We will never have anyone at this club, of his quality, again.
Our owner has decided that the height of his ambition is mid-table mediocrity, if he is lucky. He speaks about us like that, I assume he thinks about us like that (both of these are from 'reports' as he does not actually speak to us at all) and if you read what many people on this board write, THEY too think that this is our rightful place (the best we can hope for).
The days of sheer excitement at our 'potential to achieve' . . are over.
The days of quality players wanting to come here and then coming here . . are over.
I am not being pessimistic, just factual - as most on here seem to routinely acknowledge, particularly the younger ones who appear to accept and be 'happy with' our lot.
I dunno. Give it 20 years we can get back up there.
