1953 Posted March 14, 2017 Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 Dear God. Wouldn't it be wonderful to have a thread without someone wingeing and moaning about price rises, SL, Johnson, Ashton, destroying the club, Johnson, Johnson, Johnson etc etc etc. The reality is the club is in the Championship, and worst that may happen is to drop a league. What happened last time? Massive joy at having won a title for the first time ever. Big crowds, atmosphere, excitement. Something sadly lacking this season, certainly in terms of atmosphere. The big mistake was not to build on the momentum gained from that success. So instead of thinking your cider glasses are half empty, think they're half full because there are any awful lot of clubs in a far worse position than this one. I bet Rotherham would swap places for a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went went down and continued to struggle for 4 months, before a new man came along and saved us from the clown who was taking us down to division 4. And as pointed out above, it wasn't our first title ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDOXO Posted March 14, 2017 Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 I'm always amazed at how little some posters actually know about the club, particularly when they tell me how it wouldn't be a disaster if we were relegated! it bloody would for me, SL and any number of others . Still at least Rotherham would swap with us ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
