Yes.  And if Khan is serious when he says winning is the most important thing, how does changing 2 home games into neutral site games help us win more?  It doesn't.  In fact, it does the opposite.

I used to think, gee, if we can just win our home games, we can be 8-8.  Now it's, gee if we can just win our home games, we can be 6-10.
I don't think it's much to boast about, but the Jaguars record in London is three wins out of seven - 43%.


Their record for games played in Jacksonville over the same seven seasons is 19 wins out of 49 - 38%.

Although the atmosphere in Jacksonville is undoubtedly better than it is at Wembley (where there's a real mix of fans from all teams) I don't think there's evidence that has produced better results.

Sadly, the team has been pretty bad wherever it's played.
