Coventry have spent 30 years in the top flight during our continuing 4th division exodus but got suckered by s***e speculators. They will shake these time wasting clowns off soon and move forward.
MK are a new concept of football franchising but have in a very short time blaghed one of the most spectacular stadiums in England and won 2 promotions, one into the championship and a football league trophy, averaging gates pf over 10,000... A damned sight more than we have in 50 years of struggle.
Oxford again have played top flight football as recently as the 80s and won a major trophy, have a 12000 stsdium that will be expanded shortly as soon as they get control of their ground.
Cambridge United are a strange one, like us have shown little to no ambition into building up their club.. and have also been left in the wilderness.. I'll give you Cambridge, like us should be doing shed loads better.
You can not compare MK to us or take their gates seriously because they near enough pay people to attend !! MK . As everyone knows , have been seriously bank rolled by individuals and by local government .
Of all your examples , Oxford are the fairest comparison and they have suffered similar ups and downs to ourselves. Their recent downs have been far worst and their recent ups have been arguably better. We have been consistently average !
