Have we actually signed or sold anyone yet?

Not into rumours, or possibilities.
Which players are definitely leaving us and have we brought in anyone except the kids through the academy ranks?

And does anyone know what spending budget Appy will be given?
 
Ethan Robson was released at the end of the season and has signed for MK Dons.

We turned down money from them for him in january and gave them him for free last week 🤣

Weve signed an 18 year old lad for the academy that was released by Peterborough.

Thats all i think
 
I do not think there is too much money to spend, as witnessed in the January window, so we are waiting on money generated from outgoings!?
 
should be more movement after July 1st as "international deals and free transfers will not go through until July 1"
 
Harvey Hughes from Portsmouth who will join the academy and Joe Strawn has signed his first pro contract. Beyond that and the clubs released That’s it…….so far!
 
Sadler always been upfront that he couldn't afford to bankroll the club. As long as money made by the club benefits the club then that's all we can ask for and the training ground is going to tie up pretty much all that money.

Maybe MA said, if NC could have us mid table, I can do a lot better, so stick with what we’ve got.

In almost all of Apples initial interviews he states that the group needs more talent adding to it.

Inevitably there will be some players he just doesn’t fancy and some players that want to move on.

It’s a shortened pre season this year and we’ve had a managerial change with all the delays that entails.

5 or 6 will move on and 5 or 6 will come in. It’ll happen just not all in one week, the clubs run properly these days.

The lack of any transfer activity is alarming to say the least, sure I appreciate the circumstances with the NC upheaval has been a huge factor, but bearing in mind we limped home at the end of last season, we are way short in depth squad wise considering it's almost July.

Worrying, very worrying.

It would be worrying if we didn't already have a massive squad.

We need to add quality, not numbers so for me, it's not that worrying.
 
I get the impression that the money for Bowler is the key- no, hear me out- if its 5m then yes some of that will go back in transfers. If it's around 2m then I reckon that money will be kept for improvements made or in the making (SG for example) and not see any transfer pot addition.

At some point, very soon, they will decide where the fee will be and make signings on that basis. That could backfire obviously (budget for 2m and get 8m when you have no squad spaces left and the opposite). They'll probably err on the side of caution without concrete bids in.

Agree, said that myself.
 
Life's too short to make a mistake, let's think of each other and not hesitate
Young and impatient we may be, there's no need to act foolishly

We limped home because Crutch tinkered too much.🧐
 
We all know that the best time to pick up players is after the window has closed when we can then take our pick of the best free agents 🧙🧙🪄🪄🧙🧙

As funny as it would be, it's pretty obvious we don't have a good relationship with Aston Villa right now.
 
At least we’ve got a fax machine that works nowadays. In fact, I’ve heard reports that we might even have three, in case one breaks and the other just can’t be faxed.
