I'd be happy just to see us play a bit of football and finish mid table or so this season.

And that sums me up too.

To push on we will need to add quality players. Newcastle showed last season that there are ways of doing that without spending a fortune. I would hope there is a lot of work being done behind the scenes to get our scouting system up to standard. We shouldn't need to spend MON type money to go from mid-table to European positions. That's not to say that when the right player becomes obtainable that we can't spend the money to get them.

It should be noted that although Newcastle were 'canny' in the market, remember they flogged a certain ponytailed one for well, well over the odds.

What, like we did with a yellow-bellied left winger?
