Haven't managed to see the last two or so games, but given the results I would hazard a guess that you could indeed say the recovery is ongoing.
As said, speculation of this emerging as a challenging squad is maybe a little presumptuous. But, that being one of holding its own in this league is looking more and more promising.
However, will that be enough for Venkys ? ie yet another year of stalling in this second tier ( where they never had a vision of over expensively marketing their brand).
That is and always has been the concern for me personally.
I really hope this is the beginning of 'pay back' for GB, as he fully deserves is, and is very welcome.

PS: welcome back Moony.....you have been missed!
