Really interesting article from Sunderland fans comparing their situation with ours :

This season has been a pretty Meh... season for everyone but we're still a well-run club with a lot of potential upside.

 

Rather be in our shoes than a lot of other clubs.

 

It's good to be considered a well run, ambitious club and admired for our 'stability', but I remember Gordon Strachan saying he admired another team - Leicester - for the same reasons and because they were frequently comfortably mid-table.

 

Fortunes change easily. Not long after Gordon made that remark we were relegated and Leicester too were back in the championship.

 

Let's not go back to the bad days of changing managers too regularly. Nothing good will come of that.
