What I really don't like is the sense of entitlement when playing clubs like Preston

It only takes two mins to look at their recent results and see that they're a decent team.

But even if they hadn't been on a good run, a lot of ignoramus fans think we should be winning easily. It doesn't make for a great match day experience.

We had the same treatment when we came up from league 1, other clubs expected to beat us and we all know what happened next.

Oh well. It won't change until we have a period of actually being s**t again. Then when we cease to be s**t people won't take it for granted.

Inevitably, we will have an extended stay in the championship at some point.
