    Naylor is right...aim is promotion or not promotion?

    Gus attributed the improvement in muscle injuries last year mostly to improved conditioning rather than any changes to the pitch. With the turnover in the summer then it is remotely feasible that this may have had a small impact until the new guys get used to it.

    Agree totally. Most fans will understand if exectations are honest and shared. I'm happy with slower progress if it makes us a more solid future.
