    3 seasons of failure?

    OK, so I know I'm going to be labelled as a happy clapper, but here's my opinion:

    It was ridiculous, that we found ourselves in the premier league. If you'd have suggested it to ANYONE in 2018,2019 if would progress that far they would have had you sectioned. But we made it. It was surreal and we embraced it.

    When 2020 took over the emphasis was sustainability. We'd bitten off more than we could chew so many times previously and now we had owners that were more concerned with keeping the team alive long term than gambling on short term success. As far as I can see, EVERYONE was on board with this.
    All of a sudden, the new posters were insisting we spunk £100m on a new squad. We stuck with what we knew, we didn't give ourselves years of pain with unstustainable transfer fees and contracts. Burnley and Sheffield united did just this and both of them finished below us. That season we took it to the final game against all the odds. If we hadn't have had a defensive injury crisis unheard of in modern top flight football, it would have been different, if our captain hadn't have literally stopped living during a vital game it would have been different.

    I accept last season was a problem. It seems we held on to Edwards too long. It was clear he'd lost the dressing room and there was some completely unacceptable performances. The season finale at WBA, when in our own hands we shat the bed and deserved every negative comment we received.

    We have always been a streaky team. For me, this season has always been about stopping the rot. I said right from August that I would take 7th. I didn't expect it to be so heart breaking but I stick with my expectations.
    We've stopped the downward trend. We know there will be squad movement but let's embrace it. Our promotion season the crowd got us over the line several times. If we get behind the team we could be moving into a new stadium full guns blazing. Let's not focus on missed opportunities, but ways we can become a problem for others.
