And that is my entire point.

Clubs the size of us, Bolton, Charlton, Blackburn, Wolves, Sheff Utd etc all have little periods in their history where they compete with the big boys. Ours was 86 - 95. But one thing is for certain, after a short period of success these clubs all return to their natural level.

Charlton, Blackburn, Bolton etc will all get relegated eventually.
