    Paul Aimson well before my time
    11 goals in 23 games after signing from Bury for £4000 in 1967 , half a season and he was gone to Huddersfield for £20000.
    Other than York, he did not stay anywhere for a long period, but scored goals wherever he was.

    His grandson currently plays for Wigan, Paul died in 2008, heart failure . He was loved in his time at VP, but City had to cash in…..rough times!

    So what does it mean then? Part of the PR planning? Manipulative? Is it word salad? Define it for me?

    Let’s take the simplest one I can think of , from the top of my head.

    I can participate in the local 100 mile cycle race , hence I am a competitor and thus compete . I’m 70 in a couple of days and about as much chance of being in the top six finishers as going to the moon , yet I’m still “ competitive” .
    Add the same word to budget, squad and ……………?

    Then there’s another “ footballing “ which could mean playing budget , pitch renovations , academy , coaching staff , bantams TV .

    See what I mean hopefully ? Ambiguous spin and drivel .

    Don't do yourself down mate top six easy, in fact you could win it by a mile. If you are riding a motorcycle.

    Rupp said that we would able to compete at the top of league. Obviously, we are there or thereabouts atm, and we cannot determine how all this will pan out until the end. Ambiguous spin and drivel is correct. I think that a club like ours with thousands of loyal fans over many years who were teetering on the edge of abandoning the club last season it was highly manipulative as well. In my view you do not put the trust fans have for the club in jeopardy.

    Indeed Kev, Pablo was a class act, some of his moves both on and off the ball was at times way above that division
