Buying Success: Discuss

[TCIB]

All money does is buy you a less shit set of options and problems.
The way i see it is we had to pay a premium to get in the vip section of a club as our face was not famous enough.

To say we bought success is imo far to simplistic and wholly unfair to our managers and players.

Going back a few pages here but fair play to Matty the mod who handled himself with dignity in the face of idiocy. Annoying as fuck having to read posts like the initial one.

every one who wins something buys success dont they?

Of course,however,the more you spend seemingly deems you less deserving.

City current squad costs (including Mangala) 350m, United current squad costs 350m with a promise of many more signings and a big gap in their central defence to fill. Guess we can expect the phrase 'big spending united' in the first 5 minutes of every match they play for the next two years!

Rather than look at our spending since the takeover, look at the last 10 years and that would tell you a different story, of course we have spent heavily but to get to the level of the rags and the dippers and Chelsea and Arsenal we have had to, they have had 20 years or so of Champions league money funding them

we all buy success, its happened for time immemorial, nothing new
for anyone to say otherwise is kidding themselves

the stick we get beaten with is our money isn't earn rt

where as your dipper,rags and gooners claim its turnstile revenue money

and the debate goes on and on

Impossible to achieve success without spending.
