How far would that money take you signing overpriced premier league players though? They inevitably want to leave when we get relegated and we start all over again

But still have had a weaker squad. Luton may not survive but i think missing out the year before has helped them have a chance

We have seemed to mirror Luton's rise only a year later. Here's hoping

Was saying in the other thread. The U23s becomes more U18s plus the odd fringe player waiting to go on loan. Match day squad is now 20, that’s basically your first team squad with injuries and backups that travel.
Click to expand...
Yep. We need to see the U21's as a reserve team rather than just a group of youngsters.

At the moment I feel if the U18's aren't regularly in the U21 squads then they're going to be released.

Just looking around, Santiago Hezze currently playing in Argentina, age 21 and very Hamer-esque DM. Anderlecht had agreed €8 million with his club last month but he decided he didn’t want to play in Belgium in favour of a more major European league.

Fair, hadn’t seen that. Though it seems they bid £3.5 million, could hijack the deal in true FM style.

I havent been told anythings changed as of yet, its just personal view that if another club wants Styles, that could slow things down on Kitching aswell. If that makes sense. Im rambling

Obrien is absolutely class. Sheff U wanted him but Forest don't want to sell to a rival. A cheeky 5m bid with plenty of add ons if we go up maybe?

Because they brought in far too many players. Also someone you want to have in a side with a decent amount of possession which they didn't have much of last season

They want £10m. Sheff Utd were interested but wouldn't pay that much so they signed Davies instead.

Could be that with the Hamer money, we may now be exploring other options/ looking further afield, thus cooling our interest in the Barnselona duo??.....

I agree but if the right Hamer replacement isn’t available for the right price I wouldn’t mind a loan for a season. O’Brien probably be an expensive loan though.
