Ford, by any chance?Years ago my dad drove us home from The Home Guard Club in Leamington, someone asked him to turn the radio on, and it wasn't there. Unbelievably our car keys had fitted an almost identical car and we were nearly back in Cubbington before we noticed. Returned and found the owner drinking in a club nearby (think it might have been the old Telecomms club?) Late 1970s. Our car was parked about 4 vehicles from his.
"We are at this level because we deserve to be"
No we don't deserve to be, not the fans, nor the club, it deserves a lot better! That just sounds like you've accepted what SISU have done to us like it was nothing!
Spot on. Also accepted that we were more likely to get relegated from L1 than promoteThe d. Plenty of it down to the owners but plenty down to players and management.Really?.....to me it just sounds like hes accepted the fact that we have been relegated 3 times since being in the top flight........something a few others still really struggle with.....
Suspect this could get circular (and I understand the point you're trying to make!) but of course players and management is down to the owners at the end of the day, too.Spot on.

Yeah.....but other clubs have achieved promotions & success despite their shitty owners......so whilst the odds are definitely stacked.....shit owners don't always guarantee shit performance.....
Took 37 years for us to get relegated once, took SISU less than 10 years to get us relegated twice... Seems people struggle to accept that...Really?.....to me it just sounds like hes accepted the fact that we have been relegated 3 times since being in the top flight........something a few others still really struggle with.....

Doesn't guarantee... but helps!Yeah.....but other clubs have achieved promotions & success despite their shitty owners......so whilst the odds are definitely stacked.....shit owners don't always guarantee shit performance.....
They must do, they are still looking at League One tables.
Think again you have missed his point, he clearly has accepted we are in League 2.
I've missed no point, this guy said we deserved to be here...
I said we don't.
He's also said it's down to players and management, who brought those managers in to get us relegated twice?

Players and management is all down to who SISU employed to get them in, is it not? Why be an argumentative twat on every post you see?As you reading the same thing? He said:
It's just you took the first part out to suit.
We have no right to be in any league based on a name / winning the FA cup in 87, sadly.
The club, and it's fans deserve to be a league two club because...
I still can't get my head around people who were angry and outraged at losing to Forest Green and Accrington. We are League Two. They are League Two.It's nothing to do with fans is it and what they "deserve"? Same could be said for every team outside the prem that their hardcore fans deserve to be higher.
The club deserves to be there because we didn't get enough points last season.
Again, there is no divine right to be in a particular league because the fans say so. The same as we have no right to win a game because we are called Coventry City and the other team is called Mansfield etc.

Take the points above. But "The Managers and players have underperformed" is a bit like trying to get a leopard to change its spots. There is a number of those players who are still here and not doing it in L2. Rather than "underperforming" I would point to "not good enough".I still can't get my head around people who were angry and outraged at losing to Forest Green and Accrington. We are League Two. They are League Two.
I think to some people, in their heads we are a Championship side. There is no shame in losing to Accrington Stanley.
Had we played them in the cup and were a couple of divisions higher, then yes, of course it's embarrassing, but we are where we are and this is akin to us being in the Premier and losing to Palace or Burnley.
We deserve to be where we are as a team because we haven't been good enough. Yep, the owners have contributed greatly, but we have also had players and managers here who have vastly underperformed and even had a manager who wasn't a manager at all.
Agreed. The team is fairly sh*te, the managers have been sh*te and the owners are the mains sewer that runs along the A444, clogged with fat balls and sanitary towels.I still can't get my head around people who were angry and outraged at losing to Forest Green and Accrington. We are League Two. They are League Two.
