After 2 successive promotions we got relegated twice on the trot and ended up back where we started in league 1.
How pissed off would you be

Brilliant. It w/ fill my cup with happiness. Who wants to be supporter of a team built on a chequebook, with NO relevance to where I live or love? Let me go to Walsall, Yeovil, Sheffield, Torquay, Southend, Aldershot, Tranmere, Rotherham etcetera and really have a good day out. There's where the real football happens.
You mean, do three quarters of a Northampton Town, eh..? You're a bit of a pessimist on the quiet, aren't you. I saw in the Story thread you had Saints relegated to the Championship.
To answer your question: I'd be mightily pee'd off, but if you're going to ask that, I'll counter it by asking how you'd feel if Saints beat all-comers to win the Premier League..?
See..? Two can play at that game..!
I would say to myself;
"The moving finger writes, and having writ moves on.
Nor all thy piety nor wit
Can turn it back to change a single line..."
In other words, if that's our fate, so be it. Doubt it will be though.

That sort of thing just doesn't happen these days.
