    There's always someone at a big tournament that ends up a surprise package. I wonder if it well be him.

    Subbed off shortly after his second apparently. Obviously too hot to handle and Costa Rica not wanting to embarras South Korea too much.

    Right attitude mate, if our young talent is being chased it shows we're running the club properly.

    If you hope, believe and get excited things may actually go wrong and you'll be disappointed ...

    ... If you don't get excited there's exactly the same chance things will go wrong.

    I'll take Plan A.

    And, let's be honest things will inevitably go wrong one day or another, look at title winning Leicester. I'm of the opinion that you should enjoy what's in front of you whatever that may be. When Alex Neil chased the money I shrugged and immediately got behind Mowbray.

    What's the point of only being happy when things go the way you've decided is best ...

    ... I've had as many regrets when the club has done what I'd hoped for tbh.

    This all feels good, at the moment, so I'll squeeze the last drop of joy out of it while it lasts

    Can I be selfish and greedy so we can keep all the decent young lads we have, take the premier by storm and then conquer Europe! It can't be that much to ask surely.....?

    Quality post this. I never understand people who don't want to "build their hopes up" as if they're insulating themselves against the probable future heartache.

    What actually happens is that they end up with the heartache just like the rest of us but never had that feeling of excitement and hope that we're having right now where if feels like anything is possible.

    Football is about dreaming. Loads of posts this year saying they'd be satisfied with mid-table, I get it, but I don't agree with it, and most importantly... I don't think the likes of Clarke, roberts, Stewart, 09 etc etc ad infinitum do either. If we get mid table then fair enough, not the end of the world, I'll just adjust my expectations to waltzing the league next year!
