Fair enough, you're entitled to your opinion. Knowing how difficult player recruitment can be though I respectfully disagree with the majority of it (except the last point about Mason Mount obviously! 😜)

There will be bigger, richer clubs than us I feel - doubt we'd pay the necessary transfer fee. Would be a great signing though.

Indeed, excellent player. You'd hope so for £25m mind! They have quality throughout though, all we can ask is that we compete & who knows. We would need to catch them on a bad day & us play out of our skins but anything is possible in the Championship.

Probably started by the same poster who will pretend he never created this one.

For some reason, people can't be happy with the incredible progress we've made in recent years & instead want to belittle the incredible work that goes in behind the scenes without any understanding of it. The whole point you seemingly fail to grasp is how many "successful" transfers are others...

I meant how many "successful" transfers others were making with such small outlays. You've so far managed to name 1 but it's actually incorrect. Although the initial payment for Godfrey to York was pretty small it included various clauses including a sizeable sell on fee so actually Norwich...

Interesting take. Can you advise of all these other clubs that have a better record from a similar outlay?

Depends what you mean by "conversion rate"? If you mean go on to have a career with us or others in the EFL or PL then I believe it's one of the highest conversion rates in the country. It's why our Academy/Development staff are often sought after by other clubs - Rioch, Halsall, Stevens...

What a miss by Canos for Brentford

Brighton have a year's option. He'll likely be too expensive for us.

He also said Pask was finished at the club so...

I'm with you. Huddersfield have a clear identity in what they want to be, Corberan is Bielsa's former right hand man of course. Think they are having problems adjusting to what he wants & question if they have the quality to do it consistently over the course of a season. They have had a lot of...

Fairly sure any company in the country who has been impacted by Covid can do the same. As the Luton statement says they have had theirs prepared a while but been unable to get an auditor to sign them off yet. Hardly means "Financial Armageddon" does it?

I actually don't give too much credence to these particular stats, just wanted to see what the reaction was.

The point of signing them is that they're more financially viable. Either way though you're right, we won't be able to buy from the same markets going forward due to the new Brexit work permit rules.

Because it's the Daily Mail. They want to peddle this "Financial Armageddon" line to generate clicks/sales despite the facts showing it being nothing of the sort.

This is correct. Having Viveash here definitely helped Dabo decide we were a good move for him but Viveash had never seen Dabo play a senior game at any level so continued scouting of him was vital. The one, potentially crucial difference you have with Dabo though is of course there aren't too...

Literally what the Mail exist for

In terms of defining an "overseas" player then yes of course. I think the point he's actually trying to make though is that they all went through the same recruitment process which is correct.
