    But you are prepared it seems to gamble premiership status on weak defenders ? I am assuring my place you are the one gambling it ?

    And you're prepared to gamble our long-term financial health on staying up?

    Don't think anyone can say NC has'nt got ambition and drive. Just look at the plan. CB with pace is perhaps more arguable although I've seen little of Yoshida or Stephens to form a view!

    Proof is in the pudding , as for the pace remark that was a tongue/cheek comment .

    Just because we're "loaded", doesn't mean we're going to spend loads every summer

    The club ISN'T loaded anyway - the owners are. Doesn't mean they're going to put all their wealth into our club?

    QPR - Ambitious? Reckless more like.
    You don't need to chuck money round as a show of intent. Especially when you're trying not to stand in the way of promising youngsters. We should let this on going argument about the defenders simmer till after Villa. Maybe things will look a tad better then. Big hopes for Yoshi, especially after a week getting used to nigelisms.

    A lot of talk about potential replacements for Adkins, personally I think it's unlikely. Anyway, out of every single manager in the world, what ones would you replace Adkins with at this moment in time if you could? For me, it would only be managers like Ferguson, Wenger, Mourinho, Guardiola, etc. Morally we should keep Adkins for at least the season, but I wouldn't say no to a world class manager joining us. Who would you replace Adkins with?

    Its a bit like speculating what tie you'll wear to your grans funeral.........even though shes still alive.
    Bad taste.
