I love that all of a sudden Mick McCarthy is a fucking hero to them, when in reality they chased him out during their miraculous 15 point season.
I genuinely hope they never return to the PL, quite honestly it’s not their level imo. They have 2, maybe 3 of the top 5 worst seasons in the history of the top flight and this was accomplished during the PL era. What’s the highest they’ve managed in the PL? 7th? Other than that and probably a top ten finish under Bruce they’ve battled the drop in every season they’ve been in the league. They can moan about Short but the bloke has poured money in for a decade, think Niall Quinn dodges a lot of flak here as he was in a role which oversaw the spunking of a huge amount of money and they’ve spiralled ever since.
I know the mackems love to see themselves as some beloved club to fans of other sides but in actual fact many people saw them as the shit that wouldn’t flush for a fucking decade. They had a bit of a link to Man Utd for a few year due to Keane and gleefully taking random shite from Man Utds fringes like O’Shea and Brown, then for some bizarre reason they did the poznan after losing to Man Utd when Aguero thudded in the late winner against QPR and now the man Utd fans seem to get a bit of a laugh from the tramps plight.
In short, they’re a trampy, horrible club that seem to only come up on the radar of other fan bases when they randomly give them grief in their hope to get some reflected glory from another teams success. I’m fucking buzzing to see everything catch up to them and they’re now getting exactly what they deserve, I hope they keep sinking like a stone.
I hope they do approach Mick McCarthy, he snubs them, the external debtors pull the plug and plunge them into administration, and they end up bottom of League One.
