Interesting Bolton have spent that money on a player when they have to drop someone from their nominated squad to fit him in as they are already at the limit. They are also saying they will target 2-3 more. That sounds a big squad to me. I wonder how their manager fits them all on one training pitch at the same time.
From what I heard, they sold a lot more half and half scarves in the Wrexham game than we did which has massively boosted their transfer budget.
Probably because we rejected a very decent bid for him.
If it's true, fair play to the club, I'm under the impression it is.
i honestly don’t think our owners have done anything bad since they have been here mate. They are putting money in (maybe not as much as we would like but that’s their call) and to turn a decent offer down for jones shows to me that they have ambition

You say that, but what if this time next year they don't want to continue funding the losses? Which will be hefty staying in this League, We need a little more ambition/ investment now to get us promoted IMHO. None of us enjoy watching playing League1 football!
Joe Taylor is a frustrating one. Would have been one that would have been a real statement even if it's not really a position of need , he's a proven goalscorer at this level with resale value too.

Joe Taylor is an interesting one. First couple of years as a professional, he didn’t play much and wasn’t overly good. Then last year he had unbelievable year half in league two and half in league one. Moved up to the championship this year and hasn’t done anything. Is he a one season wonder or was the championship move just too soon for a young player. It is hard to tell with a forward who is primarily a poacher and not a traditional center forward
I don't know why you bother lads. We ain't signing anyone.....certainly no-one decent. A few waif & strays will leave but ultimately come February we wont have strengthened enough to make a challenge for the top 6.
Pete O'Rourke saying Wigan have made a bid for Wiredu. Can see why people would be disappointed it's not us but not sure he would get into the team ahead of Jones

On paper, it's an excellent signing, and makes up for them missing out on Alfie May in the summer.
I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Wycombe drift out of the top2 and Huddersfield take their spot. Which if I'm honest, I'd be fairly happy with. There's only 2 teams I wouldn't want to face in the play-offs if we were to make it, and it's them and Birmingham. I feel everyone else is fair game.

Fair play to Bolton.

Not sure how I messed that up.

Played under Regis Le Bris at Lorient but still one of the craziest championship signings ever.
Wycombe signing this lad suggests that any deal for Jones has died.
Which will be hefty staying in this League, We need a little more ambition/ investment now to get us promoted IMHO.
