Cobweb, appreciate your own take on this.
But what I can say, the owners are closer to the situation that you think in terms of our ability to combat it.
They have not distanced themselves from UEFA or Platini, despite what others may think. The plans for growing our turnover over the next decade, will make our current spending outlay equate to chicken feed.
We will consolidate a position which will see us unable to realistically spend each year, what we generate.
The irony of UEFA's plans should not be lost on anybody. They are actually giving us free reign to build the club into the biggest in the world, with a clear mandate to grow expedentially, every facet of the club.
As much as the traditionalists and our rivals will not like it, the changes which will take place in a very short space of time, will leave most obervers breathless.
Our turnover will surpass Chelsea's in the next two years, and be up with United, not long after.
