up to 20% 30, 40, 50? theres still a big chance that you fail and then the money is wasted.
There are no guarantees, and even though the rewards for promotion are great, there are many examples of clubs spending a lot and going nowhere!

I think Tan is pragmatic - to invest now is too risky - a big chance you see no return on your investment.#
I think if we start well one season and are amongst the top few clubs at christmas then you could see more significant investment, as there's a better chance that it'll get you over the line.
I think Tan is the exact opposite of pragmatic. He's overspent needlessly and failed to spend when it has been necessary. He's also shown himself to be prone to knee-jerk reactions.
