Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it! |
So basically a team made up of players other clubs didn't want , Nobby's got his work cut out

Lupton, Youngquest and Thacko would be "ok(ish)" in our league now. In SL they will be very ordinary at best!!

We'll see how good he is now after years of having nice well off teams. Personally I think they've signed well. A couple of the players no one's heard of are good young aussies rather than over the hill types. Their biggest issue will be the underprepared start, very unprepared

That's 'an' issue! Poor prep, inadequate familiarisation, an 'ordinary' looking squad - if the expected tonkings happen early on, the crowds will hardly flock to support the cause. The away fans will drop the fixture as NOT being one of their priorities! e.g. some Wakey fans on a restricted budget (I know loads!!) may have to pick and choose which away games they go to. With the crusaders perhaps being looked upon as a foregone conclusion (again, it is by many I know, not all - but by most), then they may prioritize a trip to Leeds, Cas, Northern, Wigan etc than the expense of a journey to Wrexham to see a nowt game!!!! - and believe me, that's how some of the people I know who watch SL are now regarding the crusaders fixture!! As I said, that's "IF" the expected happens!

As I said, that's "IF" the expected happens! I totally agree with this post.I would not travel to see a boring one sided game.They will come bottom of the league, and to be honest i do not agree with celtic getting a franchise place.
