Contract extensions are great, unless they are being used to validate a lack of punch in the transfer market. Every club extends contracts but I have never seen any other club justify reduced transfer clout because of this. I know we owe this board a huge debt and we owe KL even more, but that doesn't mean we can't question why most teams in this league can now afford (and I mean afford not stretch to) huge fees on big players and we can't. The amiunt of money we are taking for this season just for being in the league is astronomical. If there was a ground extension being built, I'd get it. The truth is though that we are doing a Rupert Lowe: resting in our laurels when we need to push on aggressively. It cost us a ginger manager we loved back then and it has done the sme now.
