No, Tony has never spent big on a striker. (any conversation that has that opening gambit when £2.5m has been spent is f***ed up) I get it, I understand why, I'm sure I'd be doing the same. You only have to look at today's thread about the Villa player looking at a £90k a week contract next...

As much as you're right, and (honestly) I do agree. AK is clearly the best winger we have, but he is the best of a very good bunch. Skalak, March, Murphy, Rosenior, KLL, are all varying degrees of good championship wingers. All helped by playing in a proper wingers team for a committed...

And 1 loanee will come in. Let's see the LICKERS spin that.

Whereas 6 months ago we got collectively called out by Zamora for being shite.

They are vociferous and passionate when faced with shitehouse players. Exactly the same as when some pure class lands in their lap.

Loved by the Toon army or loved by a bunch of delusional tutters who'll get on your back the moment you misplace a pass. Tough call.

Not all the while everybody else is strengthening. Not to mention the 3 new parachute payment clubs, coming down. Yet the Albion can't even afford to run 2 supporters bars.

I wonder when the Albion players start looking at the statements of intent by the rest of the division, and while looking at Glen Murray, begin to think the grass is greener elsewhere.

Moving on from all the usual stuff about not selling your best players etc. It's hard not to be impressed by the business acumen - £7+ million profit for 6 months work.
