Pretty low.
I was genuinely looking forward to this summer when I assumed (laughably) that after balancing the books Lerner would start investing in the club again. In fact we have spent less, not more and Lerner has just shrugged his shoulders and admitted he just is not interested any more. Sadly nobody else wants us either.
Lambert is going to have to struggle by, with the added pressure of zero leeway from a vocal section of fans. That will make our life even harder. If he gets hounded out then we are in even worse shape as Lerner will hire no replacement, who would come with no money?
Very low optimism. To be honest another season of being one of the constant relegation candidates who will go down this season or next is souring me on football in general.
Whats the point?
