We won’t be far off that
Most of those six that they've lost will be loans, and it'll be down to how well Richie does again in the loan market. He seems a very smart operator to me, and has all the London clubs to draw on.
They’ve got great links with Spurs. Orient will be top half again, no danger of that
Wellens has a significantly lower budget than us but he has a great eye for a player. We are bringing in known quantities on big wages, we lack that keen eye, perhaps. Ability to spot talent on the rise. Value for money. We should be pretty strong though, especially if we can wangle some cute loan signings!
Yeah. Wasn’t a knock on our business. It looks like an all or nothing type season for us.
Is that in pounds or euros?
The "mkt value" reference refers to the nominal value of the player, not necessarily the transfer fee that was paid.
Thank you for the clarification
The Brown signing takes our market value up to €3.13m and average age down to 25.2
Average age of signings is just a tad under 28. TransferMrkt showing 27 at the minute, but that includes Zac Ashworth returning from loan (and he's 22).
That's a good thing, you don't win anything with kids.
There are some rich owners about who want to get out of the league. The rest stay where they are unless they get lucky with a decent squad and all the stars align for them.
That's a nuts fee isn't it. Good signing for them, but that's a lot of money on someone who's 32 (and would be inevitably cast aside again if he got them up to the CHampionship).
Conversely, worth it if he gets the goals that see them promoted.
Just what Birmingham have done. It paid off for them!
Not sure Alfie May is the reason they went up, but sure.
100%.
Good luck Jordon you have had a bad time at Oxford Utd.
The thing with May, particularly at our level, he guarantees goals!
He does, though 16 league goals for a team that dominated the league like Brum did isn't that amazing?
16 goals maybe but his playing partner Stansfield bagged another 19.
Got quoted / 4/1 blackpool at bet fred,put a huge pound on.
Isn't that for
I did think Luton have been keeping their powder dry and wondered when they might start to stick their heads above the parapet with some landmark signings.
A midfield of Saville and Odoffin looks as solid as it gets. Wells and Naismith have got bags of experience. Keeley is obviously a big talent.
When I looked at the Millwall forum they seemed to think Saville was a bigger loss than Honeyman. We can't compete with parachute payments unfortunately.
Both championship quality and can see why they would be disappointed losing Saville. Looks like Millwall have cleared as many ageing players as they can to recruit younger players.
Yes their forum was saying that the club strategy now is to develop younger players to generate income, sounded familiar!
I didn't realise Kal Naismith was a centre back now. Remember him as a forward!
