I dont think that 4 permenant signings 1 loan and a few non players off the books is too bad for us. lets face facts.
The Ashton money.
Its probably gone or mostly gone. We bought earshaw for a high price and the rest has possibly been held on to because of the losses in the parachute payments. We may see some more funds being made available in the summer but it wont be much.
Green and Mckensie.
We dont know how much money we really will get or how much we have yet recieved. Some of the funds quoted may be based on appeances or stayin up etc. neither green nor Mckensie are playing and the hammers may join us down here next season so lets not hold our breath. and also we never knew how much money would be made available anyway.
Finally.
The market itself. I can sum it in few words "Rowan Vine ?2.5million". If that guy is really worth that price than my first name really is hairy. We know that that the january window can make player prices inflated remember how much we got for Ashton. I hope the will be some more money in the summer so the rebuilding can carry on. The problems we have are throuout the entire squad and at least the manager has seen that and not just thrown some expensive distractions at our squad.
P.S I read some people slagging the new boys before they have even had a chance to play. Brown's played a few minutes so far and if we think about it was brought it to play alonside earnie and hes not here. Give these guys a chance to try and keep us up or would you all rather have fleming, bobinson and hendo
