He's been on trial with us for ages, no? I can't understand why we'd sign him now after all this time and if he was properly decent why it didn't get done sooner? Same thinking with the Tashan Oakley Boothe signing tbh though

Why did we sign Oakley-Booth and then he doesn't make the matchday squad? It's not like he won't be fit. He has been on trial for ages and played in the Hibernian game.

So they can say they’ve signed x number of players, it’s a really weird way to do transfer business and it’s been crap for nearly 2 years now, I just don’t think our budget for players and wages is that great, I’m still underwhelmed with Sadler, it’s not what I was hoping for after we defeated the stains, he’s very meh as far as I’m concerned and if we don’t sign 3 or 4 decent players by the end of the month my thoughts will only be strengthened.
 
If true, I wonder if they might include Tom Trybull in part exchange as I`ve heard that his wife wants to return closer to her Norfolk roots having recently had a baby ?
 
Are people really that gullible to believe:

1. We would spend £2M on any player
2. Clark Harris drives an 8yr old car
3. Would take that route to Bloomfield Road
4. Would be interested in a house nr Mereside

Cuckooland! 😂

Well the asking price isn’t £2m for a start - he’s 30 and in the last year of his deal
£1m will do it.

We ain't spending a million on a 30yr old, all this based on an 8yr old car that just happens to have JCH on the plate. Absolute nonsense.
 
BlackpoolFC said:
About 5 L1 clubs are actively trying to sign him. We could easily be one of them

Are they really? I've some magic beans for sale if you are interested?

All sounds like agent nonsense. The only clubs with over a million to spend would most likely be Oxford, possibly Barnsley given their outgoings. No way are there 5 clubs.

Add Bristol Rovers who have backing from a new Kuwaiti owner . Maybe Bolton too if they sell Charles ?

Yes there are actually and you’ve forgotten Portsmouth and Derby for a start. They can afford the fee. You didn’t think before you posted did you ??

Derby definitely can't afford the fee bonehead. Nor can Pompey. Do you just make shit up for fun?
 
What is the clubs excuse for where the Yates/Bowler/Critchley money has gone? All together that should be at least £6m, I dont get how we seem to be unable to afford a statement £1m signing, however there have been some on here saying that we can't. I get we have spent on Norburn, but that's really it for decent fees.

A new stand and training ground which will cost 40m!!!

I’m not going to criticise because I know Sadler has the clubs best interests at heart, he will do the best within his means and won’t put the club in jeopardy.

I thought that was being funded separately by Sadler himself. That's what was said when the plans were announced.

Even if it was, we’re getting significantly less money this season for being in league one, with players on big contracts Compared to other clubs. It’s an adjustment period, if the right player comes at the right price, I have no doubt we’ll get them. Buying doesn’t equal success unless it’s done right!

He'll fund some of it but will use investors too, plus, if done properly it will add value to the club for when he wants to sell, and that's exactly what he should be doing and what any of us would do in his situation,

Relegation wiped out at least £7mn in revenue and we were losing money before that
 
So potentially there is still as much chance of me scoring with Cameron Diaz this weekend as our strike force due to no recruitment
 
Sussex said:
How do you come to that statement! We're yet to let in a goal; we're yet to lose a game; we've already signed a numberof quality players, with more to come. There is no chance of us getting relegated.

I am not sure about more quality players to come. Our dealings in the last week of the last few windows have been disappointing.

Got to speculate to accumulate. I think it's worth £10m extra this season with the new deal isn't it, or maybe from next season.

The new TV deal is effective from next season, not this. In any case the value to league one clubs is nothing like £10m each. They currently receive just £700k each per season and the value of the deal is 50% more or an extra £350k. That hardly scratches the surface of the estimated £7m loss of revenue from relegation from the Championship

That's what I was getting at. At the moment we are £7m down from being in League One, I think next year it will be £10m down if we are still in League One. That's why it's maybe worth the risk of spending a bit of money to get back as soon as possible. Lots of teams get stuck down here for years.
 
Must be a bad Hamstring then? Looks like a Christmas return. If Trybull doesn't get a club then surely he will come back into contention?

Rhodes rumour would be the loan striker we need plus one other permanent.
