Exactly Al.

It drives me nuts on here and on Radio WM when fans start crying...."where's all the £100m a year gone?

HELLOOOOO.........it's gone on wages,we are one of the highest leveraged clubs in the Prem in terms of wages against turnover.

Why can't people understand this simple fact?

One of the ways you get around this problem is to produce your own quality youngsters,play them whilst paying them fairly poorly and then sell them on for s h I t loads like Southampton have done.

We have a pathetically poor owner and a terrible chairman along with a pathetic recruitment guy and the useless Garlick.

It's a shambles from top to bottom.
