it's a fair point - certainly there is a lack of perspective at times

some fans weren't even happy when we finished 11th a few years ago.

By the same token though, if we are over-achieving in the league given our size, is it fair to say we are under-achieving in the cups? Perhaps our failure there is where the true disappointment should be.
