100% in agreement. But your previous post seemed to suggest that there is a connection between size of budget and relative success. Sometimes it is - Barnsley and Yeovil being examples. But sometimes it isn't - Manchester United failing to achieve what their budget suggests they should. And locally Burnley and of course our own Stanley have proved that there needs to be an extra ingredient.

Again, 100% in agreement. But some of those who have moved on have failed to achieve as highly as their Stanley performances suggested. Moly and Rommy are examples - and Jimmy Ryan seemed to be a shadow of the player that we knew at Stanley. |
