Premiership

[Goring Gull]

willwe be there within the next five years?

 

[bristolseagull]

Its called the Premier League, and no.

 

[sam86]

No.

 

[The Grockle]

7 or 8 years perhaps but unlikely. By the time we are in a position to push for the top flight, we'd probably need to spend 10's of millions just to avoid imediete relegation.

Personally i'd be happy with upper mid table Championship football for a while, pushing for a play off spot in front of big crowds.

 

[The screamer]

premiership- premier league

champions league- championship

if you actually ment the champions league, that will never happen

 

[hopper_182]

10 years maybe.

 

[dougdeep]

I hope not.

 

[wigman]

No.but hope im wrong.

 

[Beach Hut]

I hope not.

And why not ?

 

[in_the_sand]

willwe be there within the next five years?

Been watching those flying pigs again?

 

[Conkers]

Perhaps a chance within 10 years but not 5

 

[throbinson]

Nope

 

[defrocked priest]

naw

 

[Guy Fawkes]

There is always a chance but very unlikely. You never know, we could be there in 3 years time or we never make it to the top flight again.

If football was predictable (top 3 of Premier League aside) no-one would ever watch it

 

[Manthorpee]

stupid thread

 

[Palace15]

isthmian league premier division?

 

[Guy Fawkes]

isthmian league premier division?

no, Palace (cheating scum) won't be around for long enough to reach their rightful place in that division. Unfortunately you are going to be wound up by the administrators in the next couple of months.

I don't understand why so many people are certain that we won't be, we've got a mega rich chairman and there are loads of clubs pushing for it now (Cardiff, Swansea, brizzle city, not to mention Reading), who were on a par with us a couple of years back. Ok it may not happen but I certainly see us being in the championship playoffs in the next five years.

Agree with that. If Reading and Hull can get there why can't we. Not saying we would last more than a season but you have to aim as high as you can.

Absolutely, not to mention Wigan, who I believe we're in a similar position to, except:

-we will have an even nicer stadium
-we have far more history
-we have more fans
-we have a much bigger catchment
-we come from a place where players will want to live
