The gap between the teams coming down from the Championship and the rest is now so great that it is getting harder and harder to get promotion. Sheffield United and Bolton, Wigan and Blackburn, and potentially Sunderland and Barnsley can top our budget 2 or 3 times over. Despite yesterday's performance, Portsmouth and Luton are doing incredibly well to be right up there and it would be good to see one of them break the cycle of teams going straight back up.
But without the promotion bounce after coming up, and with the gap only getting bigger between the top and the rest, property seems to be the only way we could feasibly make the club sustainable. I don't think anyone would disagree, so I'm not sure why there is such silence on the matter? I appreciate that any specific details should remain confidential, but the basis of a plan wouldn't go amiss!
