Ng will be a City player by Weds as well
Where is the money coming from? Youve got to wonder why these funds werent available to Harris in the summer.
It's peanuts, and we're in trouble. We aren't paying 750k up front, and we won't be paying anywhere near 1m upfront for Watters. Also, we need them and it makes sense as we're getting value for Simpson and Ng (if that's true).Originally Posted by Hilts
Maybe they were and he couldn't find anyone to buy that he considered good value for money.
Club representatives and board members will say there is no money for obvious reasons. If Harris says "I've got 12 million to spend the cost of every olayer who's name he mentions will go up instantly
People on here over the last week and more have made statement about there being on money or we cannot afford this or that but there is nothing to back it up. VT has enough money for most of the things discussed on here, its just a matter of if he wishes to spend it
You think we should have done our transfer budget in the first window???
The money can come from only one place and we know where that is. I simply don't understand where the implied criticism is coming from given the amount of financial support that has been forthcoming, not only from transfers, but to keep the club afloat.
The vast majority are very grateful of Tans financial support.
Exactly, the money is coming from nowhere else is it, but imagine where we’d be if we’d have had astute, switched on, modern thinking managers spending it over the Tan years?
The january window is often associated with panic buys, we seem to at least be doing our business early and signing players who would be worth more but entering the last six months of their contract.
My reaction has been "oh, that's pretty sensible" to all our rumoured deals, except Watters who I wanted us to be in for when Swansea were linked, so I'm delighted we're taking a chance on him.
Player recruitment is the one thing that Harris has done well this season (apart from Benkovic).
He's smashed it to be fair. It's his main saving grace, I'm semi interested in what he could do with his own team but he's too far gone now he's never going to win the fans over.
Harris has found his true position at the club as a scout. He isn't a Championship manager. No way!
Left footed centre back. Can play out from the back.
Of course he can. Theres no fans going to be in stadiums this season. If we can get off to a good start next season then of course he can particularly if we start performing with a team hes built.
Let's be honest, we're not signing world beaters here and the football is crap. We get completely blown away by any team that can pass, he's not going to be here long enough to fix that.
We seem to be targeting players at a better age which is good.
We dont need world beaters. Better than what weve got would be a start.
People expect us to mount a serious promotion challenge. We are miles off it.
Second player brought in from Bournemouth now. 24 year old, left-footer, needing games to develop but think that Semi Ajayi thread said we were on board for that.
We are miles off it this season.
We cant be splashing out for a play off challenge this season so maybe this is the start of a rebuild for next.
Im suprised weve spent any money.
This is 100% a rebuild. I don't think there's any doubt about that and I don't think Harris will be the manager to reap the benefits of these players.
Not sure why the board would be signing these players if Harris was earmarked to go at the end of this season ?
If true its good news, with the sad news about Sol, and Flint hardly likely to feature
This could be the competition for Nelson that will keep him on his toes
