In terms of whether we (or Casson) are a success or failure can only be measured by our ambition. Objectively we are doing better than at any time in my memory but if you measure it against the public ambition both on and off the pitch, we are behind schedule.
Be realistic about the ambition and we're doing ok. Maybe the best lesson Casson could learn. It's been said before I know.
The fact that our expectations were so high going into this season and that we are now feeling disappointed that we aren't [SwearFilter] the league are probably testament to that.
Maybe we could get an embarrassing date printed on the sleeves of our jerseys. Gaylords.
Cassons dead set on promotion this year, even in the post on the main site about the new Physio link mentioned the word "promotion". Theres no shame in admitting that the club is a mid table side and is behind in the leagues pecking order. It can be for a few seasons before a push needs to be made.
Last season was a success on the pitch but as anybody knows , FA Cup 3rd rounds don't come every season for non league sides. Neither do unbeaten runs and sales of 3 players at around £250k. There are 2 players from last seasons squad that have played the opening games and there is a new manager to be put in place.
Settle in this league and get off the pitch sorted.
