    Shots fired to say the least! A tad unprofessional but interesting to hear all the same!

    Ambition i.e willing to spend money that they can't really afford

    Everyone is ambitious and wants to get promoted, some are just more reckless in their pursuit of it. Not everyone can go up at once and it'll eventually end in tears for one of the teams living beyond their means

    Damning! I'd say it's him being a salty p*ick at first but you have to admit the more times we here it, from more and more players and ex staff, there must be something in it.

    MLH is spot on about our owners not being ambitious.

    Can’t argue with what he says to be fair. Whether he should have aired that view in public might be another matter…..

    If we're honest there's a few of us wish we could throw more money at it and before people say "it will end in tears etc" that just comes across as jealousy tbh if the owner is decent and willing to stand the loses fair play, its the ones that thrown money at it not willing to hang around when it turns pear that's the issue.

    I hope they lose every game. I'd rather Wigan, Birmingham and Bolton go up.

    I’m not saying that wasn’t the case in previous years but did he really have a fire sale during his “long haul” here? He left us yet that comment reads like he’s salty so maybe he’s doing that because he messed up leaving us.

    I’m not saying Huddersfield won’t spend any more transfer fees for the summer but so far haven’t they sold Rudoni for over £5M and spent about a million on incomings? Ambition through the roof so far!

    It’s ok him talking about ambition and fire sales, but it’s not his own money that’s being used and he doesn’t have an passcode for the clubs bank accounts,
