The tailend of our season didn't exactly scream 'established premier league club' though, which is likely what he's getting at.

I can't say West Ham seem to achieve much more than us, despite coming in and paying the price. They spend so much money but struggle as much, if not more than us.

We are the same, they have more potential and prestige but keep ruining it to much hilarity lol

8th Season in the top flight.
Only 9 clubs have been in the Premiership longer than us.
A squad packed full of internationals with plenty of premiership experience, many players bought for £10m+, 9th highest wage bill. No longer odds of for relegation every season.

I'd argue that we are an established premiership club.

Over the years some really big clubs have flirted with the drop. Including Spurs, Everton, Villa, Newcastle, Man City, Leeds and Blackburn. Leicester realised they needed to act quickly shortly after winning the title. It's never something that can be taken for granted and leadership must always be pushing the club forward.

At the moment it's been noted where we are at the point where everything is beginning to drift. Without income generated from a stadium expansion I'm not sure if Parish knows what to do next. Stoke, West Brom, Birmingham, Portsmouth, Charlton, and Fulham all this kind of position. There's no real blue print for the Board to follow to take us onto the mythical next step.

This club is where is because it’s a f***ing shambles.

Have a chairman as tight as they come won’t spend try’s do it all on the cheap.

A manager who is so set in his ways we can’t evolve

And American investors who add absolutely SFA to the club,

That's definitely a very relevant question, and one that, when our form dips, I don't like to think about
