Can you share some of your wealth with me, if you think five hundred thousand pounds is a pittance like you are implying.

If that was the case, why don't the selling club just accept it our bid? Not worth haggling over half a million eh?
All these clubs know we’re desperate for a striker or two and will do their very best to pull our pants down with a week to go. KS will have to be prepared to walk away from a deal and get his timing right to do a deal, so it may take until deadline day.

Hope he pulls his pants back up before he walks away or it could get embarrassing

Correct. It's going to get worse before it gets better in the negotiations.

You'd think they'd have thought about this facet before we got so far into this hole we've dug. :)
They wonder why
 
Are you saying he didn’t?
No, I’m saying he’s not a viable option as our main striker up to the January transfer window - and failure to bring another one in whilst we bed in Semedo and get Stewart fit again would be pathetic on our part.

He did well against Rotherham up front, but it’s worth remembering they are one of the favourites to go down.
 
We are nowhere near breaching FFP. This is a false narrative. See Chris Weatherspoon’s analysis on this subject. Not ‘paying enough’ for a striker is club policy around financial discipline not an attempt to avoid breaking FFP rules.
We are nowhere near breaching FFP in a single year - yet. Or maybe more accurately we weren't as per the last (league one) accounts. The bit that CWs article misses out entirely is the cumulative effect of transfers on FFP (although it is a good article). You can't spend all the allowance once and then ignore it the following year. Every transfer increases the total number across the whole period of the contracts. To put it into context, the total allowable losses (prior to owner funding) basically equates to making four £2m signings in one window. It doesn't take much to push things over the edge. That's before you consider whether it is responsible for an owner to load financial responsibilities onto the club that the club simply cannot sustain without massive owner input.

Of course we could roll the dice and throw every last penny we're allowed at promotion in one single year, but what would happen if we failed? Even if we did throw the maximum amount at it, we'd still be only the fourth best funded club at best.

Aye mate it’s a club policy. Dear me. Which number is it on the list like?

Yep, I think people have took that article as gospel and means the club are somehow trying to hide behind it.
Everything is relevant to revenue.
So 500k is a pittance to a PL team but quite significant in the championship. Got it.
