Both plan A and plan B were NEVER going to happen

I remember when the news broke about us bidding ?5m each for Graham and Hooper so many people on here said there was no chance in getting either. It was so obvious, we could have found that out the first week in January on moved on.

I said at the time and i've said since so i'm probably sounding like a bit of a knob now but we could have signed a player for ?5m in January who'd have scored the goals to keep us up.

      - But you agree his circumstances weren't great? (NCFC) - pants, May 6, 12:33:53
