That whole situation shows how the Premier League (and to some extent, the Football League) has lost touch with reality. I don't have any objections to them spending that much *if* they have enough money, after all, it's their money, who am I to question what they spend it on? Where I think they need to get back in touch with realtiy is that a lot of the clubs (particularly the premier league ones) are apparantly heavily in debt. To the tune of 100s of millions.
Anyhow, back on topic. My happy thought is I popped into an HMV this afternoon. Walked out with the two Christopher Nolan Batman movies on Blu Ray for £20, and Micheal Caine's Billion Dollar Brain (part of the Harry Palmer series) on DVD for £7.
