Spot on with the paragraph about a mid table finish being acceptable progress but not necessarily our ambition for ever more.  Although Franks would just call you an idiot of course,

You don't go from being relegation candidates to qualifying for Europe in one season.  Well, at least not without a massive injection of funding.  So what we need is progress and I think we're seeing that.  It's when the progress stops that we need to have a re-think.

Absolutely right. How difficult is it to grasp this?

It's not, but since when has common sense had anything to do with "Franskey"

PS - he has heard of rhyming slang hasn't he?
