Kenny Foggo 1,116 Posted February 11, 2020 (edited) Chris Wilder has done a magnificent job and he has been backed by his board wisely. Shows what you can do with sensible investment. Hopefully we will do so one day and also achieve a fantastic season or two in the top flight. No City supporter would not want that...

sonyc 5,518 Posted February 11, 2020 The difference this season has been ridiculously small margins for me in 4 to 5 games, with amazing keeper saves, woodwork and VAR decisions. This is not meant to be an excuse but had we gained just another point in each of those 4 to 5 games rather than none the position would be so much tighter than it is at the foot of the table. We have catch up to do now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have catch up to do now. I think that is right but on the other hand, I bet all those around us in the table are saying the same thing. The small margins are our fault. The big ones, like VAR, are not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like 400Million is the stake required to join the top table. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like 400Million is the stake required to join the top table. Thanks for this , very interesting read and it sums up why my interest in the game in general is "diminishing" . I am a NCFC supporter for life and I go to their games as much as I can , but the state of football in general is not good imo. I find myself watching, following more and more other sports. My son has started doing athletics recently , a few years ago I would have done much more to convince him to start and play football.
