    They aren't gambling the farm, they are doing like we are but from a much worse position as their infrastructure is much worse so needs more money spent on it.

    They have a different approach to players and have a mix of championship ready signings plus younger ones they can sell for profit as they progress

    I think they were organised enough to exploit our weaknesses and the rest was desire and discipline to put the system to the test

    You are bang on mate, we don't have a leader, or a well defind method of play, we are all over the shop, The Cardiff result helped us in NOT JOINING in the relegation clamour.

    Not being funny mate but we're both ghosts talking on the Internet.
    You post as if everything you say is gospel and everyone must believe what you say.
    Since KLD has came in, hardly any info has came out of the club, but you insist on saying he's a child and is only using us as a play toy. Why should we believe that?

    How have they been more ambitious than us? We have spent more money than them this season

    They have an unreal manager who is getting the most out of their squad. Folk slagged them off on here at the start of the season n couldnt believe bookies were predicting them to finish above us

    Its not ambition, its about nailing a managerial appt

    So the head of recruitment didn't help pick the signings? But the bloke you have an agenda with (rightly or wrongly) does.

    Sounds like your using that as a stick to beat KS with mate.

    Harvey is the Head of recruitment not KS

    If we had appointed McKenna there would've been uproar. His first half season in charge was pretty average as well.

    Harvey absolutely picked Burstow I know that for a fact. And considering he was at Blackburn with Dack i'd say he had a hand in that.

    Their accounts are actually what every club should be made for do. A clear table listing their ffp /psr position.

    It should be an fa rule
