    I would read the situation something like this....GS has money available to spend on players, however will not pay the going rate regarding wages.hence he knows that AR will not find players who will sign on for the small wages on offer.It looks like GS is the good guy. AR has his hands tied behind his back and if it all goes pear shaped the fans will blame AR for not spending the cash...but its impossible to sign free transfers let alone money signings on what GS is prepared to pay.

    I think that is probably correct. Having said that Ritchie has to take some of the blame. He has to be stronger and use the squad that he has better than he does.

    Would that be the same Morgan who lead the team that couldn't stop our reserves from scoring 2 goals earlier this week.

    We need to speculate a bit

    The borderliners are staying away for sure. Yesterday's attendance was poor.
    We're playing some good stuff but I can't help thinking of the old saying "Good sides play bad but still win." We're playing very well but still not winning when we should.
    Yesterday was a warning of what to expect when we don't play that well (and we were by no means poor).
    It's getting to the stage where we must strengthen.
    Chris Morgan would be an ideal start.
    It's time to splash the cash.

    No, no, no you've got it all wrong.

    Gordon has offered Andy all the money he needs but Andy doesn't want to strengthen the squad because he's an imbecile and it's all his fault and everyone he's tried to sign wants a million quid a week and Wayne Rooney wanted to come and Gordon wanted him to but Andy thinks Marc Richards is better and it's not Gordon's fault in the Chronicle next May.</p>

    It's reight.

    There's enough money available but Andy doesn't want to sign players except when he does and then there isn't. Anyway it's not Gordon's fault.</p>
