Personally I have had enough of all this doom and gloom circulating around the club! there has been 1 constant throughout all of this and it has been the FANS! so lets forget about who is being sold, tapped up, arrested, sacked etc and get behind our club and make st andrews a fortress again where away teams feel intimidated every minute of every game. The fans can be the ones who make the players want to play at a club like ours due to the atmosphere every week. :kro: |

I'm confident Hughton's footballing philosophy will bring the fans back to St.Andrews in their droves. I feel the most positive about the club that I have felt in years. :blues: |

The key reasons why we'll see more fans flocking to St.Andrews... 1) Chris Hughton. Great man, great manager. At Newcastle in the Championship, he played a 4-4-2 formation 44 times, 4-4-1-1 formation 5 times and 4-5-1 just twice. He has the right footballing philosophy - to entertain the fans! 2) European excitement. 3) Bluenose solidarity. If people believe the club is in the ****, we'll rally round and put in our fantastic support. 4) Success! Winning more games in the Championship brings the feel good factor. Anyone want to add to the list? :blues: |

1) HUGHTON - We shall see what he has to work with come the seasons start 2) EUROPE ? likely to last 2 games - this is a realistic view 3) EXCELLENT point 4) WINNING in the champ is KEY - I really hope we have enough players of the quality needed to win games in the championship as if we dont the core blues fans will shring to nearer 15k , remeber 9th in the premier league was not good enough for some |

I can only speak for myself but it wasn't 9th that wasn't good enough for me. It was the terrible football - can you remember we played relegated Hull at home last but one home game and still played 4-5-1. No, it wasn't 9th place it was McLeish and his dire football. It's all changed now. Onwards and upwards. No doom and gloom just happiness we have football back at St Andrews. |

Probably will I have been down to the depths with Blues Trust me winning games is the key IF we can get something going then the atmosphere will be great - I just worry we may not be strong come the start of the season |

Once upon a time there was a tavern Where we used to raise a glass or two Remember how we laughed away the hours And dreamed of all the great things we would do Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were blues and sure to have our way. La la la la... Those were the days, oh yes those were the days Then the premier years went rushing by us We lost our starry notions on the way If by chance I'd see you in the tavern We'd smile at one another and we'd say Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were blues and sure to have our way. La la la la... Those were the days, oh yes those were the days Just tonight I stood before the tavern Nothing seemed the way it used to be In the glass I saw a strange reflection Was that lonely bluenose really me Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were blues and sure to have our way. La la la la... Those were the days, oh yes those were the days Through the door there came familiar laughter I saw your face and heard you call my name Oh my friend we're older but no wiser For in our hearts the dreams are still the same Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way. La la la la... Those were the days, oh yes those were the days |

If only... I'm hopeful the St. Andrews faithful will make a show of solidarity next season, lets bring back the camaraderie. |
