Interesting comment from O’Neill on 19:47 - Jun 10 by itfcjoe | I think top 6 probably was our target, with a 'stretch target' of top 2. We were coming down as the worst Championship side in a decade, and up against likes of Rotherham who know the division inside out, & Pompey and Sunderland who had just picked up the best part of 90 points in the league. Top 2 was a big ask, but we made such a good start - I think most fins would have bitten your hand off for top 6 before a ball was kicked as that was seen as par. |
Top Two should have been the target, especially with Bolton coming down with no team as such. Realistically the best situation for a relegated team for many years. It only gets harder the longer you are down, and next year, will have 3 relegated Championship teams to contend with. If top 6 was the target, it demonstrates the lack of ambition or accountability at the top. Disagree re most fans taking top 6 - not the ones that I know. |  |
