I am pretty sure I am in a minority of one but I would be happy with simply staying up this season. I would love us to be in contention for Europe and all that, but we have got to be very careful of 2nd season syndrome: thinking we are a good premier team and all will be well. There are quite a few teams (not unlike us) who did pretty well in their first season, but did not do well in their 2nd season. Cheers A
