    Suspect we're in the top 6, but I suspect the likes of Derby, Wednesday and Ipswich are spending big, Peterborough I'm not sure, always feel they spend well, but sensibly. 

    Pompey and Barnsley I suspect we're in the ballpark, and Wycombe have spent, but not massively, and are heavily reliant on their owners pumping the cash in. 

    But it's a budget that should allow us to be competitive in this league 
    Was speaking to my Peterborough supporting mate the other day. He reckons they don’t pay very high wages compared to the competition but some players accept it because the they have a reputation of moving players on to much bigger clubs. They also pay big fees for strikers and forwards. They regularly pay in excess of £1m but usually move them on for a sizeable profit. My mate reckons they lose roughly about the same amount as Charlton do a year.

    They don't lose anywhere near what we do.  They don't have the over heads we do.

    They have nailed the speculate to accumulate model though.

    Anyway back to talking about transfers instead of budgets.  We know we are looking to upgrade at wide forward/winger and fullback,  my biggest fear is that we aren’t looking at another center half.  I just don’t think some combination of innis, O’Connell and Lavelle is good enough to get promoted.  
    Garner mentioned bringing in one or two attacking options, I don’t think he confirmed we’re after a full back? I think a CB is more likely given we only have three senior players there.
    And perhaps he'll be a CB who can also comfortably  cover at LB?

    Can someone point me in the direction of the official league one budget website?


    Thought not.
    www.league1budgets.co.uk

    Seriously though you can look at the accounts on Companies House Web site and they will give you a good idea.
    Does it cover the undisclosed deals because a vast amount of transfers fall into this bracket now.

    A clubs accounts have to cover all income whether undisclosed or not. The issue is the money is usually spread over a period of time and accounts can normally only be seen a year in arrears at best.

    Yes but the biggest bench mark is wages.

    Teamwork makes the dream work 
  • I think we’ll bring in another one by the end of the week.

    We can’t sign anyone until Richard Cawley is back from holiday.

    Spoke to ts we have 4th biggest budget in league 1
    How does he even know what other teams budgets are? Chatting bollocks as usual old Tommy 
    How do you know he doesn’t…..he has a very experienced person in Steve Gallen who will no doubt be constantly passing on pertinent information.
    You say he’s talking bollocks as if to slag him off.
    All people involved in the football transfer market will say what they think is the best thing to say at any given moment because at the end of the day, it’s a game of poker.
    It doesn’t bother me a jot whether he, Gallen and Garner are saying different things…..they are white lies anyway as far as I’m concerned.
    Tell me anyone in professional football who openly tells the truth regarding their transfer budget…..I can’t think of one?
    Transfer budget and total budget are being interchanged here.  I don't think everyone is talking about the same thing, which is confusing matters.

    Thomas, Garner, Gallen et al will know the total budget of every club in the division.  Because the EFL tells them.

    What they won't know is how much anyone else is prepared to pay for something.  They can make an educated guess.

    This isn't a question aimed at anyone especially but if Accrington spend 200k more on transfer fees than us but our wage bill is 2 million higher, who has the bigger budget?
  • Transfer rumours, anyone?
  • Rak-Sakyi played full reserve game for Palace this evening. 
  • Needs to find is bloody pen .
    You not a bit old for autographs?

  • He said we’re short of defenders with Egbo being out injured….so full back cover would seem more likely.

    Completely get the early concerns about O’Connell but hopefully he will come good. If not we have Lavelle, Ness, Elerewe (on recall) and even Clare as an option to play there instead. I would also like another CB (bearing in mind Inniss could breakdown at any min) but we atleast have more options there than we have at full back. If Sessegnon gets injured we have to play a winger (Claydon) there and if Clare gets injured we have to play a CB at RB (Ness or Barker etc).
    Badly need a left footed centre back and a left footed LB.

    Very little chance of getting both I'd say, more likely to get one left footed defender who can cover both in a pinch.
  • Where’s Chuks ? Any prospect of seeing him before Christmas?
    Yes in a red suit & a white beard hohoho
  • Was told today club still very confident we will get JRS, just needs to sign his palace contract and it will happen.
    He must be a slow reader.....he's had the new contract for over a  week how.

    Is it that odd for negotiations to last a week? I assume not.

    I would have thought that a week is the bare minimum it would take, sometimes it can take months.
  • I’m hoping the likes of jfc and gilbey have got the message and move on - goal scorer needed anc we need to throw everything at it
