I don't think we can get back there again, unless the financial fair play rules kick in and a lot of clubs fall on hard times, when we will be very well positioned. We could hope to win a cup and get into Europe but winning the league is unrealisitic. I hope we can get to win a cup but we have to run the club soundly to get there. My personal belief is that a manager makes very little difference to the long term position of a club.
I wonder where we would have been had we got into the Prem in the early days with teh likes of Keane, Lescott etc. On 18 October 2011 14:41, Paul Crowe <[email protected]> wrote: > I respect your view Steve but luckily I have seen us compete in Europe, > challenge for the League finishing in the top 6, win 2 x league Cup’s, get > to semi-final’s of the FA Cup and be genuinely feared by the likes of Man > Utd and Liverpool!
