    I understand it fully, but surely we could find some money for Johnstone, we seem to find money for new coaching staff ( how many do we need?) also money for garbage like Cole, Dobbin, also if things are that bad why sign Wildsmith when we have Griffiths, such a shame Johnstone going to Sheffield Utd

    It’s a great shame that we can’t afford him. He’d be such an asset.

    We don’t have money for transfer fees, signing on fees etc and literally every deal we try to do has to be put in front of the EFL bean counters to make sure we can afford it without breaking FFP rules.

    Perhaps read up a bit more about this Bomber, we are a gnats whisker away from being penalised.

    The only way we were buying him was if we sold Fellows, I’d rather keep Fellows.

    I read somewhere on the net that our present accounts (not released yet) could push us into deduction territory, unless some creative accounting can be conjured up. Squeaky bum time has apparently arrived early this year...

    100% agree with this.

    Also, after the Diangana signing I'm always very sceptical of signing loan players permanently, regardless of how well they've done.

    He did go missing towards the end of the season, so perhaps we got the best version of him when he arrived.

    Agree with you Bomber completely! Why not sell Griffiths, Grady and loan Wallace out to raise funds. Crazy! Grady is another Dike and Wallace now surplus to requirements and hid forbid if heÂ’s started in the striker role again!
