Except it wasn't a winner for us 2 years ago, or 4 years ago

Just like not getting Crouch, just like not stepping up for Matty Taylor, or many others

A bit like someone outside of the club signing Huckerby to get us where we want to be

If we'd just signed Ward today, and it was the first ever interest we'd had, I'd be happy. But know the four history of it, and the paralells of past players we've tracked like this

I'm skeptical about this new era and lessons learnt that I hear every time

If we make the same mistakes again, whilst we have the right man in charge. I'll properly hate our board if he leaves because of the restraints, because it will be a full 14 year turnaround, and waste from when O'Neill did the same thing, over a player we stumbled about for a long time over quibbling about a fee
