No but sooner the back 5 are playing together the better. We most likely will get the deal done but after haggling over a couple of grand. Surely sami job is made a lot easier if transfers are done early and he can concentrate on managing !!
No.
We refused to pay Grabban what he wanted, probably partly due to the fact that at the time, he'd had half a good season in the Championship despite being 26.
We are seemingly still negotiating with Ward, but didn't want to pay a left back 13k a week, and I'd say 99% of fans would agree.
There's a club about 40 miles along the coast who did what you seem to want us to do, and look how that ended

If 3k is going to put the club in to financial difficulty then the club is in a worst state than I thought.

Only 3k a week, is 150k a year, is 450k if its for a 3 year deal.

It isn't all about the extra £3k a week to one player , all the rest would expect a pay rise too when they're due a new deal.

It's not just 3k a week though, it's the knock on effects. Others will want the same or even a higher wage, so can lead to the club paying higher wages overall and can also damage the atmosphere within the club.
Yeah £3k a week is a massive amount of money over the course of a 3 year contract, plus if you give it to one player they will all want it. Then the club would be in the state that you now think we are!

So using that basis we won't ever sign anyone again on wages higher than our current highest.

So basically you've just described any football club, ever.
Look, either come out and say HOW you know what the dealings are, or shut the **** up instead of trying to sound intellectual.
Yep, why not just give all players the extra 3k a week and save time haggling.
Thank the chuffing lord you aren't in charge of anything finance related at the club.

By 'we' do you mean Tony Bloom, who you appear to infer is a cad and a bounder for not sanctioning £20,000 a week signings, or are you referring to your own financial contribution to the club?
