Chelsea West Ham Arsenal Spurs well they got loads money are always going to be competitive
But clubs like Palace Fulham Brentford Luton all had Premier league experience, three of these four seemingly established top division clubs now.
And then even as we speak clubs such as Millwall and Watford currently presiding In the Championships top six.
Only really Charlton and Leyton Orient below us and Orient are traditionally a small time club.
So it's only Charlton that under performed ourselves and that could possibly change too.
This last decade has been awful.
I think it's time for all involved to really consider their association with our club so am talking about all.
Appreciate we are tough sell but am guessing there will always be the odd billionaire that wants to massage their ego and the fact we are a London club and with the knowledge that almost all London clubs have improved and stabilised at higher levels would initiate interest.
Think it is time for a complete clean sweep and let's use this as the start of a new era.
This recent history needs to be quickly placed in the dustbin of history.
A new regime throughout is required
So we have little invested in the recent dismal past.
People have told us that no one will buy us and we should be grateful for having our current owners for years.
This despite clubs like Wrexham and even possibly Tranmere attracting investment these days.
What we need are some ultras to tell the owners some home truths. What we'd get are a few fans going for lunch with them at the training ground and coming out of it singing their praises.

I apologise if I am wrong but this is the way I understand it.
The reason why the likes of Wrexham and Tranmere can attract investment is because the Profit and Sustainability Regulations allow for more club losses in the divisions below The Championship. This is why Birmingham recently spent a lot of money.
Anybody investing in QPR at the moment would be helping Ruben cover his losses, hardly an attractive proposition. This is why I suggested that a relegation might actually help the club in the long term because in League 1 we are a better proposition for investors in that they would see something positive happening with their money rather than simply covering losses.
Don't get me wrong the last thing I want to see is my club being relegated but there might be a silver lining should the worst happen.
Of course, any new investors would have to be more football savvy than our current owners. To think when Fernandes took over and brought along Lakshmi Mittal with him, we were the richest club in the land and with a more sensible approach we could have become an established Premier League club. Football has moved on so much in the past twelve years that if we got promoted now we would be in the bottom half of the table when it came to wealth.
