Billy Sharp

I thought we would probably spend 1-3 million, but if (?) we're offering nearly 3 million for 1 player then our budget must be at least 5 million. The problem is that we want the best and so does everyone else..still the big spenders can't buy them all.

£2.8m bid rejected. i think £2.8+Mills would push them to accept it

Sorry didn't see the post above!!

I think if we could get him for £3m it wouldn't be a bad deal especially if sharp scores15+ like he did this season. Heard rumour that were after seberovic from fiorentina on season long loan.

Even Pompey have managed to sign 2 players, though admittedly they are desperate. Have we really got no one or do you think they will be announced as a group (wishful thinking).

I agree Fran. How can a club that owed £120 million even afford the £400k AND wages for Pearce from Bournemouth? They are also being linked with £750k bid for Varney! Don't get me wrong, I would not want either player but the businesses that are owed money by the club must be wondering how this is allowed to happen!

Do people not think that 3 million for a striker who didn't make it at Sheffield United is a bit over the top? Especially considering how much Swansea paid for Graham from Watford.
