The miseries have been put down to all sorts of factors; the board,a poor recruitment policy, a selling policy, a succession of managers,ambition failure and much more.
Whatever the reasons we have been doomed it seems by that line “fortune’s always hiding,” certainly since I joined the ‘dark side’ ( lol) over 50 years.
To those of later generations any of us who can remember such a length of time will tell you the same.

There’s a great blog published in today’s Guardian recalling what went before and after the most successful season in our history -1985/86.

Somehow this season and immediate future feels different -if that’s correct then it’s about 60 years or more overdue.
