Reading the comments on here i sometimes despair at the unreasonable and unfair nature of some people.

We have low budget for Championship - we always will and should not risk the club by over stretching ourselves
most (if not all) other championship clubs are bigger than us and therefore have a more appealing offer
we are towards or at the bottom of the list of championship clubs interms of 'appeal'

on the positive side
we are a well run club
good management - good stadium
a potential stepping stone (shop window) for up and coming players maybe

so this isn't a fair fight is it. our purchases and loans have been thoughtful and we havn't been mislead. just merely disappointed that we didn't land every chase.

and just to put RUFC into perspective how many other clubs get the players they want
not - man utd, tottenham, newcastle, arsenal, Chelsea etc
sure i would have liked Emmanuel back and a CM but it wasnt to be. but lets not slate the entire club when we have made good signings too.
Be disappointed yes, but lets also be a smidge more realistic and ack
nowledge that this is a fight with some big fellas in it.
