We’ve had about 45 seasons in the Championship. It would be nothing new. 

In 2004 when Martin Allen pulled off the great escape from relegation to the basement, Brentford got about 4000 in the 12000 capacity Griffin Park when we played them. They are now holding their own in the premier league having just had Christian Eriksen turning out for them in a lovely new ground that is still smaller than ours. 

Luton have just been within a hair width of making the premier league. 

Look at Rotherham. 

Return to the championship is ambitious, yes. Unfathomable no. 

Huge amounts of groundwork to come to build a rock steady base to do it sustainably and financially safely. 

I don't disagree, but I think some of those are the exception, rather than the norm. I doubt Notts Forest fans are saying "we've won the Champions League before, it would be nothing new if we did it again". Look at some of the massive teams that couldn't hack the Championship and are now in L1/L2.

We can look at clubs like Rotherham, Wycombe, Burton, Yeovil, Blackpool etc and say "if they can, why can't we?" (which I agree with), but I think talking about the Championship when we've only just been promoted to L1 could leave us with egg on our face.

Let's focus on staying in this league firstly.

Sorry to be the pessimist, but I don't think L1 will be as comfortable as people think.
