Transfer Kitty

[Zatara]

Now we've pretty much offloaded Jelavic and have brought in McGeady, how much cash is left since Martinez joined?

Ins
McCarthy 13mil
Kone 6mil
Robles 1.75 mil
MCGeady 1mil
Alcaraz Free
Lukaku unknown
Barry unknown
Deulofeu unknown
Total - 21.75mil


Outs
Fellaini 28.5mil
Anichebe 6mil
Jelavic 5.5mil
Total 40mil

So we have 18.25mil here less the cost of agent fees and signing on bonuses.

How much are we likely to have left over now?

25p and a curly wurly.

 

[Skint out]

Probably 13-14mil I would say.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Probably zero now that we've spent the summer transfer kitty on Aiden McGeady.

"a few bob"

We've increased our wage expenditure as well, with those 3 players out and 8 in, but we should still have enough in the tank for a 10m-ish player.

Really?

You should know perfectly well that x amount in DOES NOT equal x amount out.

We probably have enough left to buy everyone in the squad a bag of Gary Lineker Cheese and Onion crisps

 

[anyone]

We are saving money on wages too.

We've increased our wage budget as well, but we should still have enough in the tank for a 10m-ish player.

We are saving money on wages too.

I'd go with me looking at the ins and outs

We've increased our wage expenditure as well...

Hmmm....

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

I'd be surprised if we had more than £10m.

 

[Furey1878]

Ahhh FFS Clint!

Depends where our wages are compared to income.

Last few years our income's been so low compared to wages, agent fees and other basic expenditure that we've had to use transfer money to pay bills. So not all the money that came in went back out.

No-one's entirely sure what our current income is with the new tv deal or what our wages currently are (we did lsoe our three highest paid staff in the summer and likely will lose the 4th (heitinga) shortly).

If it's dropped to our wages only being 60-70% of our income again then I imagine our money spent on transfers will go up closer to 0 net then -10 net, if it hasn't it won't.
