You really are quite condescending if someone doesn’t agree with you aren’t you?Haha ignoring the point about how much work was needed to close the gap to major clubs who had been not only historically bigger than us forever but for the year Sugar was in charge. You have proven my point TBH, ENIC closed the gap to the top in their first 10 years and kept us there after 20 years of pure regression previously but yeh thats nothing. But fans with views like you prove my point, their success has given you the false sense that as a fan you deserve more because of how close they have put us in recent years....the fact that you have that sense of entitlement means they have raised your expectations
I was not comparing them to Sugar I was stating the fact of how much building was needed to take this club from a club that was lucky to get 45 points a season to CL regulars, if you don't see that as an achievement or a huge success based on where we were the 20 years previous then you are truly churning an agenda.
I was stood on terraces being slaughtered by the Coventry's, Villas, Newcastles with Man United and Arsenal dominating the league with us so far away that it felt like we were a Championship side more than a PL side. You would be lying it in those times you was thinking that in just over ten years of those times that we would be making finals of the CL and being right in the mix for the PL and Cups regularly
well done for going on the terraces, I remember going from uni on a train to Saudi Sportswashing Machine from Southampton to watch us get battered 6-1 in the cup. I remember my dad taking me to Sheffield United to see us lose 6-0… do I need a medal??? So I’ve been there during the and times as well… also I don’t think these clubs have been historically bigger than us forever, it’s subjective, man United were gash pre fergie, he turned it around.
don’t lecture me on what I think we as fans derserve, what a crock of brick…I disagree that a load of work had to be done to improve from Sugar.
What sense of entitlement do I have?? Is wanting your hometown club to reach its potential entitlement? I don’t think our owners are very good, I don’t think they have ever had any intention of making sure we are nothing apart from mid table to best of the rest…
That’s my opinion, just like yours is your opinion, it’s not fact. It also doesn’t make me entitled or you some sort of super fan
