I have been getting more and more into soccer over the years. From the World cup and now playing FPL.
So I was wondering, what is the thrill for promoted teams , from the championship to the premier league in English football for example ? Southhampton got promoted last year and basically became a punching bag for the rest of the premier league for a whole season only to be demoted again. What was the point ? Do fans think there's always a small possibility that an sheik from Saudi Arabia will show up with blank checks to sign players and make the team the next City ?
And anyone outside the big 6, is there always a dream that you might become the next Leicester circa 2016 ? In an alternative universe, Forest could have been that team this year.
Honest questions.
