Fergie would have no more chance of winning the league under present conditions than McInnes,

In his 8 seasons here Fergie won the league 3 times, Dundee Utd won it once, Celtic won it 4 times. Celtic won it more often than we did even though the gulf in financial spend was a fraction of what it is today. At the time our players were on not massively dissimilar money from theirs, whereas now even their fringe bench-warmers are paid a multiple of what our top players earn.

Fergie did a magnificent job but he did it in an era when we could attract and retain far better players than we've any hope of bringing here now.
