    it’s a time honoured not606 tradition to commend the intelligence and insightfulness of any post that concurs with one you’ve just written yourself

    Lot’s of philosophising on here today. We’re bricking it aren’t we? Big match today.

    Or because Exeter away is their cup final. Sold out, kids leaning over the advertising boards to get a proper view. The atmosphere is electric, they score (I seem to remember Watkins scoring?), the place goes wild. They hold on and are delighted with the scalp, we dust ourselves down and go again.

    No, I don’t think it was about being the richest (if that even was a thing with cuddly Ken holding the purse strings). I think it was about being closer to the game and team I fell in love with :emoticon-0148-yes:

    I think what we’re all saying is there was the excitement, anticipation, expectation hope etc. of promotion whereas now we know there is no chance of us ever winning the premier league title so the best we can get is to avoid relegation and make up the numbers, i.e. become a Brighton

    Can’t speak for Jammy but personally I prefer us to be in the PL. Took us long enough to get there.

    **** the Championship and League One. We’re obviously the biggest club when we’re down there so where’s the satisfaction in winning a few more games than when we’re in the PL.

    Need to strive to be the best we can be otherwise what’s the point?

    I just feel the PL is sterile and only 3 or 4 sides can actually win the league. TBH I'm not bothered where we play as long as I have a team to support. FOREVER AND EVER WE'LL FOLLOW OUR TEAM.<party>
