Ironic point on a thread about perspective.

I fully appreciate that many older fans have seen bad times, but it's worth remembering that a lot of younger fans are watching their 4th relegation season in the space of a handful of years. Perspective is about relative importance, and I see far too many on here adopt a 'Johnny Come Lately' attitude when it comes to what people expect from the club, and hope for in terms of its future. People should try to consider what everyone goes through with the club and not turn everything into a regressive argument about the amount of suffering others have or haven't been through. Not everyone went through the war, rationing, winter of discontent, strikes, etc, so it's not as easy in a world of instant gratification to stomach endless relegations under the stewardship of a wealthy man you can't relate to, who won't stick any of his reported wealth into changing things. Suffering is relative.
