    Perhaps it's not you who is demanding some action in the transfer market or it is and you have not been specific?

    All 'm saying is don't follow Wendy's path.
    It's not as simple as that.

    IF we can find good players that fit in with our transfer budget and wage structure, that's fine. However, we might have to cast our net wider to achieve this, as it's an ever diminishing pool in the UK and Ireland.

    IF we can't, then we need to revisit our transfer budget and wage structure. Neither I, nor anyone else on here as far as I'm aware, is advocating the old 'throw as much money at the problem in the hope that it will work' approach, as it's clearly not worked for the Pigs (and many other clubs). Suggesting that we need to pay the going rate is not equal to suggesting that we 'follow Wendy's path'. It's incredibly frustrating that certain people can't see anything other than black and white when it comes to debate.

    That's much better Carp' ....I understand a little more....we need to spend more but not too much. A good idea, I agree.
    Others might just be advocating a 'spend now, reap later' approach but most don't bother to explain their views.

    At the moment I'll trust CW is trying his best to progress our club at a steady pace.

    Cheers Chipper.

    I honestly don't think that even the most rabid Blade believes that spending our way out of the league is the right way to go.

    Does anybody really think that they are not going to come out of this smelling of roses ?
