What do you actually base this theory on?
Most supporters views changed when we signed the players in the summer. So, I assume your view is based on the additonal quality that these players have bought to the squad.
So please tell me the extra quality these players have which makes them better than the rest of the league?
Malaga - Odd signing. A player who has played most of his football at a level which is comparable to the French 5th division
Edge - Similar and certainly not someone you would say is better than the average League One defender
Kilbane - Aged players are a risk and he adds nothing
Brown - A third centre half signing who is probably in most supporters eyes 5th or 6th choice
Barton - Played 50 games for a poor League One club in 4 years and not played since a triple leg break
Ball - 3 goals in 38 league games
Jennings - Never played above this level
Elliot - Has a reasonable CV until you realise his job is to score goals
Fleck - based of a bad bunch but clearly has limitations
So which of these are not performing to their full potential. I would say they are doing exactly that.
The problem is you think we are a big club. We are not. Also you say we get bigger crowds so should have better players. Why? We are £40 million in debt so actually are a poor relation in the league.
Get real.
