My other thought tonight is this , I've seen this club promoted to this level four times in my time .
The best two seasons following promotion were 1981/82 and 2016 / 2017 , on both occasions we kept the team who came up together .
Even the worst Barnsley side I've ever seen get promoted in 2005 / 2006 somehow managed to stay up although admittedly it was strengthened once the season began .
I understand players left the club and we had little choice but to let them go but FFS we have to be smarter than this , Andersen and Halme ain't anywhere near as good as Pinnock and Lindsay were the last time we were in the championship and they weren't any great shakes at that .
