They’re about to spend 30m on a forward called Beto but I also thought they had breached ffpOh I expect they'll be deep in the relegation battle after Christmas, but so will Everton, and Forest, and Sheff utd and maybe Palace and Fulham. Luton will need to maximise their home advantage and make that tiny ground a fortress. Its a huge challenge for them, but it will be interesting to see it play out.
Incidentally, I may be wrong but arnt Everton still at risk of a points deduction under ffp rules?

Oh dear! That will kill off their title challengeIncidentally, I may be wrong but arnt Everton still at risk of a points deduction under ffp rules?
I think Scandinavian clubs will generally have to sell out of their league at non ideal times for them as that's when all the clubs that pay good money are active.Clearly isn’t happening is it? Viking in the throes of a league title battle (the season finishes in December) and def don’t want him to go until the new year. Not sure if we were ever really in the hunt for him, Slovenian press has gone v quiet about his move since the bid from FCM was rejected.
Next season in the Championship hopefully.Oh dear! That will kill off their title challenge
Some reports Leeds may be in for Brekalo and might be willing to bid £5.5m
One report at least.
Exclusive: Leeds Utd join chase for Viking defender - Ontheminute.com
Leeds United are considering making a move for Viking defender David Brekalo before the transfer window closes on Friday. Brekalo has become a key player for Viking and has impressed for Slovenia in recent years leading to interest from a number of clubs around Europe. Earlier this summer Viking...www.ontheminute.com
This site also reports they’re after Djed Spence on loan from Spurs.
Leeds had a dreadful summer window until last week when they signed Piroe. They’ll lose two big players this week but It’s all about saving face by bringing in some new faces.
One report at least.

Are us and Leeds using the same scout or do the media just link us to a player available, as they think we both have the same pulling power in this league.
Ffs, hate Leeds they can do one! I was really hoping we’d get him in and it’d be a sneaky coup that we managed to pull off.Viking fans saying they are braced for Brekalo to leave in the next 24hrs. Looks like Leeds are willing to pay a lot more than us for him.
The relegated teams really flexing their muscles this year and showing how completely unbalanced it is.Ffs, hate Leeds they can do one! I was really hoping we’d get him in and it’d be a sneaky coup that we managed to pull off.
Are we ?Probably why were going back in for Kitching
We should Nick Nonto
Absolutely, they need to sort the parachute payments out as it’s completely unfair on the rest of the Championship. We did unbelievably well last season but it was mainly down to good training and two very good players. Imagine how we’d have finished if we didn’t have Vik & Gus. These cheap gems are out there but I imagine it takes a lot of scouting and a lot of luck. Compare that with the vast sums of money Leicester, Leeds or Southampton can spend on players and wages, it’s plain wrong. Yes they need to be able to pay existing players contracts etc but they shouldn’t be allowed to spend a large chunk of that money on new signings, there should only be a portion of that allowed for new signings, or something like that anyway. Just seems completely biased in my opinion.The relegated teams really flexing their muscles this year and showing how completely unbalanced it is.

Southampton have received well over £100 million in transfer income this window, Leicester will likely have received something close to it, Leeds less sure. But even without the parachute money they'd still be able to outspend the rest of the league.Absolutely, they need to sort the parachute payments out as it’s completely unfair on the rest of the Championship.

Foooo just got 'Brekalo not dead yet'
I'm assuming it means transfer wise not that he's passed away
Kelly said two players were being shown around Ryton yesterday....

Yeah very true and obvs that’s still a problem but I feel that after they’ve sold those players then at least they’re only relying on that money generated from players sold rather than also having parachute payments to rely on as a back-up. The way it is currently teams like Leicester, Leeds etc can sell top players and generate say £100 mil income and then on top of that they’ll get another £90 million (according to some sources) over the next 3 years. You compare that with what a club like Rotherham has, it’s just astronomically different.Southampton have received well over £100 million in transfer income this window, Leicester will likely have received something close to it, Leeds less sure. But even without the parachute money they'd still be able to outspend the rest of the league.
Dying to join us perhaps?oooo just got 'Brekalo not dead yet'

They've just found him in the truck with the kit after they thought things had gone quiet.oooo just got 'Brekalo not dead yet'
