Do you think the club are ...

Personally warnock is not a long term manager and has been said before by gringo if our long term plan is for someone like Bellamy to take over the clubs restructure on and off the field would be massive, I think we got lucky last season in promotion from what was actually expected so unfortunately there was no plan in place for promotion and honestly I don’t think this squad would be good enough for another promotion, the championship is getting littered with good teams and it’s just going to get harder to finish in that top 6

It's not so much about the wishes of 'the club' but as to what Tan's plans are - and he obviously didn't think it was worth splashing significant cash in order for us to have a decent stab of staying up. Maybe he is either content for us to be a Championship club under his continued tenure and/or trying to recoup some of his losses during our season in the sun (and that if the latter is at all possible).

Spend like Fulham have or the jacks did last season? We are in the mix with about 6 teams

This is definitely the biggest positive of the current season. Southampton, Fulham and Huddersfield are looking as bad as us , if not worse. I feel that Newcastle, Palace and Burnley will start to pull away and it'll be left to the four of us to slog it out .

That said, if there were some long term thinking , I'd feel happy to see this season as a shot to nothing.

The idea that we were just underprepared and are unwilling to invest is a bit more "depressing".

Regardless of whether of not there is actual management and planning going on at boardroom level, at least they have a whole season now to think about how best we can transition were we to go down.

There's a question that needs answering. Is there actual management and planning in the boardroom or is Warnock running a certain amount of that as well?

There are never any guarantees either way - and Fulham have obviously not spent well. However, our lack of a striker will almost certainly see us going down.

If this is right, then they are not very good business men. There should always be a contingency plan in case things don't go the way you have planned.
