So I don't just have optimism, I'm honest enough to stand up and be counted when I do have doubts now and again. But then as often happens, Eddie has changed things around at half-time and the game is turned on it's head, although as we know Fraser's goal was a real bonus. I'll put it down to my age, YEARS of watching AFCB teams capitulate, doing so on a grand scale at times, leaves me with a fear that all that is good won't or rather can't, be good for very long as it always goes pear shaped. But I DO have huge faith in Eddie's ability, the new outlook is sometimes one of disbelief, but then realism when I look at the talent in our squad, and THEN, my optimism comes into play, and we're almost world beaters LOL...Afcbpetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17667305505142218557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242217270655542116.post-7949217001436292742013-10-13T16:18:12.259+01:002013-10-13T16:18:12.259+01:00Love your optimism afcbpete!

This is where he earns his money - I'm scratching my head.Cherry Chimeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08392138906647278953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242217270655542116.post-19349314749045939212013-10-13T14:44:21.093+01:002013-10-13T14:44:21.093+01:00I had a good chuckle the way you talk about the ne...I had a good chuckle the way you talk about the next two games being the hardest fixtures to date. It wasn't me laughing at what was written, it was having a laugh at myself. I keep doing this (NO, not laughing at myself, I leave that to others), like you, I look at the next couple of games, there's a deep intake of breath, and I think no, be positive, we can get something out of them. Those games come and go, then low and behold, I'm doing it all over again. Without doubt, the next two games will be extremely tough, I'd be VERY surprised if we get anything out of them, but then, with players coming back from injury I really do believe we have a squad to cause a few surprises, so who knows. Plus Tokelo scoring for South Africa won't of done his confidence any harm. THEN, we get those games out of the way, and what do we have?? Bolton and Burnley!! OK, so Bolton are struggling, and we're at home, but HEY, does it ever get any easier??? Nope, not in this league!!!
