I don't know to be honest. I would hazard a guess and say they haven't

been promoted any time in the past 20 years. They always cut their cloth accordingly. The fans demand less. Don;t know - just putting it out there.

Look at Bradford, Sheff Wed, Ipswich, Southampton, Swindon etc etc. Teams who tasted a bit of the big tiome recently, and have sufferered a big fall as a result.

        Ipswich have hardly suffered a "big fall"... (NCFC) - Rofl_Harris, Oct 1, 14:39:06

        don't get me started on the Wankademy!! (NCFC) - Rofl_Harris, Oct 1, 14:44:08
        
        Agreed - it just doesnt work for us.Possibly partly our fault, but main reason is location (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 1, 14:45:24
        
        I'm talking financially. Which is where I thought the question came from (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 1, 14:40:26
        
        and Blackpool, Plymouth, Swansea... (NCFC) - Rofl_Harris, Oct 1, 14:35:00
        
        I dont think Sheff Wed and Southampton are in any better (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 1, 14:37:34
      - So is Cullum not realistic or are you still blinded by the Waghorn spin??? (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 1, 14:27:30
        
        WHo knows? As far as I know they are out LOOKING for cash (NCFC) - megson, Oct 1, 14:31:03
        
        Fine but put simply would your definition of LOOKING for cash (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 1, 14:37:37
        
        I'm sure they may well do if they have to, (NCFC) - megson, Oct 1, 14:47:11
        
        Well it's frustrating that the full details haven't come out. (NCFC) - Small, Oct 1, 14:46:19
        
        that's ?20m with strings attached (NCFC) - blindasabat, Oct 1, 14:44:20
        
        To be fair (NCFC) - Rofl_Harris, Oct 1, 14:50:44
        
        "we should take it and ask questions later!!" (NCFC) - blindasabat, Oct 1, 14:59:41
        
        Maybe that was a bit extreme... (NCFC) - Rofl_Harris, Oct 1, 15:16:48

        they have held preliminary talks with him which came to nothing (NCFC) - blindasabat, Oct 1, 14:54:42
        
        Yes that is possible but does not fit with the various quotes from the parties (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 1, 14:57:46
        
        maybe i missed some quotes then (n/m) (NCFC) - blindasabat, Oct 1, 15:03:41
        
        Yes. Now a simple question to you: would you speak to a billionaire again (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 1, 14:50:19

        but we don't know what he wants for the 20mill also (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Oct 1, 14:42:52
        
        "shiny 20m for players statement". It was headline in the EDP - it must be true. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 1, 14:44:26
        
        No - (NCFC) - CB41, Oct 1, 14:41:28
