I was working over Tankersley way when this owner of theirs took over and as you can imagine plenty of wendy's worked there too .

They were obviously full of it when they started throwing the big money around , the PL had better get ready was about the gist of it .

I can remember saying to em , " if it doesn't come off you could be fuqed long term with that wage bill and what you've paid in fees " .

After the first play off defeat to Hull at Wembley they were down but still optimistic for the following year .

The second play off loss to Huddersfield in the semi final fecking killed em and they've never recovered from it .

They aren't the first to do it and they won't be the last either .

Nobody but nobody who I talked to at work could see the downside if it didn't come off , they all bought in to the big signings and huge wage bill .

Only the last two seasons really have they turned on the owner to the point it's toxic right now but they weren't saying that at the beginning I can tell you .

Feck em anyway .
