    Tough ****, he started the £60m story off with nothing other than his imagination and has now started changing the narrative now his arse is twitching and he realises he made up a bs story that could make him look idiotic........AGAIN.

    No. He said £60m. He locked in and doubled down on £60m. Certain people lapped this story up and dug themselves into trenches over it. Now he's moving goalposts and so are certain other people. After all "£60m is a great amount to spend in a transfer window" in the year 2022.

    I never saw that I saw 60 + this and that and ultimately I don't really care. I voted 90 to 110.

    People on some weird Luke Edwards crusade <laugh>

    He's played you all like a pack of cards.

    Not really, when someone can smell bullshit, and they call bullshit, they aren't being played, they're simply calling out a repeated bullshitter. Nothing more and nothing less.

    I see the way people react.. It's why I press those buttons truth be told.

    He's covered 60 to 100 plus everything such as players sales and other things.

    Nufc fans will say it was more than 60 and he'll point out what they've ignored.

    both sides are as bad as the other.

    I think he should simply stick to reporting the news, matches, transfers, appointments once they've happened. He's better at that than he is at opinion pieces and speculation. Those things however do not work in today's world where click bait is what matters more to these people (journo's not Luke in particular)

    Journalists hear bits and bobs and report it. They all get things right and wrong. I don't know why people get so angry it's just some guy telling them what he's hearing and thinks.

    The fans go after them, he defends his position and it's a never ending cycle.

    The amount isn't even important if you think about it. It's what you get.

    I will now continue to use Luke Edwards to irritate everyone though... It's just funny man lads... We're the next galacticos

    Everyone will have their own favourite journalists etc. Some people like Luke Edwards. I personally think he is a tosser. I think he lost his number 1 story source quite some time ago and I think the inner echelons of SJP have been locked tighter than a convents shower room.

    We might not spend another penny. I highly doubt it, but again they were all opinions. As factually correct with as much source as Luke Edwards used in his. Difference being - I have no evidence of any poster on here having done a YouTube show and admit they make up bollox to antagonise their customer base.

    To be fair he's far more factually correct than Edwards - That, however is mainly due to the fact the players in question are preparing for their testimonial matches by the time he reports it :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    ultimately we all have the same evidence and we predicted the spend amount.... If it ends up being 60 to 100 he's got your ass because you voted 140 plus and if its 140 plus you'll be claiming his ass and mine, so let's not try to bullshit here.

    Ultimately if you guys are right you'll all be on here mocking me, so if you guys are wrong I won't hesitate to remind you.

    You know what I'm saying is true though... If it's 140 million I'll be taking shots on here, so I won't hold back if its less.

    I will yield no tap dancing because I'm a reasonable guy, but we'll have to see if you guys start tap dancing.

    FWIW - I don't believe there is a transfer budget. Don't think there ever has been one. They've said they would be fluid all along whilst keeping FFP in mind.
