You have made up my motivation. I did not claim you said we were on rations. This is something you have made up.

We were signing players like hayter, o Connor, wellens, roberts, We’re now signing youngsters!This is in the public domainWeird that, a manager known for taking a punt on younger players to flog for big bucks signing young players that can be developed to probably sell on at a profit, eh...Why is it weird? So you’re saying if he had the money that Penney and sod had he’d still be signing youngsters with no experience of this level? I’m pretty sure he’d be signing experienced top notch league one players just as Penney and sod did

I have a pretty good idea comrade, I think it would be pretty hard to find a post of yours that isn’t having a sly or not so sly dig at him.And in my opinion no way is our budget top 8, and even if it was, stevie wonder could see it’s nothing like the one we had in most of those years you’re trying to compare this season to
May had a good game today not his fault nothing came from midfield they was crap

We definitely have a budget firmly in the top 10 and by careful evaluation you can ascertain that we sit somewhere about 8th place. If you spend as much time talking to people at the EFL as I do then you can work out the exact position. The transfer windows have a habit of upsetting the pecking order but it soon becomes apparent where you are. The EFL even tell each club where they are in terms of budget.You could take my word at face value, or you could wait about 18 months for all clubs to publish their accounts, but it will become apparent sooner or later.

Dickos- you seem to be saying that Fergie is a "chequebook manager." If that's the case, he doesn't really fit our business model.
That was mostly reinvestments from players sold. If we sold Beestin for £5million, I'm sure we'd use some of that to strengthening the team again and potentially sign a player worth a million or so.

And buying players for 1-2 million on quite a regular basis. Doesn’t really happen now
I’d like to see us source players with the potential to increase in value. I’m sure there must be plenty of targets out there.

Doesn’t really happen now So you agree that he signed players for Peterborough to sell on at a profit which funded these massive fees, yet he's not doing what he did at Peterborough? which is it?
