Maybe I am going against the grain, but I don't really see the rush to go up. Obviously I would love it if we do, but I won't be upset if we start next season in the Championship but with Oscar still in charge and with a squad of his players. Gus left a good squad of individuals, and the framework for Oscar to work with but he is his own man and will want his own type of player in the squad. This isn't his squad and won't be until he has the January window for minor tweaks and then next summer to sign the players he wants. If our plan is to be cheap this summer, freebies and loans, and then invest next summer then I would support that plan. Unquestionably.
Long term success matters more to me than the short term potential gains.
I'm not overly fussed but ffp, parachute payments and stupidly high prem prize money make me feel we need / needed to...
