They must have spent £10-15m already this season.

Championship madness.

On the other hand we've signed one player and Steve McClaren has spent couple of days doing a passable impression of Billy, moaning about the board not being able to sign anyone.

Not really madness - we've signed 7 players, sent back all the loanees on big wages, sold on a few and sent others out on loan. Haven't paid over the odds for any of them (unless we spend the touted £7M on Nicky Maynard), a couple of frees, etc.

Sven inherited a team in last place last year, patched it up with expensive loanees and got us to mid table. Now he's shipped out the shit and started to build his own squad. Given the lower wages we'll be paying the current crop, the net expenditure on transfer fees is negligible.

The fact that you managed to appoint the most laughable former England manager is somewhat unfortunate for you, though.
