Sean I know where you coming from but… Look at Swansea. We are on a similar trajectory. Next year we'll be serious contenders. But we are no way ready this year. There is no reason to say that this is a week league & next years relegated teams will be promotion certainties. What we are seeing is a closing of the gap between the divisions. What works? Team work, good football & defense. Plus depth of players. Of the teams up for it next year only Leicester challenge us. We are a big team, we have spirit & we play good football. We have less to fix than most and we have greater potential than all. So I think next year or the year after. SG is building the team with that in mind. How's your Dad? Michael.
