Yeah. Just £182m in the last couple of years. Chickenfeed really:

Predictable in a sense that we'd win nothing and probably end up 4th (ok we got 3rd but I've explained the Spuds bottle job).

As for the spending fair point (although they recouped 36 million), but I don't think the CL win was down to money, they didn't have the best side and hadn't spend the most...it was about more than that, there's was a real grit and determination about them.
