When you consider the size of the city, the size of the stadium, the 42k we took the Wembley, the years in the top flight, the big name players we had, founder members of the PL etc, then yes I do think we've underachieved historically and are playing far below our level. I know some fans dislike the "entitlement" that comes across in such statements but if we got relegated to National League South and moaned were were too low down, you'd still have people using the "we've no divine right to be in any league" line.

The size of the stadium is an indicatiion of the depth to which the club has subsequently fallen. Highfield road was a lesser stadium but had we stayed there we might still be in the championship. The ricoh stadium , in our case, is relevant.
