think we're about as small a squad as a Premiership team can get away with, and it'll still cost us points over the season.
