On the up it’s great as you can pick more members up
When things get fractured they can leave mid season too.
I’ve always been happy with the monthly payment bit and the phone contract style personally and it probably does cause people to roll over

A team in a Cup Final ending up playing with 10 men as no subs were allowed seemed to be a regular occurrence. Elton John’s cousin being a well known casualty.

Stratford?

I'm expecting a pretty rough start. I don't think Tufan, Seri and Oscar will be 100% match fit for the first few weeks. Sinik can't have done much in the last week either, and I'm not sure if Tetteh has had any pre season at all. That's not mentioning any more incomings either. If we can be around the top 10 at Xmas, we can look to push on in the new year.

There's still around 6 weeks to go of the window and we'll know how we're shaping up then. We're still wafer thin for me in many areas though

Ozan’s difference in the Malaga game compared to the Fenerbache game was like night and day. I think the latter 2 will be fine in 2 weeks, Ozan hopefully get his first full 90 at Bradford

I don't understand where the FFP talk is coming from. We've just sold KLP for at least £16m, and had one of the lowest wage bills in the league last year. Yes, some of the wages for the new players will be much higher but the wage bill still shouldn't be mad. It's like they're saying that we were reliant on selling KLP to fund the new arrivals but there appeared to be no rush or desire to let him go.

Maybe, being new to the English league, they want to make sure they are doing the right things, to avoid making a mistake. Very much how Tan works, cover's every possibility.

This would make sense as the mystery signing, however it’s not good news about it
 
Meyer would have been decent at championship level. I remember his name popping up years ago as "one to look out for". Not sure he's lived up to his potential but still would have been very good for us in that no. 10 role.

Funny, that's 2 no 10s we've lost to bloody Millwall..

When I made this point it was called overly negative, that we'd be spending a heap more money, etc.

Wouldn't be surprised if it's loans/cheapies from here to fill out the squad.

If we are risking falling foul of FFP, or getting close to our ceiling, then it's because we are looking at spending £39m over and above our income in a rolling 3 year period. Those are the FFP rules. Unless we're planning on spending up to that ceiling then FFP by its nature doesn't come into play.

That's a lot more money than just the KLP fee being spent (which in itself would be net zero in FFP terms) and suggests the board are looking at investing close to the maximum they are allowed to within the rules - which is what they alluded to when they took over, citing FFP headroom as one of the main reasons they bought us.

Without knowing contract details and signing on fees and projected turnover for the coming years, then no one outside the club or FA can realistically know what we've got left to play with, but consider a 'Seri type' signing could be on 30k a week which is a £4.5m + liability over 3 years - excluding any signing fees, there's only so many of those we can make within headroom, despite it being a 'free' transfer.

It's also worth remembering that loans can cost 7 figures at this level also, so aren't always a cheap option in the long run.
