I don't have any expectation, purely because I don't know how we're going to look in terms of squad come the 1st fixture.
I also, still have doubts over Rooney's managerial capability. I know that will seem harsh to many, but next season he will need a new tactic to the "us against the world" togetherness he has harnessed to date. It might work in a certain relegation scenario, but it won't work in division 3, especially if looking to climb. The performances at the end of the previous season, where he had a decent enough set of players, were not acceptable, even under the difficult circumstances, and could (had Weds not had a deduction) have seen us go through last seasons hell in the 3rd division. I'm hoping he learns quickly, and won't be on his back if it doesn't go right from the start, but he's got a tough job managing everyone's expectations.
