    Before the Burnley vs Man U game at the weekend the press were obviously focusing on the debut of Di Maria, and one of the repeated facts was that Man U paid more for him than Burnley had done for every player they'd ever bought combined (pure spending, not a net transfer figure).

    Now, after transfer deadline day there's another stat:

    Hull City have spent more signing players in 2014 than Burnley have spent in their entire history.

    Someone in my office said today that we'd spent more (not sure if whole window or deadline day) than AC (Milan), AC (Internazionale) and AC (Napoli) combined.

    Not our problem, sounds more like he's broken into your house.

    Might want to get something sharp. Or something heavy, like an AC unit

    Hang on a minute. Reality check, some clubs spent more on a single player than we spent this window.

    Hull City have spent more signing players in (calendar year) 2014 than Hull City have spent in their entire history.

    No they haven't. That is an impossibility.

    Who would have thought 'Pre the 2014-15 season' would make that much difference but it clearly did. <devil>

    It appears someone doesn't get the meaning of 'net spend'...
