and what IS a calculated risk?

we aren't making money, so if we spend more we will be losing money. How long can we keep that up before it goes tits up in a huge way?
And aren't the club currently undergoing an exercise of reducing non-football wages (kit men etc?).

How much should we spend that we don't have? Give us a figure. And will you then want us to spend more than we have the NEXT season as well? When does it stop?
