It's true the football world has gone completely mad and at the same time lower league clubs are in serious peril and fans are being charged nonsense prices to watch their teams, so much so most big 'global' clubs like Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea now have thousands of tourists attend their home games.
Even Bristol City are rumoured to want £7million for one of their strikers, I remember when Andy Cole went for that amount and people thought that wouldn't be broken in a long time.
