I'm very happy we didn't 'break the salary bank' for Moore. We have strikers. Just need to play to their strengths.
Ironically we've gone from a situation where we bought players for now who lasted six months and nobody for the future, to buying players for six months time when we need one now for the next six months.
Oh yeah. I am not saying we have no ambition. However, they need to get this striker over the line. Getting to be a fundamental weak point of our transfer policy.
i know not you it's just what some fans are saying, to be the biggest test will be how we spend the clarke money in the summer
Ipswich paying £30k a week for the last 14 weeks or so of the season is a hell of a lot less than we’ve paid for Mundle plus his wage so no idea why people think they’ll be breaking FFP.
Personally I would be happy with what we've got, play to the strengths of the players we have, continue to bring on our young players, don't change the way we play to accommodate a 'big' striker. To my mind, the model is working well, we're in a better position than we've been for many years with much better prospects going forward. I know it's a big ask in these days of instant gratification, but patience is a virtue, a little more from some of our fans would be welcome.
I respect the views of those who are hurt by Pritchard's departure, however, I loved him as a gifted link-up player. He was mint at his best.....and for his contributions towards SAFC, I wish him all the best. I don't concur with those who slag former players off who leave the club for reasons that we are not 100% privy to. Former players like Henderson (who has also upset some folk) Well I would welcome the lad back with open arms, without malice for football reasons, not his private matters that he may not be comfortable with either. Can we just not say stuff like - "**** you" to the lads who move on please....
it's not just him mind if you look at the wages to turnover it's something like 150% im sure it's need be around the 70% mark and that was before this window aswell
Lad at work is a Bolton ST holder, says that he’s gone off the boil recently and is a total arsehole behind the scenes.
I am not sure why the Premiere league allow teams to gamble financially on promotion from the EFL and if it goes wrong they could be screwed, obviously they dont give a ****
it's getting worse aswell FFP for championship clubs i'm sure wages to turnover are dropping again that's why parachute payment clubs are so much better off
Mundle tfr fee will be spread over 5 yrs, hence the 4.5 year deal I suspect. Ipswich overall spending is of real interest. Their owner can only fund £8m of debts, maybe that is enough still?
