You need something stronger if listening to him.
The parachute money associated now means unless your club is run utterly incompetently, you'll be fine.
Don't think it's that at all, particularly odd comment considering how burns practically begs for something negative to happen in order to moan. As I said, if he just shut up every few minutes and let us just hear the ambience from the ground, even on audio only, he'd be much better than some anecdote about a pie he's eaten or a pub he's been to.

1600 miles away and feels qualified to comment on local culture.
You get radio commentary on a video feed because the only way you get it is because 2/3rds are on a radio feed.
Deal with it.
One signing that has been made by Acun that provides value for money.
No, it just means more money is swilling round at the top end than ever before.
When we won the play offs in 2008, it was classed as the richest game in football, that was £60 million!
The difference now is only the numbers are bigger, the same transfers that were £2-5 million are now £10-20 million!
Incompetent owners will still screw everything up, the same as Duffen & co did back in the day!
I don't know if Duffen was incompetent... He gambled and won. He then gambled again, to keep City in the Premier League, and won again, then he gambled a third time and lost everything. I guess he could have pocketed the cash after the first promotion, and invested in what? Perhaps better training facilities and an academy.. but what else? The ground isn't the club's to expand, the commercial success is pennies relative to turnover etc.
With the ever-increasing salaries, any money earned and banked is long gone in a few seasons, so only thing guaranteeing stability is continued success, which can only be achieved by punting money on players.
Duffen was just the Chairman, it was Bartlett that was the owner and did the gambling.
Fair enough, Bartlett put the initial money down and opened up the credit streams, but Duffen threw the dice and was successful twice. A third throw was one too many.
A forward line of Jan vennegor and Jozy Altidore was never going to work out in the second season in the PL, the punt on Zaki failed and no 'recognised' forward wanted to sign for City, according to PD. Any stability would be long gone now, but at least the memories remain.
I came back to this thread seeing multiple pages thinking we had an update or something. But nope just off topic crap unrelated to the thread. We have other threads to talk about Burns or McCann. This one thread is very important. Engagement is good and everything but, this is too far off topic...
There's no update. If there was one people would be talking about it.
