From what I'm hearing, you will have to adjust your signing rumours as it seems Warburton's playing budget for next year will increase by just £3.7m or by £4.8m if we win the Scottish Cup and qualify for Europe. This money will have to take care of transfer fees (if any) , wages and agent fees. This will be boosted by any wages saved on players who leave, possibly another £500-600k. So I can't see anything but Bosmans here if we are looking at adding about six players, but there are going to be a few juicy ones available, so good luck to the gaffer in that market.

That's a good budget.

There's a few leaving in the summer. Templeton, Shiels, Law, Clark, and hopefully Bell. So there will be a lot of money saved. Warburton said 5 or 6 but he's already signed Crooks and Windass. He'll be going back in to the loan market too. I expect us to spend our summer budget on 4 players of the highest quality. Good enough to walk straight in to any team in the country.

Did you see the bench today, PigeonStrangler? We need a lot more than four if those you suggest do leave. Including the two signings, we've got a squad of about 20 and if 5 go that's just 15 for the SPL and, hopefully, Europe. We need at least another six, maybe more, and £4.8m pluss those saved wages won't stretch to transfer fees of any size. Being realistic here, that's all.
