In these moments, these few moments of happiness. I always believe its best to rub it in and wallow in the glory of success.

And I found myself wondering how much the team last night cost us.

Not including subs, I make that it £3.9 mill (thanks thanks to Wiki). Which is a fantastic figure, a credit to the management.

Ive made a couple of assumptions, of course, but touchwood not too far fetched ones.
1) Loan players did not come with a fee, just wages.
2) Moxey, cost circa 500k
3) Chammy, was a free.

So with Shane Longs fee rising to £7m and our entire team costing half of that.. The question has too be asked....

How fat is Steve Bruce's head?

Ps, I figure worst case the starting 11 still cost only £6.9 if we allow 1 mill fees for both loans and Chammy.

Happy happy JOY, JOY!
