    Good luck to em. Hard for me to be jealous when our only big successes (FA Cup, Promotion to top division) were all accomplished against the odds. Honestly would prefer any future success we have to be achieved by modest means and hard work again not a rich sugar daddy.

    We reached an FA Cup semi final, beating the likes of Liverpool and Chelsea en route whilst using Odejayi, Van Homoet and other below average footballers.

    That’s a fairytale.

    I don't begrudge them. Especially when you see Rob Mac's passion for grassroots sport. He chose a down on its luck old mining town with long standing football club. We would've fit the same criteria.

    As other have said its not a real fairytale.. but good luck to them!
