Problem is there's a difference between saving £30m and getting £30m. Most of that money will not be re-invested, in my opinion.
Still better than giving it away, now, is it? (IMG:

Or should I say, started every week. If they are to be retained it should probably be at that amount. 1m at most. At this time.
Or we can do almost as good by signing up good prospects or bringing them through our youth system and handing them 1 million roundabouts per season. If that 30 million is to be saved, then so be it. If invested? Nothing better.
