But it's swings and roundabouts

They invested money making the ground better so they can make more money to invest in the longer term future. In doing so, they have also managed to support a bunch of players the managers wanted, often on obscene wages.

If you really want to rail against the world, look at the likes of Crystal Phallus - with the sort of Chairman some people on here seem to want, a.k.a. a self-aggrandising utter c**t with an ego the size of New Mexico and Colin Wanker at the helm, who haven't exactly been shy with the money. Cardiff have spent shedloads this season and are only 3 places above us. Money doesn't guarantee success (Although it's a big help), you still need the right players with the right attitude to make it happen.
