Its obvious we're going to have to pay over the odds for every player we target, didn't Chelsea ffs.
Can't believe Cook and Hughes came out with the crap about not being held to ransom, if you we're a manager of a selling club everyone of us would put the figure up its a simple fact of life.
What pisses me off is giving these clubs a few extra million wont make them any more of a threat to us, the credit crunch will see that money going elsewhere and even if it didn't lets say Blackburn spent the whole 20m on players would they really get better than what we should be getting because shouldn't we have got them players first, because at the moment we're the only club realistically spending so having that first choice should ensure we get the best currently available.
If we want Cruz, Lescott, Parker, Bellamy and Given then fucking spend it, the total sum of money including Bridge would be about £75m its chicken feed to our new owners but it would seriously make us a stronger squad to push on to the next level.
All these rumours can be doing no good for the squads confidence or the clubs image so stop dithering around Hughes and Cook and start building the fucking team.
