Yeah it took me aback at the time

I always held it against him that we spent money on him and he couldn’t hit a barn door!
Now $300k we are spending on people like Raphael for development hoping they ‘might’ make it.
Spending £2.5m on Bassette cause he ‘could’ be worth more one day and has raw potential

What a time to be alive

Hughes would go for more than 15m to prem in year or two even if we signed him and failed to get promoted.

Fair enough we might not get the lad , however if we do , you have to trust the process which is doing us so well already

I’m not worried about what we’re spending, more putting all the eggs in one basket and it ending badly

I do genuinely think they’ll buckle if we go a bit more

This is the thing, if he gets injured or flops we're fucked. And probably instantly lose £8m+ on his value.

Yeah it’s this for me too.

I do think we need a centre back though and if he is the difference between shipping sloppy goals then perhaps it’s worth it.

We won't though will we, without promotion no one is spending more than £18-20m on a championship CB.

At this point the only way he can do better than coventry is a move to the premier league this window or January.

We are a fantastic club with great crowds and ambitions of the premier league a realistic goal .

It would be a great move for him

Luckily I don’t work in the club’s recruitment department- not much would get done…

Get Hughes, get Boving, get promoted.
Simple as.
Doug and Frank know. Leicester are penniless has-beens, Southampton are managed by a weird little gimp, Ipswich are making some pretty underwhelming moves and look well below what anyone thought atm.
We'll be in Prem with an extra tier on the CBS this time next year.

No it doesn’t at all?

if we sign him for £12m and then someone bids £20m next year should we go up that’s good business no?
