As this is the silly season, may I remind all, that if a player is going to cost £3 - 5M he will probably be looking for at least £20,000/ week. This would add another £1M/ per year. For some who want to take a "punt" on some players, or players who would enhance the squad by being on the bench, seems to me an expensive punt when wages are taken into consideration, and this would probably be for 2 or 3 years. The transfer fee is only the tip of the "iceberg". For me, for this salary he has to start and produce the goods.

A 19 year old Scotsman is not going to be on anywhere near 20k p/ wk, regardless of transfer fee. Wallace and McAuley have left and more will follow freeing up more wages. We are in a better position financially than last year and we don’t need a major rebuild.

Keep Believing!

Really hope you are right Bigman but I fear we may sell some of our best players, even if we get good money for them, its a big recruitment again really hope I'm wrong.
