I have worked out the league table for the last 3 seasons. For all the teams which have been in the division for the last 3 years. We are second, but we have by far the best away record (100 points away compared to Kiddie's 86)! Carry on doing what we are doing and we are bound to get promoted one day because we are consistently one of the better sides.

Team       P     Pts
Kidderminster     123     211
Grimsby     124     209
Wrexham     121     182
Gateshead     122     179
Forest Green     121     179
Braintree Town     121     179
Woking     122     175
Macclesfield     121     175
Lincoln City     120     163
Alfreton Town     120     154
Nuneaton     122     146
Southport     118     137
Dartford     120     133

Pretty irrelevant really. I'd rather be Crawley, Fleetwood, Newport, Luton, Cambridge and all the other teams that don't appear in your table because they've all been promoted.

Exactly. We could be top of Rob's table for another 3 or 4 years. That might make him happy but it will be disaster for us. We have to get promoted this season IMO, or it is over.

It depends what the budget is next season if we are still in this division. If we have a top 4 budget then we'll challenge at the top probably but if we had to set a budget  that reflected our true income then  it would certainly be a lot harder. We'd probably only get to the play-offs 1 in 3 or 1 in 4 seasons rather than more often that not like we are at the moment.

God this is tiresome.

Youre main (only) argument seems to suggest if we NEVER change manager or anything at all we will be promoted at some future date, maybe 2,3,5 10 years.

You can improve your chances you know..

I don't mind changing manager occasionally, but in practice we already have one of the best managers at this level. It would be hard to anyone else to be as consistent as PH, he's a steady perfomer. Someone more adventurous might improve our odds of a really good season where we might hit top spot, but the downside would be you'd be more likely to fail to finish in the top 5 altogether.

I'm just trying to show that over the long term we have been as good as anyone still in this division.

Just curious here but saying we have a top 4 budget doesn't gurantee anything in football. I wonder what Burnleys budget was for last season?

I suggest you look up the word 'Sycophant' Rob.  Quite frankly your sucking up to the person responsible for ruining the club I was once proud of is fu(king sickening.
