I think that penny dropped for many of us years ago. I’ve argued before that we are possibly exceeding expectations by not going out of the league altogether at some point. There are some that say that by developing the ground and infrastructure we would ensure success? Well I’m afraid that’s nonsense as well. The truth is that no matter the circurmstances you can still suffer decades of decline? If you look at the so called big clubs with associated crowds that are currently in league one (or in Portsmouth’s case last season 2) why anyone thinks otherwise is beyond me? That being said the reverse is obviously also true with clubs that that seemingly have no right to be in the prem making a good job of playing in it. I used to see Sean Dyche quite regularly at the garden centre near the Queen Eleanor. Pop up there and if he’s still a regular ask him the secret? Failing that there’s always hope, we’ve done it before you know?
Its this all or nothing attitude that Thomas is trying to instill in our heads but at no point looking for the achievable  middle ground..
How bad would it be for our club to play in a more professional atmospheric stadium of 12000 built gradually season by season, that has all the amenities you expect  at our level and an extra 2 or 3000 more regularly turning up to watch?
Yes we wont ever get back to what is now the premiership, who cares as long as we can be the very best with what we have and that could easily see us challenging for and playing  in the championship... Its all there to be done easily,  we just need a little direction and lot less belittling from those with alternative agendas perhaps.
