Even in the "dark wilderness years" I was content if the players performed to a standard I expected. Obviously my expectations were quite low when we had likes of Stuart Wardley on the pitch. So, even though we were stumbling about in the third tier I was relatively content; however limited Wardley was at least he was given it his best.
Today, I think it's justified to feel slightly miffed at where we are given the calibre, experience and earning-power of our squad.... my personal view is that we have under-performed in too many games and thus I'm disappointed and feel let down. Suggesting I should be grateful or happy today cos we were rubbish 10/20/30 years ago seems to be an odd way to look at things.... I accept there has to be some sort of context today and appreciation of how far we've come but that don't mean that current team have a permanent immunity from censure or criticism
