What are we as a club?

Obviously it's not great at the moment and with a possible relegation again it gets you thinking.
For me it's the thought that we never ever maintain anything for long. It's not boring being a Blackpool fan , we have tremendous highs but there's always a low coming and we never maintain anything consistently. I think the ground mimics that....it's there but not quite there . It's impressive and I still think that now but it needs to be a 20k all seater , nothing less. I know there's plans for the new East but even those hint at the capacity not being significantly changed maybe? Surely if your going to do it don't fall short of what you need.
I'm loathe to criticise the owner but even that enthusiasm seems to have dipped. From recruitment to bad managerial appointments to the deafening silences. Where once you thought they were on the ball it just feels things are changing. Again it's not maintaining a consistent.
I think it must be very difficult for others to define how big we are as a club. We fluctuate too much over the years with results, support and infrastructure. I know that's not unique and its football but we never stay stable for long.
Sorry for a depressing post. Any thoughts?

Dunno about you but it must be fecking boring being an Arsenal fan perpetually stuck in the same division for over 100 years.🤔😜
 
A club steeped in football history, the only team in football in tangerine and white, a club trying to grow after decades of neglect under The O’s, a team with 15 games to go to save our Championship status and I am backing us to do it. Despite a good few relegations over the years I can’t remember so many fans throwing the towel in with virtually a third of a season to go. UTMP 🍊
 
I'm not hugely arsed about whether the capacity with the east ends up 18k or 20k or 25k cos for us as a club if we are in the championship or lower we wouldn't sell out and if we are in the Premier league then the differece of a couple of thousand in gate receipts are chicken feed and largely irrelevant so why overspend now. Brentford are doing absolutely fine with 17k.
