    And we only got Wyke so cheap because he had a minimum fee release clause. Ordinarily we’d have had to go higher to land him.

    Bottom line is who are these prolific goal scorers, are they available, do they want to uproot from where they are and can we afford the transfer fee and wages.....?

    Why would he lose £15 million a season? Please include additional TV Revenue, increased gate receipts, increased advertising revenue, increased match day sales etc......your approach is very very simplistic.....

    From the Too Soon thread, Rod alluded to the squad and respective contracts:

    I then responded that a rebuild would be required even if we stayed in League 1, just like this year:

    So you are never completely 'ready' for the coming season (whatever division or whether promotion) or we wouldn't have huge turnover and transfers each summer.....I just don't get the mentality?

    I think it would be nice to sign Webster but if Burton are willing to let him go;
    1) We can't afford him
    2) We will be unable to match the competition

    Neil Byrne to Donny looks like a done deal, surely a cb coming in for cover.

    Moxon would be good middle of the park cover , but no way on earth would Challenor allow him to go to a top six rival.

    Where has this come from
    He has not been the standard required for league one, so amazed he might be getting another gig at this level

    The quandary is i desperately dont want us panic buy and overpay for mediocrity in the remainder of this window but the other side of the coin is you have to be ready to seize an opportunity when its there. We are brilliantly placed and there are no guarantees if we wait until the summer and not a rebuild that we will be in this position again next season.

    Big week ahead and one that will highlight where we are as a club and our current ambitions

    One bit you omit. Every single club you mention , add Stockport, were bankrolled to get promotion through the leagues.

    Luton , financed by huge debt the others bankrolled by profligate owners .

    I’m not too clear about Southampton going back so far .?

    Many clubs have climbed the leagues at the expensive of momentous debt …..Ipswich well over £100m another …Until “ handed over “ to US “ Real Estate”
