[cite]Posted By: Oggy Red[/cite]Anyone notice that, apart from a couple of young player loans, Championship clubs are not signing any players from the Prem?
There always used to be a steady trickle of Prem players to Championship, but not so far this year it would seem.
No doubt wages & signing on fees are just too high.
Cos the pay gap is growing. I.e. A Prem squad player would rather pay 5mins a week on £15k p/w than play 90mins a week on £7k p/w

That fee was for a young French kid and they haven't paid 1.2m straight away.
Watford -> Sheff Utd £2m
Daniel Parejo - Real Madrid - QPR (season long loan)

Let's see how he'll adapt to Championship football.
Blackpool have sold a few key players this summer. Can see them struggling
Also I see Dowie and Simon Walton are both at QPR. What a waste Walton was
Did anyone hear Pards in his interview say that we missed out on a player yesterday. I would guess that this was the guy.
