We're only marginally behind Dortmund and higher than AC Milan, Porto, Valencia, Napoli, Leverkusen, Sevilla and plenty of other high profile Champions League teams.

Time, perhaps, to change this mentality of believing that scraping survival should be the sum of our aims.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold...

or even understanding players are paid to much? Money doesn't necessarily automatically bring success, in the same way as having no money automatically brings failure. We won promotion by paying next to nothing in comparison to other teams in The Championship. Team spirit is far more important than how much money is being paid.

I hope all our players have a relegation clause in their contracts.
Otherwise if we went down and couldn't come swiftly back we'd be stuffed !

So if we were in the Bundesliga we would be the 3rd highest payers but in the EPL 10th. Surprised that the likes of Stoke aren't higher than us.

Lol! What kind of logic is that?
