Wouldn't be so bad if they came out and said we have a long term plan to stash the cash over the next 3 to 5 years so we can then invest to compete for a top 6 place. You can see that if we continue to sell our biggest assets for a few years then we should build up a nice surplus. However, the risk is that by selling the best players, you then get relegated.
That said, it seems to me we are effectively playing the same game that half of the Premiership is playing. It seems we know that relegation is a risk but that the consequences of FFP present a bigger risk. Seems a little absurd given our sales in the last 12 months.
I've been watching the Burnley documentary and how they have managed their finances. It seems that it is very much a tight line now for breaking the financial rules and the consequences involved. Leicester are probably next to face the axe.
As fans, of course we want investment. We always want new players as there is always a weakness in the team. I think as Wolves fans, we have to understand that we have a decent recruitment team and they are now looking at the hidden jewels in world football. We also have to understand that we aren't going to lash out huge fees on transfers nor wages. I know many won't like it but that is the reality and personally, I don't blame our owners for not lashing the cash, even if we can afford it. We need the right players, at the right time and for the right financial investment.
