Transfer targets.

[Ricky]

I would imagine they will


£20million to spend?

We were top at Christmas and spent £2million. You think we’ve gone right let’s increase it 10 fold.

£5million would be closer to the amount.

You're guessing.

I'm only going on what a good ITK suggested, as much as I don't believe it.

The indications are that Wilder's pleased with the budget and it's pretty substantial - around a mid table Championship budget. So I'm confident it'll be more than £5m.

 

[Blade58]

It is.
I was responding to the "CW doesn't do overseas players" post!

Would bringing him in to the academy be a CW decision or the head of the academy decision?

I'm only repeating what CW said previously that he doesn't know the overseas market hence we have none in our squad , but it is something he wishes to address

I’m not ITK but I know someone close to management team and he hasn’t hinted that it would be anywhere near £20million. He told me be around £5million to spend.

Which is a substantial increase on what we had last year.

rodders will know

To be honest anyone who thinks it’s £20million without a new investor on board is crackers. Teams with new investors don’t spend that.

We need to realise we won’t go boom or bust as CW has said himself many times. £20 million in one summer would be exactly this.

Players that command a few million pound fees will demand £20k + wages. Would cripple our club. Especially when you look at our recent accounts.

 

[Rodsready]

I can tell you now, it was nothing to do with the budget, why wilder stayed.

?

do you know the budget he's been given anyway?

 

[Rodsready]

?

No, I don't , but like I have said it's not the fees, it's the wages, he will not upset the rest of the team by signing a 20 grand a week player, them days have gone.

 

[Pinchy]

110%.

Do they know that you divulge confidential information?

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

I'll raise you.

This should be in "other sport"

 

[Rodsready]

Yes, probably said a bit to much, will stick to transfer targets next time.

 

[Rodley]

Egan £6-7m?! No fucking way!

If Wilder would consider paying more than half of that he wants his head looking at!

He didn't even start the season in Brentford's team. He was behind Harlee Dean, who they sold for about £2m.

He’s their club captain and they’d resist letting him go.

In which case we'd move on to other targets, rather than paying something insane.

It could have been an estate agent known as Wit for all I know, but it does show we have some sort of French scouting system!

 

[EddieColquhoun]

The player that visited the lane the other week, was a young French lad that we have been watching, a striker that would fit right in the way we play, again we will just have to wait and see.

Not saying that you were wrong or right, but an ITKer on BladesMad did say the player who visited was Dean Henderson a few days before he signed!

I'm confused as to what anyone is actually claiming to know

That was much too clear a message for this thread, you have to disguise what you want to say in limerick, Haiku, Enigma code or some sort of binary shift come morse hybrid.

Are you saying that
The person we’re signing is
Young Sam Gallagher?

I think we are signing Sam Gallagher. It just feels right, that's all.

..so the cat is finally out of the bag, Sam Morsy is signing....

Freudian slip if ever there was one!
