Not a million miles from the truth there
I'm not sure our current form suggests a 7th or 8th place finish. As 1865 said in an earlier post we'll have a better idea after 10 matches but there will have to be some improvement in form over the next 5-6 games to suggest a top 8 finish is likely.
Realistically we are probably where we expected to be after 4 rounds; its just that the performances against Hudds and Wire raised expectations.
First there was wisdom Then there was knowledge Now there is only information

There's certainly an element of that. However there are those that, seemingly, wait for opportunities to have a good meltdown and berate everyone at the club and anyone who dares to think differently. My stand point is that 4 games in to a season is not enough to judge how a season will turn out, especially when we've only had 40 minutes of poor rugby, really.
just bought our tickets for the game on friday night, must be mad! but thats what being a fc fan is all about isnt it? through thick n thin, rain or shine?
(although our patience with radford is wearing pretty thin!)

TBF even the coach thinks we've had 120 minutes of poor rugby:

And Leeds and Salford lowered them. The problem is the manner of the Leeds defeat, which suggests that the old failings, that we thought had gone after the first two games, are still there
