Also totally agree.
Good thing is Huddersfield look in free fall so may be coming right back down.

100% agree, as painful as it is we'll have to fail before we succeed, I don't
know if TC is the man to take us up, BUT whoever it is needs some time to build
a team, the basis of which is a premier league team. Changing now probably
won't achieve anything and will put us back at the starting point.

Subject: [LU] LU We are a 2nd Tier Outfit - QED
Another mildly disappointing result then, just squeezed in before the
pantomime season draws to a close for another year. Three red cards in
three games - the old chants of "Dirty Leeds" grow louder week by week. I'm not
so down - hearted though as I would've been a year or two ago. Against the
undying and huge support we have and many of the other attributes of a first
tier club, our performances place us firmly in the Championship where we
rightfully belong - for the time being. There was an air of inevitability
today given that Milwall hadn't won away all season.
Statistics like that seem to floor us. We have good patches and then self
combust. Wolves lost to Forest, of course, showing that nothing can be taken
for granted, but Wolves will bounce back and learn from it, whilst we carry on
much the same, if not a little more damaged, in preparation for the lighting
of our own blue touch paper again and poor subsequent poor performance. The
Newport legacy may haunt us for some time. Things have been better in parts
this season, but I've never thought we were ready for promotion. We've never
"dazzled" or properly hung teams out to dry - more of a scraping single goal
victory with a higher percentage of possession .
The Championship is truly hard, but some top teams are noticeably a cut above
the rest - we're not one of them yet. TC appears mildly naive and I wish Monk
had remained. I'm expecting a higher mid table finish (if we can regularly
field a team that isn't scuppered through suspension) to the season with the
stability of TC remaining. If and when we do gain promotion, it has to be on
the back of a solid season that we can take with us into the Premiership, not
what we're offering in some matches currently.
