Report on twitter suggests that Robins said post match that he wanted 3 more players but the budget might only stretch to one more .....

Anyone seen any quotes to this effect ??

Can’t help but feel Robins might be slightly exaggerating the budget issues. I’m sure he was saying similar earlier in the window and we’ve just gone out and bought Walker.

Could be a negotiating tactic to stop clubs holding out for more

There’s no way we have a smaller budget than Wycombe and he said we’d have the ‘smallest budget bar none’ and said even with Wycombe promoted.

It’s a smart move, and it manages expectations of him and the team. In the market, fees always inflate a little when a team gets a windfall from a sale.

I doubt that because we’ve had approximately a £6m windfall from promotion alone.

My guess.

He wants 3 signings, but one is Walsh. If he gets him, we can’t afford anyone else

The average championship clubs loses £17m a year. Financially the league is broken.
