The CapWestYorksRoyal This will sound disrespectful, but what you see now with Wycombe is about as good as it can get. Every club has their natural ceiling; ours is probably being like Brentford or Bournemouth, and it's the same for Luton with their new stadium.
Wycombe is a small town near London. At their high point, they're barely averaging 5k attendances. They could have a good season in the Championship like we did in the PL on 06/07, but long term simply staying in L1 is an achievement for them and there are limits to how long you can defy gravity. Luton is obviously a big step up, plus it's a well run club which is nearby. No need to change his kids' school. It makes obvious sense.
Was talking to a mate the other day about the three B's in the Prem and how well run those clubs seem to be. We've done it before and, once the joker's finally handed the reins over, there's absolutely no reason why it can't be done again. BTW WYR, your words 'there are limits to how long you can defy gravity' are so true.
The 3 Bs are part of a host of mid sized clubs who could be anywhere between where they currently are and L1, even L2, depending upon how well they are run. I wouldn't say they're bigger or higher potential than us. There are clubs like Northern, Leeds and Sunderland who get over 30k in L1 (or in Norwich's case, sell out at 27k or so) who are definitely bigger. But there will always be underperformers and therefore always space for a few mid sized PL clubs.
