We aren't really that much worse off than everyone else.
The transfer market seems to be awash with players waiting for that better offer that will get them a bigger hoose or the parking sensor on their club Lexus and whilst we rake about in the bargain buckets, that's what we all have to put up with from now on, as unpalatable as that may be, no player is going to sign until he, or his cunt of an agent, have milked what they can in terms of contract from teams desperate to sign players.
Worse in our case as they presume we have a bit of cash to flash.
