Fev's totally artificial exclusion from the original SL is the cause of all the problems IMO. There was absolutely no reason from a football point of view why they should not have been in the original SL, but manipulation from Lindsay etc meant they were excluded. A team that that very year were CC semi finalists, plus former champions, and CC winners. Had they been included and failed IMO there wouldn't have been a problem. Same goes for 1998. They lost the final somewhat controversially and Wakey were promoted. On false promises of a new ground and very dodgy financial data. And they somehow survived and have benefitted from that survival. That's it in a nutshell for me. Being the best team in the Championship in the 2010's but excluded hasn't helped matters. It all goes to prove that when you try to manipulate sports comps. there's usually trouble ahead. Watch out IMG.
