"So if, for arguments sake, we were to fall into £250m/£350m "sponsorship" (from all arts and parts); would you not want the money spent on big money, quality, players... as a matter of "principle"?"
You will note that I made no reference, whatsoever, to £331k per week wages or just a single player. [I've even taken the liberty of underlining the relevant part.].
Your answer was "Like I said, given the choice, [spending the money on big money, quality, players or staying 7th] I'd rather stay 7th": which, given the actual question, I found strange but did remark "fair enough".
You then started posting (and re-posting) your stance on a single player earning £331k; which would have been fine if I asked the question: "would you not want the money spent on one, player earning £331k per week?"... but I didn't.
Nah, it's not. In fact I've no problem (this end) at all mate and I've said as much a couple of times now but just to reassure you... If you would rather, (as you said, very clearly), we finished 7th than spent any sponsorship money "on big money, quality, players" then that's fine by me.
Personally speaking tho' they are the only thing I'd spend the money on. Including the whoopeedoo sponsorship money (should it materialise) by the way. *slippy tits back on topic.
I'm all for having millions, but if it came to spending it all on one player - I'd rather stay 7th.
My post, was all to do with the 331k, that's why I posted that tweet about 331k.

In response to your post, I thought I was clear in highlighting the money being spent on
one player. I have no qualms about it being spent on, say, 4 or 5 quality player(s). I assumed that was obvious from the context of my posts - I was wrong. No harm done.
Here it is:

. @SPORTBILD report that Götze turned down a €20m per year offer from Man City last month. that's GBP 331k per week...
If that's what money can get you - I'm more than happy to stay 7th
Principles
I see what's happened, I or you mentioned 'player(s)', one extra letter, I didn't catch that, but my whole point was the ludicrous money being bandied about for one player.
Players, no probs, player, big probs. That's not wriggling out of anything though, my initial post/tweet is evident I was badgering on about the amount for one player.
