I’ve said on many occasions before that I don’t think we’ll have many more chances of a great escape.

Which poster does that bring to mind?

More seriously, let's not forget that in the space of six seasons starting with Holloway in 2012/13 we've had eight managers. I think it's a bloody miracle against that background that we've stayed in the Premiership at all. As to who, if anybody, is to blame for that turnover, it seems pretty obvious that it's been partly down to managers making unrealistic demands for money to spend on players. Others may blame the board for not supplying that money.

If we go down, lose our best players and haven’t made any progress at the club towards our footballing philosophy because we’ve been too busy fire fighting. The 6 “never had it so good” years will count for nothing.

What, it only counts if it lasts forever?

This is easily our longest spell in the top division. With our low bar for success, of course this is a great era for the club. And will be whether we get relegated in the next few seasons or not.
