In all fairness there has always been money to spend.....Its been a question of a) How much ? and b) Whether the Chairman had the confidence in the Manager to allow him to spend it

I imagine that might be relaxed slightly to allow GH to add to the squad in January but it is clearly still an issue.
Quote from: amfy on December 12, 2010, 12:30:22 PMI really enjoyed this half hour of coverage. I loved the overview of our history, the shots of the Wesleyan Chapel, Aston Park, and Villa Park looking amazing from every angle. It was a great reminder of the pride I feel for our club. I loved that the presenter has the air of a kid at Christmas dong the programme and had a giggle at his "look what happens when you walk out through the tunnel" - he radiated a fan's level of enthusiasm which really made me smile. I also loved this derby being given the recognition of dedicating the show to it.Then I've come to this thread and it's all about how much money we've got in January - I think this is why modern football is rubbishThing is, with the first paragraph we all feel that anyway. yes, its great. But when you're where we are in the table, with the upheaval we've gone through over the past 4 months, I think your final sentence it what is really interesting us most at the moment. If we were sitting a few places higher then we'd even shrug our shoulders if we didn't purchase anyone in january, now i think this place would implode if not.
