Love how after we were made officially NETD (!!!) it is apparently a blip after the 3 previous successful seasons. Those 3 seasons where we were at our lowest eb in the last 20 years but are seen as a great achievement because they were marginally better than our circus.
The season we were relegated they finished a meagre 2 points ahead of us, then in our Championship season they had a dismally average campaign in the top flight being kept up by one man's goals and going nearly 4 months without a win at once stage. Then last year they stole ahead of us as a newly promoted team by one point on the last game of the season and it was again celebrated as a successful season. They've had - for the most part - 3 turgid years of at the very best mid-table mediocrity but are looked on as a halycon period for the club because they were slightly better than us.
Now the balance has well and truly been restored with a potential 20+ point gap and us back in Europe but of course it is just a blip for their best team in 50 years.
