what with the Premier League being so weak

Mon Jan 28, 2013 9:15 am

this season, teams being dumped out of cups by championship, league 1, 2 and even non league teams (luton) i'm starting to believe we will be ok next season if we make it. There can't be much of a gap these days i guess.... ;)

fa cup has lost its appeal, its a distraction to most teams now, if it had a champions league spot then things would be different

We ain't Premier League.

We are a championship club.

The only thing we should concern ourselves with is trying to get another 3 points on Saturday. :ayatollah:

You're assuming your up already :roll:

Also as someone else said, both cups have lot their appeal, a cup competition you can earn £3m tops (slightly more for the FA Cup), the Premier League it can be anything up to £65m + higher commercial revenue

All that said, I'm glad we get the chance to compete in the COC Final with Europe on offer for the winners.

Far too early to even think about it.

If the players had that attitude, we'd face another season in the Championship.

By all means, talk about it when we're up - but no earlier.

The Premier League has to be weaker this season. It's not FA Cup or League Cup results which prove that, it's the fact a bunch of shit gypo's can win 2-0 at places like Arsenal and Chelsea.
