When did it start - first game of the second stint with NP. That 3-0 win against Palace with two Gallagher beauties. It wasn't plain sailing after that obviously with Deeney gate etc but it was assuring to know he was back at the helm and the right man to steer us back to the Prem. Mid-points I'd argue there were two peaks - each significant in their own right. The title win and everything that would immortalise us in the public eye. The second being the FA Cup win. Equally unprecendented and special after everything we'd been through. I really believed at the time it showed we could evolve as a club beyond becoming "another Blackburn". I'd argue the downhill where it really hit home was immediately after that losing at Stamford Bridge in that crucial Champions League qualification game. Perez missing that sitter to level it. I think deep down we knew after that we'd blown the Champions League for a second season in a row needing a favour out of our hands. And the realisation the chance with this team may have gone with some inevitable departures. After that we've had the general spiral downwards with the few positive results/runs. Painful viewing seeing the likes of Newcastle, Villa, Forest and West Ham with the conference league becoming what could and should have been us

Should have sent Danny Ward then

A club in supposedly the greatest league in the world (for now) and couldn't even negotiate a free transfer in. That tells you all you need to know

It's a running track record though isn't it. Last few windows have been poor. It's like blaming traffic on the road for missing a meeting with your boss this morning when you've been consistently late at work for the last 3 days. Not a great look

Doesn't bode well for us then. Another unhappy player in the camp

Was wondering what had happened to him. Better he's playing I guess even though can't see a future here

But not a second more (let alone 14!)

We've got zero identity on and off the pitch. Neither a family club nor a corporate machine. A bit of nothing really and I'm slowly falling out of love with football in the current climate

The shades are off, it was actually Noel Hunt

Currently manager of Leyton Orient. Could well be on the horizon the way we're going!

Might well be the shirt sponsor next season! Imagine the freebies at the ground being those hotel style shampoo sachets

Probably does nick it. Little bit lucky but isn't clear cut I guess

Ref should book himself there

Still remember Vardy humiliating him for that goal. Criteria to sign players here of course

At least we can boo those EFL guys again

Championship again ole ole

Iheanacho at Middlesbrough and Schlupp at Celtic. What a world

Sounds plausible but would indicate Rudkin's actually done some work!

Jokes aside I'd play him over Justin

Edit: the opening sequence about giving our budget away is accurate

Not taking into account the fact the EFL can now punish us

Another Tavares situation. What is he up to these days?
