Aston Villa, Wolves and Brighton outspending us!
Considering G&S promises before the move our spend should be Villa´s.
But no we have to be sustainable and not wreckless you say? You either are connected to the owners somehow or seriously mindfucked by them
Villa outspent everyone, as Fulham did last season. That went well. Wolves spent very little last season, they had most players on loan which is why they spent big this year.
You would rather we spent money we didn't have? Like Portsmouth, Sunderland, Leeds....
Connected to the owners? Behave your fucking self
Just out of interest, point me in the direction where either of G&S said that once we moved we would be spending £100m a year, or outspending every other team?
That tables only half the picture, the other half gets manipulated by the so called loans from the owner. We can have a fair assumption that they wouldnt fork it out if they couldnt afford it, and god knows they saved up for it for a few seasons. Fair play to them but hoodwinked we aint.
They have said that they got a really a good deal moving to the LS even as far as saving money on running costs per game, which , by their words were considerable. They then try and confuse it all with the loss ofrevenue in sales of refreshments etc. )
However, they didnt say they would spend millions upon millions to get us competing in europe, they did indirectly imply it because they said they wanted us competing there, maybe even the CL in a few years. ( not a direct quote) and we all know you cant do that on 50p, we tried it the past 2 seasons on a shoestring of cheap imports and how did we fare?..Well i guess technically you could say that is competing in europe.
A good person does things in silence, others strive to be seen as good so scream out their deeds.
