On that - "one day". Yes, we did go for it

I'll repeat what I have said many times on here before, but the Championship (and below) are league absoultely littered with clubs that "went for it", and failed.

A handful have benefactors richer than ours that keep them as yo-yo clubs. The rest suffer the hangover for years. This is not just our problem, depsite our board's failings.

Analyse every other club in a similar position to ours, and an equally stong case could be made for an 'incompetant board', a 'lack of ambition' etc.

Sooner the Euro league comes, the better. Give us our football back.
