Transfer Budget...................£20m

[Blade58]

Stuck it here because it's just a rumour, but according to daily rag, CW has a £20m transfer budget

Report: Sheffield United transfer budget for Premier League season revealed

Report claims to know how much the Sheffield United transfer budget for next season will be.

www.sheffieldunited.news

Don't know if that is just fees or whether includes extra wage bill?

And of course the usual could be just bollox anyway

 

[BLADES1988]

Well at least that's 19mil more than usual

 

[ReeceofBDTBL]

Looks like a soup of lazy journalistic bollox to me.

 

[Groucho Blade]

If he keeps us up with that budget, it will be an amazing achievement; dwarfing everything else he’s achieved here.

 

[bladesfc]

"Ownership squabbles have ended up in court and left United's spending plans uncertain. Suffice to say, Wilder is likely to get a similar budget to Norwich, around £20million."

Just speculation.

 

[Blade58]

First and foremost, how would the Mail know?

Usually top secret that stuff, but when McCabe said "a healthy budget" it did make me wonder what "healthy" meant in this context?

 

[Bladeinleeds]

Wilder build a premier league side on Less than 8m (and a positive net spend).

I’m sure he could still do some damage with that budget. Even if ideally you’d hope for a bit more to allow for a few more high end signings

 

[Pedro Verde]

Total guesswork (or bollocks)

 

[Houso]

Genuinely not even a rumour.

An opinion prefix is needed.

 

[yorkshirecoast]

Disgraceful if true - but hopefully it’s wrong. Although with our pathetic owners I wouldn’t say I’m confident it’s fake news.

 

[Ricky]

£12m for McBurnie then £8m for Henderson, Sluga, Cooper, James, Bell, Fer, Freeman, Jota and Roofe.

I don't see the problem.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Total guesswork (or bollocks)

Most of it already appeared on here

 

[FTPE]

Soooooooooo we won't be bidding £20m for Maupay?

 

[Torrix1889]

How the fuck would the Daily Mail know how much the transfer budget is....?

 

[Torrix1889]

If it is £20m I would suggest that some of the transfer listed players will be staying, we will be looking for bargain freebies and lower end Championship players.....if the £20m includes wages and agents fees then that would be swallowed up by McBurnie alone....£12m fee and £40K per week over 3 years is the guts of £20m....game over!

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Are we planning ahead for our next stint in La Liga.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

How the fuck would the Daily Mail know how much the transfer budget is....?

Reporter might have had his ear and a glass to the wall of the next hotel room of either of the owners while in London for the CC.

 

[Ricky]

This £20m is based on absolutely fuck all by the way and the guy who runs that news site should know better.

This is all it says in the Mail:


HOW MUCH MONEY DO THEY HAVE TO SPEND
Ownership squabbles have ended up in court and left United's spending plans uncertain. Suffice to say, Wilder is likely to get a similar budget to Norwich, around £20million.

But everyone knows that would just be Bantz

 

[gavtheblade]

Bullshit.
If that's classed as a healthy budget in the top tier I'll stand hanging.championship budget at best.

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

It's not bollocks though is it.

Norwich have announced they have 20m to spend.... Wilder has said we'll have similar to Norwich.

Doesn't take a fekkin genius to come up with the story.

 

[Ricky]

Wilder made a throwaway comment about a budget 'similar to Norwich' and too many people have ran with it.

 

[SUFC Guy]

So we get £100m minimum for this season and we spend only £20m ?

What is the other £80m going towards - seriously?

I would expect the transfer budget could safely be £40m and that would leave £60m with taking into account everything else in the running, upgrading and ownership wrangling of the club.

 

[Groucho Blade]

Wilder made a throwaway comment about a budget 'similar to Norwich' and too many people have ran with it.

Could it be a classic deflection technique? We don’t really want anyone knowing - or even guessing - what our actual budget is, do we? Much better to throw people off the scent by saying it’s similar to Norwich’s budget...innit?

What motivation do Norwich even have to announce their budget.......

Other than by 'announcing' £20m they put themselves in a stronger negotiating position. "We're skint..."

By saying we'll have the same, we're doing the same.

So that means its bound to be correct

 

[Antarctic Monkey]

That's a champions league budget for sir chris

 

[ormester]

rubbish budget when getting 100 million plus for going up

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

Everyone is guessing. It will be more than £20m I’m quite certain. You need that to buy two players capable of playing in the PL including wages. Not a chance it’s £20m. Rubbish.

 

[Sean Thornton]

So that means its bound to be correct

I base everything I post on it.......
