Thoughtful reply but leaves one main issue untouched.

As far as I know, we don't know who really owns our club. I have always assumed Slater and Jimenez are just the front men. I have always wondered if the real owners are Zaheel, the Arabs from Dubai, who were interested two years ago.

But whoever it is, it could be that they very sensibly gave Powell a limited budget to work with, to see if he could cut the mustard. Now they have their answer, they might loosen the purse strings a little. Even if they are only in it to develop players and sell them, our best players would devalue if they were playing in a struggling side, just as several players did under Pardew and Parkinson, only to enhance their value again once they moved on. And, of course, there is the question of enhancing the value of the whole club for possible resale.

So it just possible that Â£2 or Â£3 million might be found to buy three or four players to improve the side to at least challenge for the play-offs.
