But we're not, and we didn't, so that's a stupid argument.
Instead we sold two big players for us, replaced neither, have no fit strikers, are drifting away to a mid-table finish and the club has demanded fans pay more and pay it within a month or be forced to pay an even more extortionate price.
Without even the fig leaf of a justification for the increase in costs, they don't even mention they've went up significantly, there's no attempt at building interest or expectation for next season, no courtesy towards the fans for their support.
Just a price list and a deadline.
