But when we went up

we did very little "ridiculous spunking" and it still nearly f**king bankrupted us

Our main summer signing was Gary Donkerty AS A STRIKER!! It was only in Jan when we bought big and even then it was a young striker unproven outside the lower leagues at a fee which hardly registered

And fees have got much, much worse since then

The FACTS (yes, FACTS) are that we spent as little as possible and still got ourselves in a massive s**thole culminating in League 1

It's not worth it and I don't want it
