(1,415 votes — Due to the Webmaster's extended absence on holiday, this poll ran for an unusually long time with the pattern of voting shifting, not unsurprisingly, with the Blues' form. It's not surprising, therefore, that following the defeat to WBA, 2/3 of voters felt it was a mistake not to strengthen in January whereas recently the tallies have evened out as CL qualification became more likely.)

Yes

It is worth noting that we ran a similar poll in November last year asking if fans could contemplate selling Rooney for £35m. Almost the same percentage (69%) of over 1,500 fans said "no way, no how, never." At a fraction of our daily readership, 2,604 votes may not seem like a lot but it's the biggest response we have had to a poll so far.
