    “I will have a better idea of the budget at the end of the week. I am committed. I am aware we will need players coming in.

    “I am anxious to see what Neil and David Livermore and the scouts come up with. It is other people’s responsibility to advise me -and I am going to listen.

    Berylson <ok>

    has cellino spoken yet <doh>

    In answer to the OP

    'Bigger' Club

    1. Leeds United (no brainer)
    2. Norwich City (fan base would dictate we're bigger than 'Boro IMO)
    3. Middlesbrough

    However, who currently has the better financial 'clout' to attract players?
    Close call but after several more years in the top flight than 'Boro:

    1. Norwich City
    2. Middlesbrough
    3. Leeds United

    <ok>

    Rad will have Cellino gone by June, that was the deal ... his management moves look quality, and will really help Leeds to grow as a club

    Ivan Bravo runs a moneybags academy that can help to discover young talent for Leeds

    Kinnear did a great job at Arsenal and West Ham, great move to get him in as CEO

    Orta was the man behind Sevilla's recruitment, he built a superb setup there and we all know how successful "little" Sevilla have been in recent years, becoming serial winners of the UEFA Cup and producing stars like Dani Alves (Barcelona/Juventus/Brazil)

    Sevilla was also one of the clubs Monk spent some time at to learn ... it must be tough trying to recruit players for Boro, not the kind of club top class players want to sign for, regardless of money

    Norwich are trying to do a Huddersfield by appointing Wagner's successor at Dortmund ... really don't understand why they've gone for a Reserve team coach in the hope he can do what Wagner has done ... the difference with Wagner is that he worked closely with Klopp at Dortmund during a very successful period for the club, and Klopp has helped him to settle into the English game ... Huddersfield have also had a stack of luck this season, but luck is a necessary thing

    Norwich and Boro can have as much money as they want, they will never be able to compete with Leeds for truly quality players ... even with the stupid transfer fees and wages they pay, their squads are still behind Leeds, and that speaks volumes

    can't wait for Cellino to wave goodbye and go and ruin Brescia (shame, they have no idea what's coming) ... let the good times roll

    Rumours of a possible Wally signing to help shore up the leaky defence!

    Looks about the same age as Morison, so should fit in nicely. <laugh>

    Norwich are heading into their last season of parachute payments whereas Middlesbro have three years of it ahead so I wouldnt have Norwich top of that table
