Steep learning curve is about right.
I genuinely felt optimistic when we started the season with signings like Gower, Robertson, Rodney, Kafusi and had SL standard players like Colbon, Cook et al to replace not-quites like Olsi and Jamie O'C. Even kidded myself that 'names' Mark Calderwood and Karl Pryce might show something like form when they were down here.
Struggling to get excited about this team though. Given Salford's on-paper improvement (teams with Adrian Morley in don't finish last), and Cas, Wakey and HKRs squads we're looking down the barrels of a solid, and probably record-breaking, last place.
After losing all the players, all the staff and moving grounds I'm even struggling to think of it as my club anymore.
How's that for pessimistic.
