it is given less significance because money has become more important than trophies

simple as that. The problem is I won't be romanticising in a few years time about how Norwich made a net profit from staying in the Premier League. I would like to tell him about that day we went to Wembley and won a cup though. Smaller clubs than us have won cups in recent years, one of them even find themselves playing in two divisions lower than us so it isn't all sunshine and rainbows thereon after but it is glorious to have those days and obviously with Norwich those days are always going to be very few and far between but we live in hope as fans, but it seems to me the club isn't even interested in any of this and hasn't been for twenty years.

        winning a cup doesn't make a difference on the league really (NCFC) - Brandonio, Sep 24, 18:42:13
        
        This is what irritates me most. It's hardly even that much commitment for clubs (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Sep 24, 19:06:57

        yep, it's unfairly judged as being a distraction when it could be great (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Sep 24, 19:55:32
