Plus TV money now is so much higher, last year teams got 48m pounds in tv money, in the new tv deal its expected to go close to 90-100m, compared to 2003 when it was around 25-30m I believe.

do I think they will suddenly have the same financial power as United and Arsenal right away, no, but they won't be as limited as Arsenal were in that 7 year period either.
True but doesn't that mean that the richest also got richer?
