I haven't said anything is facts, I've given you my opinion and reasons why the league wasn't there for us. It seems your whole argument is 'but Ipswich'.
Tbh if you genuinely think the league was there for us I think you're delusional

My argument is we were in a much better position before pre season. We've made ourselves worse rather than better. Ipswich example is there for rlthose that think that we had no chance against Leeds et Al.

We’ve got no one to hold the ball up front making runs in the channels letting the defenders know they’ve been in a game. How many touches did burstow have? It’s so frustrating.

To be fair to you, I remember us bringing in players like Stern John and Brian Deane in the past and they made an impact.

Burstow has done absolutely nothing, and to think we were led to believe he was an exciting Chelsea prospect. He's shown nothing at all, he looks as though he doesn't even want the ball.

Well thanks for telling us exactly who's going to finish where. You'll find you aren't quoting facts as we've still a while to play and those players at Leeds and Southampton have them out of top two.

You may not like it but as we've seen many many times in football the favourite side doesn't always perform and we had a better base to chose from, until we ripped it up for this seasons offering.

The only reason we ended up where we were last season was Dialo. There is no arguing with that, it is a fact.

Thats different to saying the league was there for us. That was never the case. It would have taken major investment and spending money we don't have.

Except for the other players we had, which is also a fact. If you mean he dug us out of crap when strikers were out your right. Much as Clarke is doing to a more depleted squad this year.

We are playing against teams with Premiership budgets, we either spend more than we are allowed under FFP and risk getting sanctioned or we create our own wealth which takes a lot longer than the ADHD supporters we have can cope with .

Rotherham with a huge Premier league budget, I've supported the lads for 50 years, I am well aware of how money has f**ked football, I'm not saying we need to spend fortunes but a club like ours should be able to beat a team adrift at the bottom of the league. We keep hearing about a project hut hage heard very little from the people carrying out the project

There’s an attitude problem with players from big successful clubs. They think they have made it big in the game without putting the hard yards in at a lower level. The youngsters that succeed are the ones who are level headed and willing to learn during their loan periods.
