You don't think the AFCB academy products - Vokes and Ings - plus the Poole born-and-bred Austin, all of whom were taken to Burnley by Howe had a beneficial effect then?
You're a shoe-in for promotion. All MM's teams play such delightful, silky football, it's hard to see anything but a title come May and a march straight into the Prem top four next season. Probably win the cup as well, so UEFA qualification to boot.
One does feel a certain schadenfreude, when reading this thread. Nearly upset my good-will to all men intentions, at this time of year (a look at the table restored that sense of well-being)

Congrats on having such a good vineyard in your back-yard.
Boots from the 60s! Why not go the whole hog and have leather balls with a lace in? And Bob Latchford could turn up and knock your teeth out (he would of course help you look for them after the game)

Edited to add:
However the outpourings of apopolyptic, paroxysms of faux-rage from some on this thread, that somehow AFCB were in their lofty position due to paying their players more than BHA could possibly...
The Football League is currently in discussions with a number of other clubs over their FFP submissions and will confirm any further FFP embargoes, if any, in due course....
Hello there chaps, how are you all?

I know the figure quoted for Rantie in that link, is wrong (by quite a hefty chunk)
Again I will ask, please supply your source for knowing the AFCB wages by player?
