In RaWZ we trust....Amen.
What will constitute a successful season for the club in 18/19 with a rookie manager at the helm ?

Whatever anyone thinks of Paul Tisdale,last season a 4th place finish & 80 points is very successful in the context of Exeter City’s history.

Play offs,autos,or just a season regrouping & surviving ?

I think we have to be realistic. If we can mount a play off challenge I'll be very happy. Personally I think will be mid table next year. we are entering the unknown and i'm looking forward to it. A good start, which like last year is likely with a similar squad and the continuity that brings, could see attendances rocket at SJP what with the new stands and everything else.

I don't think i'd be *happy* as such with a mid or lower part of the table finish but i'd rather that he's given the time to find his feet and make his own impression on the squad and our style of play before i start to jump up and down. Not that i really ever jump up and down anyway.

I'd go for: starting a new cycle, building the club from top to bottom, building credibility, and creating a constant environment.

2 minute hobble from the nearest pub. Or in it.
Entertaining football and a top half finish is all I ask.

following through
Challenge for playoffs would be nice but a more attacking approach and a more positive atmosphere.

I will be alone in this I am sure but league position is secondary for me at the moment. I just want to enjoy supporting ECFC again and that can be done even with losing matches.

Success would be promotion, simple as that. However good football, exciting signings, positive atmosphere around the club and no bull interviews will make me a happy man.

Top half would be great - Matt needs to find his feet but a more attacking approach is a plus - as others have said to be entertained and to enjoy the new era would do me
