What's funny though Kempton, is when the Allams want to, they can land the majority of their target's. Look at when they brought Silva in because they feared relegation.. It was ****ing raining new players. For decent money too...

Just goes to show they don't give a **** anymore.

Certainly not defending the Allams here but I think it's a stretch to compare our transfer policy to Leicester. In the last 5 years they've had Sky money, they've won the league, they played in the champions league, they've made a 60mil profit on 1 player and I'm fairly sure the owners had more in the bank to begin with.

We appear to be losing everyone we're interested in. When will Grant McCann realise there's something wrong with the way we're doing things?[/QUOTE]

Buckingham's article about final month of transfer, suggests McCann ain't happy. Good start. Not.

Accept that but we have brought in a few decent signings under the same circumstances. So some things may be wrong but some may also be right.

Alas I accept their owners have more money then the dodgy duo .. but let's not forget we were bankrolled with Premier League monies .. we have also made money on our signings but unlike the Leicester owners .. our owners chose to pocket the majority to try and settle the so called monies owed on the 'gift' to Hull .. Andre Grey was a classic example of not wanting to part. You'll have to forgive me but I am afraid I dont know who they made £60m profit on ?

Agree with all you've said. Yes the owners certainly make the club it would seem

60mil profit was made on Mahrez. Bought for around 5mil sold for around 65mil (I think)

Not signing Andre Grey was a big mistake and has cost the club millions imo
