    You’re right, people need to get a grip and focus on what we’ve won and not on the performance indicators from the top to the bottom of the club that show a decline over the past couple of seasons. Let me point some out;

    You mention laughing at that mob yet we lose against them twice and when we win it’s by a single goal.

    We finish the last seasons league campaign with a narrower margin than the seasons before.

    We don’t qualify for the CL two season in a row reducing our potential income and coefficient for following seasons.

    We ship 4 goals at home against Cluj throwing away an away goal advantage.

    In regards to squad improvements, we end up with severe weaknesses due to a repetition of badly managed transfer windows.

    Winning trebles, three of them in a row is no doubt a huge feat and and achievement to be proud of, but what’s on the horizon if the decline continues....

    Please feel free to enlighten me if I’m missing something that shows we’re improving both domestically and in Europe.

    Or we can just ‘keep the faith’ that the board will buck that trend and adequately strengthen the playing squad in the precious few weeks we have left of this transfer window to reassert our dominance.

    Oh and let’s hope the lack of participation in the Champions League doesn’t have a negative influence on attracting quality players and even more so, doesn’t demotivate some of the current players that signed with the belief they’d be playing in that elite tournament.

    Divine right to win trebles, nah, it’s more about wanting to see continuous improvement and that’s not been happening.

    10 in a row should be easy, that’s if we had a board who would invest in the side and buried the zombies before they died.

    We had the chance in WGS last window and Lawwell failed to bring in another forward and handed them 3 in a row and kept them afloat.

    Again during the 8 in a row the board * managers about and we had a one horse race for most of it.

    We should have back Rodgers more and then he left slowly downgraded each year and now we have come to this.

    If the board acted and strengthened properly we would be light years ahead and qualifying for the champions league every season with the champions route.

    But that’s not the case at all.

    Agree with that, but the sad reality is it’s hard to continually improve when your playing in the spl because when players do start improving and a team from a bigger league comes in for them they more often than not will leave and your usually back to square one

    That happens with near enough everyteam on the planet. That's why you're expected to go and replace sold players when it matters ie. Before qualifiers.

    The last 8 seasons will mean nothing if we * up this season. It would be embarrassing to lose out on 9/10 in a row to a team with a manager in his first job and a team full of free transfers and loans.

    You can't live off past achievements in football.

    The major concern is that Lenny cannot see his own mistakes.

    As much as I agree
    It’s always going to happen developed players moving on obvcourse, But this is we’re our club is caught out miles behind because as it seems we do not have a proper/Decent scouting team on board, Don’t even get me started on congreton all I will say is it was Attrocious for us to keep him in office when we knew fine well he was off to join Rodgers, he was kept for months so who was controlling Transfers etc he certainly wasn’t as there is no way he would have been gave the power with the club knowing he was offski to keep him on board was suicidal. DD needs to have a talk with Lawwell as that is on him and he seems to be getting to involved with transfers now he needs to take a step back and concentrate of sponsors etc. The whole situation needs a massive shake up as it’s costing us
