It simply isn’t attractive enough, except to the diehards, and that will deplete.
You cannot get blood out of a stone.
Fans ambition may not be matched by the club, because it is not at all cost. One post said we are not building something sustainable, of course we have. Financial.
Climbing football status is another thing.
