I hope that lad's as good as the hype and I know Glenn's worked hard to get him but this whole season-long loan scheme shows just how sad football's become. After all Portsmouth, a club no bigger than our own (indeed in terms of support smaller - discuss), speculatively buys this lad due to the stacks of dosh heaped on them by Sky and then ships him out to us where hopefully he'll perform well and return to Pompey as an asset far more valuable than when he arrived at Carrow Road. Hence making Pompey even more dosh to go along with another heap from Sky. It's absolutely destroying the game at lower levels and I fear the Championship, hard though it is to believe after the terrible standard of footy seen at CR last year, is only going to get worse. I feel for our Board and all the others outside of the Prem because the disparity increases season by season.
