    Seriously ? You happy with the fact that you have spent the last, correct me if I'm wrong, 13 years stagnating in the 2nd tier ?

    Northamptonshire is a cricket county, and long may it be so.

    The aim is to get promotion, but as I've said before the journey is better than the time spent in the money pit.

    All I actually said was that the Championship is never boring......didn't mentioned anything about Ipswich not being relegated from the division for over ten years......

    I hope you enjoy your time in the premier league.

    KIO's on a bit of a buzz now (and who can blame him?), seeing his team promoted at Wembley of all places, and good luck to him too, KIO's a genuine supporter of his team. He'll soon enough have the stuffing knocked out of him as the likes of Chelsea, United, City, Stoke and Palace tear them new ones next season...but for the moment I'd give him his day, every dog has one...;)

    ........You'll have no chance of promotion.

    Hence, you are not a big fish in a small pond.

    Better than being a minnow that will get its arse handed to it every week.

    You don't believe that anymore than I do.

    We'll be fine, I do believe there is a good chance we will finish positionally higher than your own apes in the Championship.

    And you wait and see how much the Budgie board changes next season Warky...they were a good laugh this season as they were the last time they were in the Championship, once they're in the Prem and are getting stuffed week in week out even the best of their posters rapidly lose that good ol' Norfolk humour, wait and see...<ok>

    I'm sure you laughed plenty last Monday, and the Saturday before.

    Put it this way, there will be far more of your lot wanting rid of the the chimp McCarthy next season than our thoroughbred Alex Neil. Again, you know that as well as I do because alot of you turned on him last season when it started off dodgy.

    Unlike your own manager, which will be thoroughly uninteresting.

    Get that chimp out of your club, he's taking you backwards.

    The jury is still out on Alex Neil IMO ......I think the players didn't like NA so couldn't be arsed to perform thus getting him the boot....AN comes in and the players realise that it's do or die and tbf they turned things around and got the results but was that due to AN or just that the players commited after NA.

    Weighty, you or I, anyone with a modicum of footballing knowledge could have managed the Budgies to promotion last season with the squad they have, it would have hardly been rocket science...

    Be gentle with them KIO it must be hard now that the GAP is £120 million wider, I'm sure old Marcus can cover that
