Another bizarre post.

Are expectations way too high? I've never seen them lower. Going into the play-offs last year I didn't hear one person say we were going to get promoted. I heard only a handful of people say we'd even get past Eastleigh.

Before the season started I expected us to finish 10th, was that expectation too high?

If you're talking about expectations under Keates and the current set up then expectations should be to avoid relegation. But with a decent manager that isn't a toxic poison at this club and a club board that aren't way out of their depth expectations would be higher, and so they should be for a club this size that has as much potential as we do.
