Going over old ground I know, but this is gross mis-management. If we put all our eggs in one basket to sign Owen even though it left us short, the person who sanctioned that should go. We have the situation where so called lesser teams are buying players left right and centre and we bring in one loan signing despite being desperately short of players. It's also farcial that we are having to field half a first team made up of kids whilst an expensive crock sits at home. Frankly we didn't have the financial clout to buy Owen we should have bought within our means and spent modestly to improve the whole team rather than put all our eggs in one, injury prone, basket. This is no way a pop at Owen, but the purchase of him was irresponsible to say the least.
Roll on the summer window, we'll be promised all sorts, but end up with excuses.
