Would you take Boro's latest signing for that money or Afobe and Dicko for what we spent on them?
Yes, I would take Boro's squad over ours.
Derby pushed the boat out last season with the loan signings of Lindegaard and Ince. They were nailed on for promotion but finished below us!
Ignoring the fact that their downfall was due to injuries to their strikers the teams that did get promoted spent as much as they did.
Unless you get lucky in the play offs, the only way you get promoted nowadays is by investing in the team and even the play offs winners tend to be a club that spend money. On both occasions we've got promoted was by spending money.
if people still think that you get out of this division without spending then they are deluded.
