Disappointed, but can't be ars*d with the negativity.
Carrick has given us real hope for the future. On our day, best football team in the league. Who would have said that in October?
We have played cracking football. Scored goals. Entertained. Had a brief chance of chasing down Sheff Utd......and for that dozen games or so automatics were tantalisingly in our grasp.
But in the end we fell just short. Injuries to key players ultimately did for us, but that's football. We regroup, learn from it and go again.
Carricks honeymoon is over, now he has to really show us what a good manager he is. And I believe he can. Recruitment has turned the corner so the Monk / Warnock / Wilder days are long gone.
We look forward, and already I'm excited for next season. It's going to be tough. Brutal. An absolute b*stard of a league to get out of. But I look at this season as a test run, see where we need to improve, what players are up for it, who needs to be moved on. Remember the Norwich playoff final no show and what happened next ? That's where we are.
Core of the team - Chuba, Lenihan, Hackney, McGree, Forss.....reasons to be cheerful. Add to the squad, we'll be fine.
We may be staying down ......but we are definitely not out.
