We're definitely on the right track to go for it consistently every year but it wouldn't surprise me if next season we don't quite hit these heights while they two improve. It'll be seen as a "regression" and can see the cammos and terrys of the support throwing their toys out the pram and us taking a bit of flak in the media if/when we don't maintain another challenge into the latter stages of the season. Needs some cool heads.
Aye agree, don't think hearts not challenging = regression. For me celtic & rangers have the ability to improve far quicker and easier with the cash they have behind them where for us it's going to take time.
If we don't challenge next season i'm not going to be worried. Big thing for me is continuing to recruit and sell well because that's where we build the foundation to challenge consecutively. A bit too early to expect it the now. Although i was seething at Bloom when he said he wanted to see us challenge this season on the back of last and they've went and delivered it so fuck knows, maybe we can do it again
