"We have assets to sell if need be..." is seriously daft thinking.

A positive net spend is debt mate.

Obviously we're working near a balance of zero given prior profit but we're likely in the red anyway as the £100m doesn't come in one lump.

Our problem is that Webber correctly (in my opinion) identified what we needed most for next time...

And yet he's given us a midfield squad of McLean, Gilmour, Rupp, PLM, Sorensen and Normann.

3 of the six are new signings, 1 a loan which never solves the problem, PLM was about £3m Normann would have been about £12m of we'd stayed up and he wasn't made of pastry which seems to have been a known issue.

Webber has f**ked this up massively.
