We have in other threads, i was saying how good it would be to beat them in a couple of weeks time and make them miss the play offs, that would be great!
It would be a nice end to the season. And I would literally p**s my kegs laughing. Infact, if we do beat them, I will bare my backside in the middle of the WRE!!!!!!
I think we will hold you to that.

I can't see us beating them til 2010 maybe.

Going back to the thread and moving away from fond memories of bovril. Realistically, we can acheive the new stadium .... look at how quickly xscape went up. By no means will we be GF winners in 3 years, but we can certainly acheive a top 6 status within 3 years. Next year we should be pushing for mid table and a good run in CC. If we hit top flight too quickly it could have a negative effect, especially if we cant match it the season after. Good progress and steady progress will make us in the long run a stronger, firmer team and club.

We now have, just as all the other SL clubs , a similar opportunity. What can we realistically expect to happen in these three years and what do we need to do to retain the franchise.

New stadium is an obvious starter.
This should help increase revenue
Youth development appears ok

I would be happy with top 6 finishes. What does everybody else think?
Are you RW?
Carlsberg don't do Soldiers, but if they did, they would probably be Brits.

:lol:
Youth development is ok? Our youth development is one of the best in SL with the likes of Joe, Owen, Shenny, Craig and Ryan plus more, our 18's are 2nd in league and i think 3-4 will be wanting 1st team places come next year or next!
