We should have accepted the bid for Ashton in the summer

Yes he's great, but the money was big

I know someones going to say hindsights a great thing, but I did actually want Ashton to be sold in the summer before anyone does

Us adding 3 players at 2 million each, including midfielders could have been such a difference here

Instead we quite the striker that needs a midfield and didn't sign a midfield, and now that striker who was realistically worth 7.5m is now not worth 7.5m and 7.5m for him after 3 months is now currently silly money
