Curtains Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Why moan about the money the club spends. I say go for it as the Premier League rewards for going up this season are immense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostyn6 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 rewards for who?What are these rewards?The only true reward is seeing better players, for the opposition! IN which case, I can see them on Sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is moaning that we are spending money? Do you mean spending x amount on a player instead of y amount on a different player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncanjwitham Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Why moan about the money the club spends. I say go for it as the Premier League rewards for going up this season are immense. It's not about not wanting the the prem, it's about what's going to happen if we don't get promoted. We've just spent 5 years clearing the decks and getting the finances sorted properly. What I don't want to see is us splurging £15m in one season, not getting promoted, and then having to spend another 5 years getting rid of overpaid players on long contracts and starting all over again. If we are genuinely in the position where we can spend that money without consequence then let's go for it, but I'm not convinced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GboroRam Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Do you think Man City would be languishing in the 3rd tier of Football still without the fact they used their spending power .Do you think we might see the mighty Notts forest in the third division despite spending stupid money?Spending is no guarantee of success but obviously it will help.

Gypsy Ram Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Do you think Man City would be languishing in the 3rd tier of Football still without the fact they used their spending power .The problem is Man City only has the world's third largest sovereign wealth fund behind them. WE have, erm... Candy Crush. But it means going up as a proper run club then DCFC will be around for my kids to enjoy, or despair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Do you think Man City would be languishing in the 3rd tier of Football still without the fact they used their spending power .They were taken over when they were already a stabilised PL club, so not really a valid point. It's obvious that to compete for the title you need ridiculous levels of spending.You can't stay up in the PL without spending money but you can certainly get there, see Blackpool, Burnley and nearly Ipswich last year.

Mostyn6 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Do you think Man City would be languishing in the 3rd tier of Football still without the fact they used their spending power .I have no idea what on earth you're babbling on about here. What relevance is Man City to anything?You asked the question from a Derby point of view? But then answer the question as if anyone else's answer doesn't count, and then bring Man City AND the 3rd tier into the debate, even though they didn't have a pot to pissin when they came up. I don't get your angle.Stop being cloudy and concisely get to the point and ask the question properly FFS or stop spamming the board with nonsense!

Ronnie is right go against the grain and you get hammered by the usual posters. I go against the grain regularly....
