So the question that really needs answering is..........

Is the future as bright as the club seem to make out?

I suppose it depends on whether you also believe them when they say We've trained well this week, We've learned a lot from our latest thrashing and The team spirit is tremendous.

We no I haven't believed that for months.

But as Mr Monster and Red have seen them recently I was hoping they or anyone else can restore my faith in what the club tell us.

I think the only difference is that we will field a team of world beaters - but only at 4 minutes a time.
