We use to be a tier 3 side that would pop into T2 now and again.
Looking like we are T4 that pops into T3 now and again.

We have certainly not made any forward progress on or off the pitch in the last five years.
The ONLY potential positive is that we have our own training ground. Hopefully that will help the team long term.

The ground has shifted because the PL just gets stronger and stronger and is now a standalone league. To me, the Championship is the old Div 1, which puts us in our rightful place in Div 3 with the occasional flirt with Div 2.

Which fits with what you are saying I think |

I understand where you're coming from, and agree the PL is stronger with the amount of overseas players, which cascades down through the leagues. But this shouldn't affect which league we find ourselves in. There are still 92 teams (okay, teams come and go) - and we should still be Tier 2 --> Tier 3, with those better players cascaded down to us. |
