    Not a neigh point when we all commented last season and in the champ how well our squad get on with each other and how there seems to be a strong team spirit.

    Agree with above, I forgot to mention his work ethic on the pitch seems admirable.

    Why?


    It's the quality of player we're after.


    It didn't do us much good when we were chucking fortunes at Abe, Gallagher and Mills.

    These players we've got will end up being on bigger wages for sure, because they're worth it. But right now, on their current contracts (which they're happy with), nobody is complaining.

    Yeah but like any side coming into the prem looking to actually stay up you will need to sign at least 6/7 players to play in or compete for the first 11. With a 30k limit you won't get the kind of quality of player we went for last summer.

    And you expect any different from Nigel Pearson?

    I'm not certain but I swear I saw it mentioned aplenty that Albrigton turned down a new deal at Villa because he wanted at least 40k per week which Leicester were willing to offer him....?

    I'd argue that you paid so much on your wages because you went for players who already play in England.

    You've had to give fat wedges to Huddlestone, Davies and Livermore because they were already on them at Spurs and Birmingham.

    I trust Steve Walsh with our 30k wage budget. He's been nothing short of a miracle worker since he returned to the club.


    Also, just because you had to sign loads to stay up doesn't mean everyone does.

    We won the league with 102 points. You scraped second with 79. To compare us would be idiotic.

    Wages are up with all the extra money pouring in (transfer costs to of course). The quality of players you need will cost more than 30k a week. I expect you are wrong and you will end up paying people more than 30k if not this window then in January. It is just not realistic that you are going to get quality players like Hudd on a 25k a week salary.

    Further proof he's a fellow traveller like GB. Bet he's took one look at Walton st and put a bid in to have it tarmac'd.

    Let's compare you with Cardiff then. One or two signing should just about do it then, right?

    His head looks too big in proportion to his body. Can't be good for balance. No re-sale value. Needs a shave. Scottish. Slow.

    I'm out.
