The Hughes thing was enough for me

Reading about as speculation was annoying, but to actually go through with it now on ?7k a week

As already mention, you could properly scout promising players and end up paying less than that

You could hatch a plan now the worst has happened here, to rebuild the club properly with resources available. Employ the right people to scout, who have track records of finding good players etc

Instead it's all in 3 year deal ?1m

I know there's a lot more to it than that, and Hughes might be bloody brilliant, but I'm staggered we're paying that wage in league one, to anyone
