Today is way too early to be making specific judgements on players.
In the chatroom I got into a minor spat with Libero when I pointed out that as long as we keep selling our best players (eg Webster & Waghorn) we can never make real progress. By that I mean reaching the PL and staying there.
Ironically, Ive just bumped into someone who used to be involved with the Bristol City board, is a City fan and (incidentally) a long-term friend of Russell Osman. He was moaning that Steve Lansdown never quite spends enough to push City the extra mile. I said he should advise ME!
The point is this: I'm absolutely delighted to have Hurst, mostly what he says and does makes absolute sense to me, and he's made such a difference already to this lovely club. But I cannot see us making the progress we all would really want (and would put this club on a sounder financial footing) unless ME is prepared to spend quite a bit more. Not the ludicrous spending of Keane days - but more, considerably more than he spends now. |  |
