we missed out on promotion last year (and the year before that ), which got me thinking........ in light of the new TV deal which comes into effect next season, http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2012/jun/13/premier-league-tv-rights-3-billion-sky-bt ....is it a blessing in disguise that had we gone up a year ago, and got relegated (probable IMO), we would have gone down at the worst possible time, losing out on that extra £14m and increased parachute payments...... our finances are always a worry, but look at the money ipswich are spending for a relegation battle: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22046689 looks like Mr Tans gamble is going to pay off big time..........
