What would you like from next season?

[CBRammette]

My son and I were just talking before he went to bed. We would like a dull season - new owner, no EFL rubbish, no big star, just a team of professionals playing like a team with a nice boring mid-table position. Would that ever happen do you think? How about you?

New owner, massive transfer fees, huge expectations, new celebrity manager...then Mac or Wassall helping us escape relegation on the final day.

[IlsonDerby]

A first team built around Bielik, Jozwiak, Lawrence, Shinnie, Byrne and Buchanan with a squad built around Festy, Sibley, Knight, Bird, Roos, CKR. 
 

Competing in every match with far fewer capitulations. 
 

A pattern or style of play that we become better and better at as the season progresses. 
 

Fans back in the stadium.

It did happen between 2009-13 but eventually there was significant supporter discontent.

I guess the good thing with this season is that it lowers expectations...suspect most people would be happy with a 10th placed finish next yr but doubt the fanbase would accept midtable beyond that. Between lowered expectations & a low wage bill/lean squad, there's a great opportunity to build here next season

No!!!!!!!

Hard to put into words in a way, but I'd like it to feel like my club again.

[Foreveram]

Win the league by Easter is what I want but I’m prepared for a bit of give on that.

Just one season of no- drama will do fine!

Goals. Good football. I want to be entertained, even if it's a mid table finish, I want to lose games 4-3 rather than 0-1. We've had 2 years of pretty dull football now. 

[Millenniumram]

Scoring some goals would be nice 

[benjo]

Mid table, beat forest twice, win the fa cup!

You have put it perfectly. 

[Ramslad1992]

Win the league is what I want. I’ll accept a top half finish though. 
 

id also like us to score more goals. 

[Pearl Ram]

I would like a drop of stability off the pitch and a consistent plan on it. None of this (attempting to) adapt to whoever’s style of play, an emergence of our own identity. 

And Bristol City to get relegated, had a look on one of their forums tonight and boy, do some of them dislike us ? 

[RIMBAUD]

A team and club I can feel some real affinity towards playing attacking football that is fun to watch. (That is heading towards the top half of the division rather than the bottom.)

I want to start really enjoying it all again. 

[Kinder]

I’d like the same manager to start and finish the season and to feel confident he’s the right man to take us forward.

There have been some crazy hopes expressed so far, but that is just ridiculous!

(And this was actually the season we had some managerial stability going into a new season for once!)

[FlyBritishMidland]

We need to build a club and a team.  I don’t want to see us spending millions on a short term solution.  Get players in with the right attitude and character. Players who you know will give everything, every week, without fail.  Something we feel we have a connection with.  A team we can be proud of.

This might mean 2 or 3 seasons of mediocrity but that’s OK.  Let’s go up when we’re ready, with players who are capable of holding their own.

[ariotofmyown]

Been able to go to Pride Park again. Finding somewhere to park without getting there 2 hours early. Kids enjoying it after no match in 2 years. 

[Van der MoodHoover]

Let me assume we stick with Wazza as manager and the takeover completes. 

Then for next season I would like to see.... 

- progression for our young players who have gone backwards this season 

- better physical conditioning so we accrue fewer injuries

- a couple of astute lower price signings. Edmundsun and ideally a eustace clone

- a return of fans to the grounds

- a steady, but encouraging mid table finish. 

That'll do pig...that'll do.... ?
