I'm cautious but hopeful. There were points last season when we were quite poor under Russell Martin, but in the last 10 games or so we really took off. If we'd picked up our form 2-3 games earlier then we could have even snuck into a playoff spot. But now we're back into the usual run of losing players, a new manager - so I hope Duff makes a strong start or we easily risk losing momentum and continuing to slip down the table.
