“Getting to the Premier League is significant enough. But staying in it...” — Neil Etheridge Quote

Getting to the Premier League is significant enough. But staying in it is another thing entirely, particularly when you've not spent much and kept the core of the team that was promoted from the Championship and was not even fancied to do so in the first place.

I went from Chelsea to Fulham - two Premier League teams at the time - and was sitting on the bench for the Europa League and Premier League and you don't think it is going to finish.

And in the Premier League the support was fantastic, home and away, sellout stadiums win, lose or draw. The supporters were in full voice and that's a massive credit to them.

It's nice to come away from training and relax, get away from the pressures and get away from football and enjoy the downtime!

It's not always about winning a game or winning a championship.

I've been to just one AFC championship game.

My eventual goal is to win a championship. And before I retire, I just want to win a championship. That's it.

Every single time we step on to the field - practice field or game field - we're thinking about winning that championship. But at the same time, we're taking it day by day. And we are taking it game by game.

I'm here for the long-term, that's for sure. I think this championship is growing massively. It's only going to get more and more interesting.
