He won't be able to agree a price with a club, offer a player a wage and then, even if he did find a few bob hidden under row Q, seat 224, showed a player Moor Farm, Pride Park and then........... the player says "what's the aim, gaffer, promotion?" and the answer is "irm, no idea irm we might be starting the season on -12 points......".

The future might still be black and white but it's certainly not bright at the moment.
Precisely...although our future being ‘bright’ is exactly what Rooney was quoted as saying by the DT about three days ago...which brings us full circle to your journalism/reporting thread.
