I know we all focus on the shower of s**t and shambles of transfers deals but....

surely looking at the big picture there are other clubs in all divisions who have f**ked up just as much if not more? Gambling is just part of football.

The bigger clubs maybe not as noticable as they can often just write off a £20m flop.

We write off £5-8m flops.
