I'm sure even I'll get bored of it sooner rather than later.  Yes, it was just a bit of a wind up from Speedy, suggesting that we weren't spending anywhere near what was being claimed due to the fees being 'undisclosed'.  No malice anywhere.  On 23/07/2019 at 20:36, speedy69 said: You haven't spent a bean yet, 2 frees, the rest undisclosed 😂 Actually Brooker, this is probably the post that started it, as you can see, difficult not to have a joke over after all the signings we've made. Even at the time it was laughable as we'd already signed quite a few. 😂 Edited August 2, 2019 by Moistened Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

In todays market it's the going price for a goalscorer. Whether he will cut at at PL we will see, but I trust Wilder's judgement. Edited August 2, 2019 by Moistened Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Why is it indefensible? are you querying the prices paid or my judgement of McBurnie? The price is above average, although a 20 goal a season Championship striker at his age is still a £10-15 million player.  I also think that he's a very good player, who could hack it at PL level.  So both, but they're just our opinions!  Oh, just the 'spent nowt' thing in regards to the indefensible comment, although I'm sure that was firmly tongue in cheek. The rest is fair, and just your opinion. Edited August 2, 2019 by Moistened Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
