We are absolutely skint due to bad management over numerous seasons, the PL money is gone, we have to adjust and do so within our means, look at Derby and Sheff Weds Portsmouth Bolton Sunderland all gone down. We are not exactly in a position to sign known players for silly money, maybe some smart business will free up cash for a few "bigger" names and we can try and compete with the other 12 clubs in the league chasing them.. but I think expectations need to be more realistic for where we are as a club now.
It's a chance to finally start over now a lot of high earners have moved on, I am happy we are going about it in a responsible manner, I can't say I'm gonna blow my load over all the signings, but until I see them as a TEAM playing on the pitch in a competitive game (or 12) I'll reserve my judgement.
Maybe it won't work out, maybe it will, but one thing we know is its the only way we can go about our recruitment at this time.
We've been spoiled, 2 promotions, cup runs and some big money signings, so I can see why fans aren't exactly over the moon, but it is what it is.
We all have our opinions, I get that, but just get behind the club and stop moaning before a ball has been kicked.
We play a part in it as well, and the better we are as fans, patience etc the more chance we've got of making a go of this. If we're against them from day one what chance have we got?
