Blackpool chairman Karl Oyston insists that success in football is not all about spending money as it can be spent unwisely or ineffectively.   He is known for his tight control of transfer and agents’ fees and player wages.

He says that Blackpool’s budget is now bigger than the one got them into the Premier League.   Even so, they are just seven points above the drop zone in the Championship and might even have survived in the Premiership if they had spent a little more.
