You might as well get used to it

Yes I know teams like Wigan can win the FA Cup but history shows it to be a rare event.

The fact is for clubs like ours, success is getting promoted to the Premier league and staying there. It's the same for nearly everyone except about 7 teams.

The trill is in the chase
