Why are these clubs doing a lot better than us with there small budgets and fan base? Fleetwood , Accrington, Stevenage , Morecambe and Barrow .

Two of those irrelevant clubs are where we want to be.

Why not expand it to the entire 72 club EFL then.
No one is interested in them. The Premier League is the future.

I'm sure they are relevant to their supporters. All clubs are relevant to someone.

Incidentally all those you mention are currently doing better than us except one, who have done the double over us. So what does that make us ?

I known Norman is trolling, but I can’t help myself here.

Who in earth is he to call any club irrelevant? Those clubs have all achieved great success based on merit and fully deserve to be where they are. I’m not bothered if they have rich benefactors or not, because we know better than anyone, more money does not guarantee success.

It really annoys me when I tell people who I support and they look down their noses at us and mock the level of football we play at, as they sit in front of their TV’s every weekend supporting some team they hardly ever see live (if they ever have at all).

What an odd turn of phrase

Even non league clubs like Notts and the Cheats are relevant to someone.

Of course he’s trolling.

Had he said unfashionable instead of irrelevant that would have been more accurate.

Most clubs that do well, they have stability and deal in what can be achieved, and not chase rainbows, poor clubs like a jig-saw puzzle put one piece in at a time, having a handful of pieces in one hand is only confusing, simply put, pick the right man for the job and just give him time, aim league status and evaluate 2020/21

Anyone seen Michael Palins comedy short about supporting a crap team? Sums it up for me. If it’s your club it isn’t irrelevant Norman. Mansfield Town are irrelevant to most supporters.
