But would they feel the same if we have another dismal stretch in there finishing 15th pretty much every year like we did in the late 90s and mid 2000s. Indeed. People forget that until Worthington took over we had years of mediocre struggle in the second tier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is why it's a paradox - success or entertainment and rarely both. Even during those average years, we still turned up to see football and could never be sure of the outcome but we had a team to watch and a club to be proud of. It was a Saturday afternoon out and we had talking points, saw some good stuff (and Elvis Hammond on loan) It is hard not to be defeatist about it but we lurch from amazing to utter sh1te every season - I just want to watch my local team play 90 minutes and never be sure of the likely result either before a match kicks off or as soon as the first goal is scored. If we win something, great. If we don't then it doesn't bother me any more. Maybe I am just getting old and cynical.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A complete rebuild feels like an understatement, of the starting XI today I'd only be happy with Aarons and Rashica starting, if the 2 of them are still here next season.

I'm sure all of that was said 2 seasons ago and we ended up winning promotion at a canter Providing Fulham and Bournemouth are promoted and someone like Everton isnt relegated, I'd expect us to be toward the top again When you see the likes of Huddersfield,Blackburn ,Luton and QPR around the playoff places, it doesnt look the strongest 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s such a load of rubbish.  No side takes all its chances, and their only goal (so far) shouldn’t have stood!  You seem to think we should play with no keeper or something. No one can honestly say Var isn’t anything but a complete shambles, but you have to live with its decisions, right or wrong it is what it is.
