Its an arms race, and we're falling behind.

That Toivonen chap that just signed for Sunderland said this:

"There was nothing for me to hesitate about," the Swede told BBC Newcastle.

"Dick and other people spoke highly about the club, there are great facilities and the chance to play in the Premier League."

Did you see. "THERE ARE GREAT FACILITIES"!!! GREAT FACILITIES.

So there you go, our once great facilities are maybe no longer great, relatively speaking. Sunderland's seem greater than ours. This could be the REAL reason why we haven't signed Cavani in the last window.

We need to up our game sharpish, or we're going to be proper f**ked. Where will we be if we can't show them our facilities? Nowhere, that's where.
