We are doing very well because JB puts in 8-10m a season, without it we would drop a division so in that respect he is investing.We are having a very consistent spell, but I don't think failure to invest or to bring through youth is viable long term
Bringing youths through has changed completely from 20 years ago, money talks and we can't possibly compete with London Premiership clubs at all age levels.
Money has ruined football in many ways and there is no sign of it changing, we could be allowed to spend 100m this summer and we would probably still be in the Championship next season.
I think we need to remember that Derby heavily invested and had youth players coming through and it didn't serve them well.
