That bid won’t succeed. It’ll be £8-10m as a minimum I would have thought.

Why? We’re trying to offload excess forwards to reinvest in our defence and midfield. We don’t have £5m and if we did an average striker no better than what we have would not be a smart move

Don't think he's a realistic target for us

He’s a RW and the fact we have no depth there is meaning we are having to change formation.

He’s miles better than Sakamoto too

No.We need strengthening in other areas first and he's likely to go for a lot more than that which we can't afford anyway.

Because the money was spent on rebuilding the squad . It's not a bottomless pit as you seem to think

He expects Doug to pay for unlimited transfers out of his own pocket but doesn't appreciate that it then becomes a debt owed by the club.

Anyone who thought he was going to come in and plough £20/30m a year into the club is deluded.

Think this is likely from the expected Latte Lath proceeds.

Liam Lindsay signed a new deal at Preston. I know a few people pitched him as a signing they'd have liked.

I mean he'd cost us up to 8m, we are much better off spending that on the defence and midfield

Shame as would have liked him in but thinking on it, looking at stats his ball playing might of left a lot to be desired.

Anybody else fuming if we don't get players we never tried to get but we can pretend they chose other clubs over us or we couldn't afford them?

He’s on 60k a week apparently, would have to be a loan

Schlupp is a LW isn't he? Do we need a signing there with EMC & Haji returning?
