You know, the one that's moves through two division in successive seasons, or the team that stays at the top for over half a season or the one that goes on an amazing end of season run.
I understand we have come a long way but even with money to spend we never seem to be THAT team.
I remember being in the lowest division with Fulham and Wigan, they moved on up and we languished. I remember going toe to toe with QPR and Stoke in the 2nd division, we bought the best from Stoke, we left QPR behind when we won the play-offs and where are they both now. We then made the Championship and then consolidated forever whilst Norwich, Southampton and another team, whose name I cannot remember, came up and left us behind. There are then clubs that thrive in the Play-Offs (Palace I think) and then there are us.
Not up to ten games yet though so let's wait and see what this season has to offer. I'm hoping Brighton become the new Cardiff, with great starts and a poor mid season.
