At least it was only a two year deal, 1.5 if you remove when he was out on loan. But yeah him too.
And Waghorn, not for the fee, but for the fact that he's the highest paid player, and hasn't given value for money.
I don't blame Waghorn for signing the contract, but surely we must of known that he was well past his best.
Yet we sit here comfortably in the middle of the championship despite working with a league 1 budget at best.Madness.
You cannot just give them a free ride because Joy had a tight arse. It's part of the job to work within a budget. They've signed some absolute disasters and should be called out on it.
It's a fair point that some of our signings were bought for league 2, and became victims of our success.Exactly. And as we've moved up from L2 to the Championship, they can't have too badly overall!
Constantly pointing the failures is like moaning about a striker that scored a hattrick but missed a chance for a fourth.
Would be on par with a lot of league 1 teams I’d of thoughtDo we actually have a League 1 budget at best though?
Yet Julian Gray continues to steal a living

Believe me Joy never had a tight arse!Madness.

KASTa gave us two great memoriesGave us even less memories than Kastaneer. That's some doing.
He stole Hilssner’s contract?Yet Julian Gray continues to steal a living
We can all be happy in the knowledge that at least he hasn't committed any war crimes.
On the other hand, he is German isn't he.
Perhaps he’s one of the reasons we have new recruitment team.Another one for the recruitment team hall of fame.
He's probably going to become the new punch line of that long running joke about the time we all foolishly thought Gray had gone.
I doubt if we had lost to Huddersfield you would make such an abrasive point, our league position has been precarious for a while because we don't have enough players able to contribute once the first layer has one or two holes in it.
Go through our entire squad list, there are far too many stupid signings taking up wages. It's fair game to call them out without having to preface it by saying 'we signed some good ones too' or 'it isn't their fault the budget is small'. It's a strange loser mentality to have.

Madness.

On the one hand, our recruitment team helped take us from L2 to mid-table in the Championship on a limited budget, with a squad including the division’s top scorer and arguably its most valuable player.
On the other hand, they also signed Marcel Hilssner.
So it’s complicated.
Someone mildly, well, 'authentic' came along and gave a salary figure for him that was eye watering. If true, am a bit more concerned about how it went. If, however, it was nowhere near then he's a random punt that failed, and c'est la vie.
He is, but an eye watering salary given to him doesn't stop me doubting the wisdom of the recruitment team, if that happened to be true!He is entitled to the contract he signed in good faith.
Chaplin?You can’t split it out like that really. Some come off, some don’t. You hope that overall more do than don’t. The only real “big money” failure is Walker.

It's only been precarious if you're an absolute drama queen. In reality, it hasn't.
I would say failing to win in 9 games and losing to non-league opposition is good value for having some genuine concern.
Such as 'why are there two goalkeepers on that bench'?Sometimes I think players were on the bench who werent fit because needs must and just to pose a question in the opposition managers mind.

We made a profit from himChaplin?
