He's proved he doesn't want to put a sizeable investment into the playing squad to stay in the upper echelon. So what's the point of getting into the same position we were in this time last year?

It's fairly obvious that he likes Warnock because he achieves on the cheap. Even with the parachute payment, I don't expect Tan to spend more that £25m during the summer. Warnock has been his own worse enemy.
