Never ever want to get to the Premier league

£110m

That’s in isolation
How much did all the championship clubs lose?
Cardiff didn’t go for it spending big did they?

They lost £20m in 16/17. What would you call "spending big" if that doesn't count?

You're moving the goalposts with every post. It started off with the observation that it's impossible to get to the PL without incurring large debts or having a very large fan base.

You didn't accept that. You gave examples of clubs who DID run up large debts and now you're saying that a) a club losing £20m in a year is not spending big and) it doesn't matter because all the clubs in the Championship run up debts.

Not really going anywhere, this, is it?

In isolation maybe
Show me how they fair in comparison to all other championship clubs whether they’ve gone up or not. The fact is clubs in the championship lose money, Cardiff didn’t “go for it” look at the players they signed and how much for.
They weren’t even in the reckoning with bookies for promotion. It was a miracle they went up same with Huddersfield

You said no club can reach the premier league without spending an obscene amount of money.
Cardiff didn’t spend an obscene amount of money last season.

People are spending millions in the Championship and achieving nothing. Joe Bloggs bang ordinary players on thousands a week for providing mid table performances. It's a diluted version of the PL.

Exactly
Clubs are getting to the premier league and spending less than clubs that are struggling in the championship.

I do like a good natter but this is the dictionary definition of pointless. I'm out.

No Billy, that's Dragons Den. 😉

Wey-hey!

Not that I'd watch neo-liberal propaganda like that...
