Drewks,
A lot of good points.
1, we are the Albion, we never do things the easy way, we have thrown away more cup semis than I care to count, should have beaten Ipswich and QPR when favourites, out played pompey but we’re cheated by the ref who did not give the Baros handball because it would be a red card as well (booked already for a handball) and their goal followed on from his cross.
2, TM inherited a squad that was capable of getting results, don’t know if it’s tactics, instructions or training but we are not taking our chances. How many teams have we outplayed this season and come away with one point or none. Can’t afford to give him much slack, the gap between the top two divisions is getting greater, we need to be there.
3, I hate the greed league with a vengeance, it is made up of 17 teams and they allow three teams to play with their ball for 9 months. The championship is a much better more competitive league. But we have to be a small fish in a big pond in order to get the funds to grow and eat smaller fish. We have not competed in the cups for years, we flirt with promotion but fail. I want a cup run, I want entertaining football. The way to get it is money, where’s the money, the greed league. There are smaller clubs than us in the prem, we should be there and at least competing in upper mid table. Sounds conceited I know but we have pedigree and history but currently no future.
And finally I would love the EFL to stick two fingers up at the FA and their gentleman’s club. Say we’re not promoting three teams and we’re not taking three relegated teams. Keep your same twenty teams, your league will go stale and we will give football back to the people, back to the fans. The top non league ( the national league ) could become division four.
