Mr GameI don't really understand Khan's plans and strategy for Fulham.Unlike the owner of Manchester City, albeit the ruler of an oil rich state, Khan seems unwilling to go for broke and throw many millions at the club for facilities and players to make it genuinely a 'serious contender'.All he has done is put in a few millions for players, most of whom were pretty useless and is developing a new stand probably financed by the riverside flats it will contain. He obviously thinks London can't accommodate another Chelsea, Arsenal or Spurs and so was/is trying on the cheap to be another Palace or West Ham, kept in the Premiership by a wing and a prayer and canny managers. ("Woy, Woy, Woy..."). Unfortunately his management team lead by his son were pretty pathetic in choosing the players they bought two seasons ago.But what do Americans know about English football and what usually happens when a rich Dad gives his son a business to run ?We are and always will be a Championship level club.That means we should not ape Premiership style football as we are doing now because we do not have Premiership level plays that can carry this off.We need good solid Championship players managed by a pragmatic 'Championship worldly' manager.Then perhaps we will not again have to sit through the fiasco of our game against Hull - a Championship club that seem to fit the mould.
