Hahaha, he,s just inboxed me

Said we signed a striker a hour ago no names as of yet but il be the first to know when he does, and the schmeichel deal looks closer because hobbs and fryatt are reluctant to move to the radius bruce/allams have implemented.

Thats all i have at the moment dying to know who the striker is

love/hate you hutch. How long we gotta wait? Any clues on striker
 
Our transfer budget isn't capped at £15m, we'll be spending way more than that this season. I expect January will bring more money spent with it, plus potential departures to balance the books out. People need to think more long term. I think you'll see us spend between £18-20m this Summer at least, including fees for loan players.

E.g.

McGregor - £1.8m
Elmo -£2m
Davies - £3.5-4m
Austin - £4.5-5m
Hooper - £5.5-6m
Torres - £1.8m
Bridcutt - £4m (or an equivalent midfielder)

That's seven new faces, most who are are linked and are feasible targets, which roughly come in at a cool £23.1m, give or take a couple of hundred thousand. Even with variables, it's going to be in excess of £20m, assuming of course that's all the players SB wants and that's also excluding fees for loans which will inevitably come at some point this summer as well as a back up goalkeeper who, if he doesn't come on a free will be fetching a fee too.

This £15m is a made up figure even if it is made up by the Allams. Why should you just go by transfer fees when you can get loan players or free transfers. If we are paying out wages for loan players and free transfer it will affect the transfer fees we pay because there's less money available. If the £15m means anything it will mean the cash actually paid out in the season on transfer fees not the deal we strike over three years of payments.
 
Bagend aint it haha, i dont know bud the two posts are exactly what he sent me more or less, guessing both could be used in exchange, dont know all the details yet. I thought it was austin we,d signed until i read the press comment

So I assume it's not one of our primary striker targets?
