You're discounting Fev and Donny completely then?
Given our squad will be (should be) eating, sleeping and breathing nothing but RL in a professional sports environment, coupled with the understanding that "this is their job" I would expect us to be able to deal with plucky semi-professionals and amateurs. I did allude to the "one off" surprise that can happen in any sport, but given Hughes's desire to correct the wrongs he still doesn't accept were his fault, we will be at the top end if not at the cap next year and as such, anything less than 19 victories from 22 regular season games, + 1 if we get a semi-pro in the bash would be a disappointment IMHO.
Being spanked for the last 5 years in SL should not mean we should welcome "mediocrity" with grateful arms.
I don't doubt that the fans of Fev, Donny and the other 7 will rub their hands with glee at the thought of "gutters" getting it wrong and being able to vent their internet spleens on here, but the fact is, we should be 2nd to only Bradford next year.
