Rumbled...

You make some interesting points, but could it not just be they've struck lucky and bought well? Had we bought Bony and not RVW we could easily have stayed up.

        yeah, the season before bassong, turner, snodgrass and tettey (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 9, 19:53:55
        
        Precisely. (n/m) (NCFC) - avenging canary, Nov 9, 19:55:01
        
        none of the signings fit in with the squad or the style of play desired (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 9, 19:45:13
        
        We've actually made some decent signings (NCFC) - avenging canary, Nov 9, 19:37:17
        
        I agree, until this season we have generally made good signings since Lambert took over (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 9, 19:39:05
- Ok. (NCFC) - APB, Nov 9, 19:21:29

  - Good academy, good recruitment, fantastic directors and a legacy left by Martinez (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Nov 9, 19:18:23
    - no, that's not an answer I'm afraid (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 9, 19:34:08
      - Long term thinking. REAL long term thinking, as cited by Meca and Brandonio too (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Nov 9, 19:37:28
        
        again, not an answer to the question (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 9, 19:42:00
        
        I think Huw Jenkins is the answer (NCFC) - Brandonio, Nov 9, 19:47:32
        
        Sorry, yes it is. How many clubs without bucketloads of cash think the way they do in (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Nov 9, 19:47:23
