OUR BUDGET FOR THIS SEASON LEAKED

Fri Jun 15, 2018 9:44 am

"Vincent doesn't mind me saying that our budget will be just over half of what Huddersfield's is, to give you some comparison"

Huddersfield reportably spent £58 mill last season, if we're going to spend just over half that would land us rigth about £34 mill.

Considering we have just spent about £13.5 mill, we should have about £20.5 MILLION LEFT!

£20m set aside for a proven striker.

Saying that I do believe from what I have seen is that we are building a team around Zohore. I just feel this could be a mistake.

That could be dangerous. Also considering we're trying to acquire 3 to 4 loanees and only 2 permament deals we have got a good chunk of money for only two players.

Don't mean to be pedantic but half of £58m is £29m not £34m. He did say "just over" half of course so you could be right.

Means we've spent about half of what we've got available if the figures are accurate.

They are not going to say we got 100 million to burn it would put all the transfer fees up

Huddersfield spent just over 43m last summer. (The 58m referred too is probably a combination of the summer and winter transfer windows). NW could be referring to Just the summer figure. Who knows & does it really matter? Either City spend the money or don’t, either they bring in some proven quality or go for some unearthed gems. All speculation but realistically I think we need to spend 35-45m in this window to have any chance of staying up.

A budget is generally over the whole season which would amount to them spending 58 mill, and yeh but it just gauges what players we can expect to bring in

I don't think we have a budget. Tan is a billionaire and I think he trusts Neil enough to make investments. The first 2 signings look this way.

Warnock is a clever man he could easily be saying this so clubs don’t try and rip us off if we are interested in a player

Any talk of budgets this time round is a smokescreen. This type of deception is necessary to provent us being screwed over - the club has learned a valuable lesson from last promotion. There will be a budget, but we’ll never know what that is unless we were sat in with vin and neil at their meeting. My view - spend as little as poss and happy to see hungry championship players arriving anyday instead of overpaid relegated prem Charlies. Essential we avoid mercenaries.

Huddersfields budget this year is £100Mil (maybe), so ours could be £50Mill :thumbup:

Who knows, it is what it is and we will have to do what we can with it :thumbup:

I think we’ll spend £40m in the end your not going to get much from anything less tbf and you can only go so far on freebies

The reference to Huddersfield’s budget was in reference to their wage bill, nothing to do with transfer fees amounts.
