Was speaking to a guy from NCISA yesterday

about the transfer budget situation and he was saying that at a meeting he raised the point of the lack of funds avaliable for transfer fees and it seems that when a player is signed using Hughes as an example, the wages are taken from money that is avaliable from the transfer kitty which means Hughes actually costs a million pounds. He argued that we had actually released more players than we had signed therefore covering wages of the new players but surprise surprise they wouldn't have it. I agree with the baron that we should have had a transfer kitty in the summer, we must be the first team to be relegated and not allow money for new players. The manager is not the only one to blame for the struggles we have had this season, I questioned the ambition of our board when we failed to strengthen sufficiently when we went up and there are questions to be asked of their lack of ambition again this season imo.
