I don;t buy this "we got promoted too early" business though. Indeed i'm not sure people haven't just made up this 5 year plan thing because I can't ever recall hearing Webber say that?
We may have gone up quicker than anyone expected but I don;t think our masterplan was to go up in year 3 under Farke because that would somehow make staying up any easier or change the financial position.
Fact is that if we hadn't got promoted last season we would have been in the sh*t financially and selling more players so would have had to take another step backwards.
Having got up, I think you have to try and take the opportunity because you have no guarantee that you will get another one in the near future.
