It feels to me like the budget is quite substantially lower than last year.

It’s more

 

[better days]

It's not sensible for us to be demanding to know the level of our budget while the club are discussing players with other clubs

 

[SkyblueDad]

It’s more

At the moment though it doesn’t look like we have spent more than last season, looks less to me not sure which budget Sheaf came out of but with the Hamer and Walker fees together they were about £2million then there was a bit for Reid and Taveres later. At the minute fee wise I think we have only paid money for Gyokeres.

I don’t remember a time in my life where we weren’t due to sign him

It’s not just money spent, it’s wages too. Moore and Waghorn will be on relatively large wages compared to those they replaced

1 million quid on wankhorn's wages too. Cheers @shmmeee

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

And we haven’t sold anyone…”the model” fails at the first hurdle if there’s nobody interested in our players.

Is it ? Who told you that ?

 

[Greggs]

And we haven’t sold anyone…”the model” fails at the first hurdle if there’s nobody interested in our players.

Or perhaps we are just valuing our assets a bit more realistically now. Hopefully the days of us selling our best players for peanuts have gone?

 

[SkyblueDad]

I get that, this is the first season for a while where we haven’t sold a player for a decent fee.

How do you know what the players contract is? Or does it just fit your campaign?

 

[David O'Day]

Is it ? Who told you that ?

That's just over 19k a week, doubt we are paying that much

 

[SkyblueDad]

We aren’t. And whatever wages Waghorn is on if it wasn’t him it would be someone else.

 

[Greggs]

Ok. Do you remember Derby paid 5 millon quid for him a few years ago, he'd have been a very high earner and that;s common knowledge. I'd hazard a guess he's taken a signifigant pay cut and will be on between 5-10 grand a week, so lets say 7.5 grand and keep things nice. £7500 a week multiplied by the 104 weeks of his contract gives you a total of £780000 - not too shy of a million quid. No campaign here pal, chill out.

 

[Greggs]

he's on a 2 year contract you daft c**t

 

[CDK]

We can't be paying waghorn 19,000 weekly no chance.it does feel like we spent more last season.walker hamer fees paid COH worth the money wages ,but doubt he's on 19000 pounds weekly.

 

[Greggs]

dont listen to that dickhead. He's on a 2 year contract. 10k a week makes the million quid

 

[ccfc1234]

I suspect it is 10k a week and I hope for that he delivers as that will make him a top end earner. I think people in the thread are looking at year on year costs not 2 year liabilities.

Who’s Waghorn ?

 

[cc84cov]

I suspect it is 10k a week and I hope for that he delivers as that will make him a top end earner. I think people in the thread are looking at year on year costs not 2 year liabilities.

12K a week minimum defo highest earner

 

[cc84cov]

It’s not just money spent, it’s wages too. Moore and Waghorn will be on relatively large wages compared to those they replaced

Also decent signing on fees with free transfers

 

[Greggs]

Well fool them as we cant just stop paying him after a fucking year can we???!!!

 

[Ccfcisparks]

I forgot we had you who was ITK

 

[shmmeee]

How is hopeful to lose your best player or one of your other brightest prospects? Bizarre logic.

Only hope of having enough money to make some signings. Not win the fucking league you lemon.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Yes it's utterly stupid, you're talking about signings that are likely back up to a first 11 here. It's like selling your boiler to buy more radiators

 

[shmmeee]

Im saying there’s no money unless we sell and we only have two players we could sell. That’s it.

Calm down. No one is advocating selling anyone.

Also that’s the worst analogy I’ve seen on here and I’ve been responsible for some belters. Good job

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

It's robbing Peter to pay Paul unfortunately. We sell one of our best players to get enough bodies in defence then we just have another problem in a different part of the pitch.

It is a bit of a shit analogy yes

 

[JimmyHillsbeard]

Kelvin Wilson. In our relegation from league one season Mowbray spent the entire summer chasing this one player and didn’t go for anyone else. He’d just left a contract on 25k a week at Forest - was never going to drop down to what we were offering

sorry wasn’t trying to be massively smartarse (only slightly) but this is exactly the point I was making. Mowbray wasted a close season trying to land Wilson at the expense of other targets and it can’t have helped our very poor start to the relegation season

 

[Calista]

It is a bit of a shit analogy yes

Yeah that boiler and radiator analogy was all wrong. To me, it’s more like turning up the thermostat using the dial in the kitchen, only to find that the window in the back bedroom has been left open and the lagging on the pipes in the outside bog has come away, causing condensation and some persistent mould around the cistern.

 

[junglej13]

So does the whole Clarke-Salter deal now look unlikely now?

Foundations of a Chaplin thread this one

Marosi was sold for a presumably modest u disclosed fee.

Didn’t someone say Shrewsbury’s biggest transfer fee was 100k
