- Premier league was brilliant under Lambert. Had a go every game (NCFC) - earlydoors, Oct 23, 18:40:17
  - I think the EPL has changed since then. There were more teams you could have a go at (NCFC) - Bravo win or die, Oct 23, 18:54:13
    - One of their advantages though does seem to be our manager though (n/m) (NCFC) - earlydoors, Oct 23, 18:56:09
  - Yes and no. Ever since 2011/12, every time we've been in the PL, we've got worse (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Oct 23, 18:45:20
    - so it wasn't worst ever? (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Oct 23, 19:44:01
    - Pls define "our worst run in history" (you say from 2015-16) (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Oct 23, 19:07:54
      - Oh I'm sorry. Worst run in 70 years made everything perfectly fine. *rollseyes* (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Oct 23, 19:13:55
    - I think the quality of our squads has actually improved. (NCFC) - usacanary, Oct 23, 18:54:08
      - stomped Bournemouth reserves/youth (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Oct 23, 19:11:06
    - But Brentford have spent less than us over past couple of years (NCFC) - earlydoors, Oct 23, 18:47:34
      - So many teams do ok for one season. Look at Sheff U. It's so difficult to sustain (n/m) (NCFC) - Bravo win or die, Oct 23, 18:55:14
      - For now.... if they end up getting relegated its the same result. (NCFC) - usacanary, Oct 23, 18:51:56
        
        More fun journey though (NCFC) - CWC, Oct 23, 19:43:53
      - That's a good way of putting it. We had PTSD between 2005 and 2009 as well. (n/m) (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Oct 23, 18:48:55
        
        We also chose incredibly poorly in terms of managers as well (NCFC) - earlydoors, Oct 23, 18:55:09

    - Was hughton as bad as this? (NCFC) - CWC, Oct 23, 21:19:50
  - The gap is so much bigger now. (NCFC) - usacanary, Oct 23, 18:50:37
    - Brentford Watford Brighton Burnley Southampton Palace - Hardly huge clubs. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Oct 23, 18:55:36
    - That's incorrect. They are competing. Competiton is based (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Oct 23, 18:54:45
- If that is your feeling then why not go all out and drop (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Oct 23, 18:31:17
