I think the past few decades have been to some extent enjoyable at times but it doesn't beat having top flight football at The Valley week-in, week-out in front of 40,000+ crowds and I wonder when are we going to get it back ?
I realise that you are being facetious in the light of the recent Curbishley thread but we did steadily decline after Seed arguably culminating in near extiction in 1984. It was long and drawn out with the occasional rally (63/4, 68/9, 75/6,76/7) but a combination of Gliksten's lack of investment and poor to average managers after Seed certainly didn't help. I'll put it like that!

It dont matter who you name it after, people will still call it the south stand.
Unlike The Cupboard End, that would never be called the north stand ; )
Lmao funny thread guys, I'm sorry if my other thread wasn't too liked for being a bit dated but it was the article I got given to write and just wanted you guys to see it and let me know what you thought of it.

Good idea - and surely better than naming one after Fred West.
And then they went to Chelski

Likewise our second major decline has proven Curbishley's removal was the start.
I just pray that the decline and utter despair over decades from after the Seed era are not matched in time by the current decline.
Wasn't it King Harold who went to Stamford Bridge?
Harry Crippps was always "H" or "'Arry Boy".
Just a boy, never a king.
Actually, we thought they were all winkers.
