No, we might have ended up with Sartori and his millions, until eels pulled the plug, and didn't seem to let the deal go through.
"paranoid innuendo?" Sorry, but the facts seem pretty clear. KR, wasn't able to do the business he wanted, and we sold players in the dying embers of the window, after being told we didn't need to sell players.
Go to the other end of the scale, the same end as Sartori being in charge, having a board prepared to invest in players as many teams did to better themselves. We are in pole position to push on with the addition's KR wanted. Now that task is made very much harder.
A once in a generation opportunity, in a league with no dominant teams, that may be lost because of a board looking to develop the Oxford brand in South East Asia, that still thinks it can pull the wool over Oxford United fans, as shown by zaki's pre-match interview.
How's Sartori done with his investment at Sunderland? Donald has had to take out a loan for instance from some Americans, those millions haven't helped Sunderland much.
