Having a manager who won’t be here after next season and who everybody expects to go out in a blaze of glory doesn’t lend itself to anything more than signings for the moment rather than the future. Wouldn’t you think?
Signing some unknown Brazilian kid for £14m doesn't mean it wont just be for the moment. Could urn out to be tripe.. or could have his head turned and b***r off in January. Sammy Ameobi is good to go and he'll produce at a higher level than Mendez-Laing.
Players come and go and managers come and go. We have a pretty decent stock of youngsters, Warnock want's to put experience back into the squad.

imagine having to face THAT in the championship!
we're only looking at being in the championship for another season, plenty of players would like to see their stock rise and be involved in a promotion, maybe get a stab at the prem.
