Harder for teams to stay up now after promotion? Easier for teams already there to stay?
Difficult question. A lot of statistics with regard to that and I don’t have it at hand. I think there’s been a few occasions where Fulham, Norwich, West Brom have been up and down. I think it’s harder – Fulham and West Brom have played some very good football. I don’t think it’s going to get any easier for teams in that bottom half. The league gets stronger, especially at the top. Harder for bottom half teams to compete. Teams who come up have good players and invest – you can’t accuse them of not spending. We’re aware that our position is great, but we must never take it for granted and assume nine seasons will lead to 10. Fulham, their situation is not so different to ours when I was there, written off many times and took 12 from 15 points. Hoping that they haven’t lost heart, go out and win the game to keep themselves in with a shout. You can’t dissassociate yourself with those years you spent at a club.
