    The owner appointing the right manager is as important as the manager signing the right players the Glazers have had 16 years to get things right and win trophies but have failed for the best part of two decades and it's not money that caused the failure so that only leaves incompetence

    Awful owners who have given successive managers more money to spend than any club in the UK ? Owners don't appoint managers, the CEO does and they have an awful CEO who appoints awful managers. Nowt to do with the owners.

    Pretty sure Adams was saying a few weeks ago loan market was the target now is going to “splash the cash” wonder what changed?

    Derek telling Sparks to get some cash springs to mind.

    yeah just read the article in the T&A about January window. Sounds like he's going to try and get some outs too. Hopefully Watt can command a hefty fee.

    link? I couldn't find that anywhere. I thought it was six figures not five. £60,000 is very low for any player. not even a years wages that...

    All I could find is we did make a small profit on him.

    Didn't BFG fall out with Jagger, and then went on to appoint Hutchings and we all know how that ended up. I suppose it depends how hands on an owner wants to be, and we know that Richmond was the type of owner that called the shots. Now we're at the other end of the scale. Ultimately, I'd say the buck falls squarely at the owners feet.

    I hate it when we tell the world we have money to spend. Why do we do it every time?
