I've made the point before - but if you want to know why, only 20 months after promotion, we're just another average championship team here it is.

21 signings since we went up - of those, 2 out-and-out successes? Plus the Doc - who now looks like a decent championship defender, but he was bought for the prem, remember.

So that's 18 out of 21 that, so far at least, haven't really worked out. Not really surprising we've struggled.

Still want Worthy to splash the cash in a hurry over the next two days?
