So working in the law of averages, me adopting a far more sceptical view of mist things related to LUFC, I ought to be proved wrong somewhat more often than I have been, n'est pas? I don't gloat, simply respond to posts like yours and HO (what an appropriate moniker) by saying that my views, had they held sway at LUFC, would have saved the club tens if not hundreds of millions in wasted transfer fees and wages paid to has-beens and never-weres (and as like as not made it more likely that we would still be in the OK, if you regard that as a good thing), who never contributed to the club and in many cases caused it material damage, e.g. Koko, who was supposed to be the next big thing in the gk world, helped us a lot didn't he?

Anyway, you and HO and a few others continue with the "hope triumphs over expectation" philosophy, I'll stick with my more real world views until proven otherwise.
