Of course its related, it makes it harder, but its not the be all and end all. It just means when we do get the break and things come together, we have to grasp it, because if we fail, history tells us it might be a few years wait before we have the same opportunity again. We have to be more consistent, clever and ruthless. We can't use money as an excuse when we've spent significant amounts so poorly.
As a club from top to bottom we need to get our act together and at least gradually improve, its no go good being a constant yo-yo of a team, consistency needs to be instilled in every repect and it needs to translate to the pitch. At the minute there are too many aspects that are pulling in different directions, we've seen fractions at staff level, long distance owners and a perceived split in the squad. Hopefully the changes in the Summer are an attempt to remedy our ills, only time will tell whether it was a conscious longterm decision or another typical quick, expensive fix.
