I know it is crazy times and the transfer window does not close until 5th October - but by that time we will have 'competed' for 12 points.
I just don't get why we do not make more of a statement in obtaining players earlier than we do.
Yes it is hard and, no idea why, we don't have the money that other clubs and their owners are prepared to invest - but surely having been promoted there must be some projected revenues which can be justifiably put into the transfer fund budget (beyond the £20-30m mentioned).
It looks like the season will be a somber relegation tainted affair - no change to other Premier League appearances.............................
