Remember my words I used not long ago ‘creative accounting’ is only way our target deals will be achieved. Selling clubs trying to have us over a barrel. Looking very, very good. 95+% out in the media is bang on;)

so we are trying for Bale (y) :whistle:

dragon1 again, on bale:
No deal is close

Madrid are willing

Barnett will not consider a loan

We have a wage cap of about 250-260 a week it’s what Kane’s on and what we offered Eriksen , right now Barnett wants much much more for his player , if bale was 25 and always fit maybe levy would budge but he is neither unless someth8ng radically changes the next 5 days he ain’t coming
I've got to say on this one that Levy is spot on. Paying more than 260K a week would be crazy. I'd rather see the money spent on signings for the future.

Assuming it is fourth and not Foyth I guess it means we can't get any worthwhile big money players to make the difference now so there's no point throwing big money at players who aren't worth it because the odds are they won't get us fourth anyway and let's face it the odds are well against it. We are neck and neck with four other clubs and that's only to be the club that catches fourth who are well away not to mention the other five clubs we're only a long neck ahead of.
I'm inclined to agree if it means we take that view resolving to do the business in the summer because we are going to have to do that anyway if we buy the makeshift players now.
In the cold light of day I see Dragon's ITK as positive not negative.

Wouldnt the purpose of making big signings now be so we they dont go elsewhere especially as the manager is known to be a big fan of them and having 6 months now to get used to the league would be advantageous. By all means if we can get them in the summer for 20 mill less then I understand but if we miss out on them altogether?
