Ian Royal S'not just about this season. We'll see how Saints (and we) are doing in two, three, five, ten years time

Yeah! We'll see! One of these centuries a spending team is going to f/ck up, and if we are still alive we'll be there to rub their faces in it!
PieEater There's also an assumption that we as fans actually want to stay up.
Personally I'd much rather be in the championship, seeing games were we have a chance of winning and paying less, rather than a lot of the non-entertaining dross we're currently served.

SPARTA Couldn't give a phuck about Southampton or any other football club. This is my club, and they will always be no matter what standard we play at.
Anyway, LOLz etc.

royalZILLAAA Always rather be a Reading fan. Football fanhood is a weird mix of masochism and elation, I wouldn't rather be a fan of Man Utd or FC Winnersh or anyone in between.

Don't lie!

I'd rather be in the championship than watch the club sink without trace with a points tally in the mid 20s, but I'd rather see us as a bottom half premiership side than a top half championship one.
I do fully understand the club's philosophy of only signing the "right" players for the club, and I actually agree with it (we don't have a chairman happy to pump millions in, and even TSI said from the outset that wouldn't be their policy either) but it would be nice if there was just some hint of recognition that when a club is in the premier league, it has to raise the bar a bit, and not sign players on the basis that they'd probably do a good job in the championship.
Off on a bit of a tangent, I did ask this question to a couple of mates at the Crawley game, but who would you say was the most expensive Reading player who was actually a success while here?

Idealmelonhead so 6 more points is what 30 million gets you is it?
Federici alone has cost us 6 points this season, no need to chuck 30 million at it, a £2M goalkeeper would do us nicely.
