It was over 17 years ago now!

If I had told you that day, 17 years from now we won’t have come back down since, would you have believed me?

I feel with Sam’s money and ambition, a lot of us probably had eyes on the prem anyway, especially after two promotions in three years plus the Leeds win. Everything was going well for us, but even so, I think most of us would have been delighted to hear that 17 years later we would still be up here. And even though I think based on our size as a club we should be a second tier club minimum, I still think it’s a great achievement that we’ve managed to stay up for going on two decades. Let alone having two promotions to the top flight.

Sorry if you believe in jinxes, just feeling proud!
