Quote DMF="DMF"We are going up. But I am absolutely dreading it in the PL. I don't think we have the structure to stay up. We certainly do not have the players. Hopefully we spend decent money (do we even have it available?) on some rea quality who can keep us in the PL for the first season and we can build from there.
Though I am absolutely dreading it.'"
Nothing to dread if we go up. We've got a totally different ownership model now with serious £££. As Tad says, we're the 6 wealthiest club in England with the 9ers (now it just depends on how much of the purse strings they open or can open that will be key). FFP in it's current format caught out Forrest but they snook through it and now are very well established). I think we will have enough ££ firepower to stay up and our home form will be key, Elland Rd will be on fire.
I'm confident we can get up automatic now and i think the players are too, but, big next 3 games coming up. If we come out of those in good shape we're as good as up. I'd say 7 more wins gets us at least 2nd place. That win also last night really sends a message out to Sheff U and Burnley that we are going to take some stopping, it will have knocked them both.
