not really, I just don't trust worthington with another penny

The if he signed........... could have happened in jan with the 3.5 million, but he wanted to put all his eggs in one basket with Earnshaw

We could have bought JJ for 500k, Halford for 500k, and then spent 2.5 million on midfielders, maybe koumas loan, lee clark loan from newcastle (although they had injuries so unlikely), mark noble loan, and jerome thomas loan for midfield, willo flood loan.....

Could have done so much more with that money, instead he got a great striker, with nothing to make him play to his best in midfield

Its just s**t management, and he doesn't want to buy good midfielders, he just wants strikers built like ashton, midfielders built like Andy Todd and Danny Mills and defenders to hoof it to strikers. Nothing is going to change on that front. Probably why he released danny crow
