    Good post Rags, and it points out exactly why the likes of us, Villa and any other ambitious club with decent owners should stick to our guns instead of being a selling club, build around our best players and scour the worlds markets to bring in players of equal quality to improve the squad.

    At the same time encourage the development of the academy to bring the likes of Miley and others coming through.

    We will get to the top like this while the fraud six will stutter and fall back. Just look at their records over the past seasons where they rely on other clubs bringing through talent only to offer big bucks to prise them away. The lazy BASSARDS are not capable of standing on their own feet and building their own clubs on their own talents.

    Thanks mate, I appreciate the comment!

    Our owners won't sell the family silverware

    In a few other posts I've broken down the finances where we are restricted. To reiterate, it's the wages not the signing fees that are causing us the FFP/PSG problems. When the Hendricks & Fraser are off the wage bill this summer we'll have in the region of £400,000 / week in freed up wages.

    So, we will do good business this summer as we will have the Sela, Adidas & other new commercial revenue + the freed up income of shipping out the deadwood.

    We won't need to sell any of our top talent. Maybe a Miggy or another 'B' tier player but not the elite players.

    I just don't see that happening

    The solution for us is to buy/develop young players and spend (the money we are allowed to spend) on their wages and so reduce transfer/agent fees.
    This project is clearly under way at nufc and it requires patience from the fans.

    We need to be incredibly astute in the market when we do sign someone expensive. An expensive flop could set us back for various windows.

    I don’t see another way at the moment.

    I agree in principal with the long term project but our “ elite players” might not want to wait as long as our fans for the project to come to fruition. I would love to see us win something with Bruno, Joe, Eddie, Isak and all the others,Murphy especially soon
