We’ve had similar comments every year for the last 5 seasons now. Then we get into late September and we’re in the bottom 3 and looking at another season of struggle. So yes- maybe we are being a bunch fannies, but that’s totally understandable given what we were told would be this bold exciting future and just witnessed that abomination of a team selection and performance against a team who were in the championship last season. Brighton will be licking their lips after watching that.

We've got to move away from the fear though mate.

Last 2 seasons we've earned the points to finish 20+ points clear and closer to Europe.

We've spent money this summer and will spend more.

Issue is we start every season terribly - we've not won a game in August for 4 years and I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes 5. It then piles the pressure on.

Were the last two seasons tough or something? We started badly but weren’t even remotely in danger.

I’d be more worried tonight if that was a fully fit squad with the transfer window shut.

All teams will be….

I have seen nothing in the last 7 games (pre season) to show that there is anything to be excited about.

Note that half of those games are against championship sides
