The thing is, I'm not actually saying that the Carling Cup win was shit and I'm certainly well chuffed that we won a cup, it was certainly needed and I hope we move onto better things.
I am not misunderstanding the point of the post, I completely agree that its a good thing, and whilst we are still developing our team to challenge, its completely good to have a few trophies on the way.
But saying that, we should now be challening for a champions league spot, 2 seasons finishing 5th and now a cup, yet we are still in the bottom half of the table.
Yes I know its been a weird season for us, and I expect us to be much better next year, although I don't think we will be challenging for that next year either, as we will need time for the team to bed in, and get used to the league (new players etc).
I would lvoe to see us win a domestic cup and the uefa cup with a strong league place.. that would be huge improvement for me, and increase outr profile at the same time.
