Didn't Oxford spend £3.5m on a Dutch midfielder breaking their Transfer Record thus making it PNE with the lowest budget?Given the teams who have come up this season, I wouldn't be surprised to see our budget as the second lowest in the division, after Oxford. Probably close between us and Pompey.

Might have been a stag do on their way to Blackpool. Stopped off for a gypsies kiss. 😂😂A friend of mine who sits in the Invincibles said that before the last home game v Leicester there were a fleet of Black Mercedes vans parked on Lowthorpe Road pre-game….
He said that several Middle East / Saudi looking gents emerged from the vehicles….
I told him to post it on here but he didn’t want to..
There might be nothing in it , but it does seem unusual..
That suggests that maybe there was money available to spend on some attacking players but they pulled the money, when they knew that there was serious interest in buying the club……Club are working hard to close two deals.
Highly unlikely that any deal regards the sale of the club is completed before the close of the window. Apparently it's past the feeling out stage, might hear something after the close of the window.
Where have you got this from Ashleigh?Club are working hard to close two deals.

Don’t tell him Ash, Idi could be PR in disguise…Where have you got this from Ashleigh?
I think they have a fixed budget of around £5m per season all in. This has to stretch across the two windows though.Someone correct me if I am wrong but fairly certain Blackburn operate on a bigger budget than us. Sure the Venky's are putting significantly more in per season. Though not sure what their current situation is with the Indian government stopping them and they did get a large fee for Wharton.
They have raised quite a bit through player sales this summer though to aid them:
Brittain sold for £2.5m
Rankin Costello sold for £1m
Buckley sold for £1m
Travis sold for £2.5m
Leonard is about to be sold for £1m to Posh.
It is rumoured that they have self imposed a 10k a week wage cap. This might hinder them in the British market, but not in the lesser heard of places abroad. Baradji and Moroshita are two steals. Gudjohnsen would be another. Really don't want Browney going there.
Sorry, but regrading The two deals is that players ore interested parties regarding buying the clubClub are working hard to close two deals.

Always seems to happen this with an Everton loanee.
Someone credible comes out and says done/almost done and then one of these many other pages comes out and nips it in the bud.
Not me. I’m just a mild mannered janitor.Don’t tell him Ash, Idi could be PR in disguise…
I have gone to a couple of games recently dressed as an Arab though.

"Close two deals" would mean players as can't close two sales of the club, as much as they would like to 😄Sorry, but regrading The two deals is that players ore interested parties regarding buying the club

Still scarred after the whole Cannon saga that went on all summer long.
Learned that its best to believe credible journalists rather than the ones working for Talksport and TEAMtalk.

Interesting comments by PH In his latest interview on BBC. "If he was at a different club, his team would probably look a lot different" hinting at what he might be capable of given more to play with indirectly?
okkels deal could be announced today. Poor guy never got a proper chance, we just don't play in a system were he will get any real game time.
As for incomings...
Might take until deadline day to get them over the line.
