    Sounds like we ain’t got no dough going off the other forum … 
    Think that was said last summer too. There's no chance anyone on an internet forum actually knows what our budget is. 
    Other than Ronnie Moore, who says it’s £18m so we’ve got loads of money 
    I’ve heard the same figure 6 weeks ago 
    What does this supposed £18m figure relate to? Is it additional player budget funds compared to last season? It can’t be just transfer fees as they are spread over the duration of the contract and if we signed someone on a free they would likely be asking for more wages, £20k a week (an average wage in the Championship) is £1m a year, the same cost as paying a transfer fee of £3m on a 3 year contract. You cannot split transfers fee from wages, they are from the same pot. 
    All I got told was the figure for budget. Not sure if that is just fees or wages also. They are someone I trust. So we shall see 
     No worries, and as ever, thanks for sharing! From what others have just posted it sounds like it’s the entire playing budget, wages, and the yearly instalments of transfer fees. I suppose it means little unless we know what it was last year. If it was £20m last year then that’s not so good.

    What is it in relation to the rest of the Championship, there must be accurate figures from clubs financial results we could get a rough comparison.

    False info being spread … the 3 mill to run the women’s team does not come out of the men’s transfer budget.. the two teams are run totally separate … both have their own transfer budget as well

    We base too much importance on other club’s budgets in relation to ours, we are where we are, no point wasting time on the opposition, we have enough to worry about as it is…🤷‍♂️

    Last year budget was the 12 mill we got for going up also TV money that has been increased this season ..

    For a club like ours to be successful we need to do what Coventry did. A lot easier said than done quite obviously but you need to sign a few players that turn out to be superstars that sell for big money. You can then financially compete with the bigger spenders.

    It amazes me how so many people know the ins and out of our football club, they know the budget, they know where its coming from, they know everything, they even make up transfer rumours, as a certain someone says only believe whats on the charlton website or someone like crawley until then the rest is crap !!!
    "A certain someone"

     :'( 
    That wasnt a dig henry, but its the truest words there is only belive whats on the website

    Sheffield United have just sold winger Andre Brooks for around £9m. They’ve been interested in TC previously, wouldn’t be surprised if he’s still on their list

    Only poster worth listening to on there is @Goddenole

    Rest is fiction.
    How do you know that? Or is it just supposition. I post on there and I don’t post fiction. This inter forum rivalry gives me the real hump.

    Wouldn't surprise me at all if they come in for TC.

    Their version of Terry would have a heart attack working out how to differentiate between the two though

    I thought NJ was storming off somewhere since the meeting, and hasn't been seen since, or something

    Blimey. This thread really has reached a new low now.
    She might have been stunning.

    She was.
    Back in the 70's i worked at Cosmos house in Bromley Common. 
    Most people there were women,  (i enjoyed working there).
    Anyway one of the girls done a two page spread for Mayfair magazine. 
    This was in the days magazines were all you had.
    Anyway we had a good time together and then it finished. 
    She then went out with Ray Wilkins for a couple of months and I met him a few  times. 
    He was a really good bloke. 
    Wait, are you saying you spent some time with her or her 2 page spread? 

    The only spread he sees now is when he's buttering his toast.

    Without being dismissive, I don’t really recognise you as a poster. In that case, apologies. 

    Obviously there are some decent posters on there, but there is a massive amount of absolute waffle and fiction. 

    It’s not a rivalry etc, it’s just insane to me that grown men find satisfaction from making up rumours and acting ‘ITK’
