How closely does Eintracht current slide mirror 'Gladbach's recent downward falling trajectory? Gladbach went for it: not selling their big players to try and win hardware. They ended up winning nothing and subsequently lost their financial footing.

Suffice it to say placing all your chips in for one round is hollywood, but in reality that's macho irrationality and discounts the future. Throwing every future dollar at a current season is just bad planning, especially when in the sport nothing is guaranteed.

Conversely, saving for the future does not guarantee success. But will it hedge the trough? Will the hedging be its own gamble with its own complications and risks? Will adding 20K to a stadium be a good idea when the play on the pitch doesn't match the supply?
