Thanks for the response

 

Their owner said that they wouldn't be going for it like last season. Said that already.

 

The article did also say other fans could put forward a request to attend one of these monthly meetings so why dont you toodle along and give them the benefit of your wisdom and business prowess Fordy?

 

£1.85m

 

for me its enough to be successful if we spend correctly. Our failure last season wasn't that we weren't financially backed despite these weird constant rumours that we're broke. It was that we absolutely pissed all of that money up against the wall and wasted it. Now we actually have a man who's done things in football rather than a megalomaniac billy bullshitter who's in charge of recruitment, I'm much more optimistic.

 

You can believe what you want, best just wait and see what happens if Ol ever does move! Lol

 

All the fans need to know is we will be competitive. We could say what last seasons budget was and say it’s less than that and that this seasons budget is impacted by the players left behind.

Only Bowyer needs to know what he has to spend and what he needs to clear out. We don’t. Despite what people claim about the club being “more open”

There’s a fine line imo. It’s clear from every statement we have had Rupp is covering the debt and again reiterated it in this meeting. But the fans still don’t believe him, particularly on here. I’d tell them only what they need to know. The proof is out on the pitch.

it’s clear we want to get rid of what we have to sign new players as a league two club. Come on

 

It’s 2.6 million. Regardless of who goes. That’s what I read it as

 

I was thinking £1 million for new players, but you are right 2.6 million is a good budget.

 

He may do but he isn’t openly telling people how much they have to spend is he?

It’s still a decent budget for league two and agents will see that and what we’ve got and squeeze more out of us.

 

Yes, but at the moment he has £1 million to recruit new players, but the situation is fluid.

 

Yes not all had those relegation reductions in their contracts. My guess is that Doyle won’t have!

 

Thought it had been reproted that all players signed last summer had this cluase in their contracts

 

I hope so if he’s on £5,000 a week !!!

 

Me too, but somehow I doubt it given he was demanding high wages!

 

Agents will be rubbing their hands together.

 

Viewing another forum, “money bags” Forest Green are expected to have a similar playing budget this season as per last - thought to be £1.5-£2m.

 

Just 6, you've missed a digit from the 10's column !

 

it's decent, but by no means will it be "by far the largest in the league"
it'd be enough to get to the play offs if the game was played on paper, but I don't think it'll be the biggest and by no means should we be walking it.
