Promotion Questions?

Sat May 18, 2019 11:47 am

Next time we go up will we be stronger?

And will we be in a position to last more than the 1 season?

Or is a yoyo club the best we can hope for?

Well you can only keep a yo yo going for so long
Eventually it comes to rest at one end of the string or the other


I think we've got to keep the momentum going and take promotion straight back, otherwise we'll drift and the premiership will again be a distant dream

Very good managers and a superb recruitment on the cheap in european markets. Unfortunately for them their luck ran out when they sacked Laudrup and they never really recovered from selling Bony to Man City and Michu getting permanently injured, followed up with some poor recruitment in the last 2-3 seasons.

Very hypothetical. I cannot see us going up again for some time.

all I will say on this yo yo thing is its much better to be doing it where we are now compared with it being between tier 3 and 4...4 times relegated to the bottom division..

Pick and shovel is spot on.. we can’t get promoted for about twelve months from now, which is some time..

Clever. But I reckon you could guess that I believe it would be longer than this. 2 seasons at least!

I couldn’t know that, but 2 seasons is still indeed, some time.
