Looking back on Roland's reign he spent a heck of a lot on players.1

Our most recent player to be sold for over a million?

Money on transfer fees and wages was never the problem for us with RD in the early years. It was how it was spent. If he had employed people to run the football operation properly and achieved some sort of remote consistency with the coaching team, we could have been something. But what actually happened is he wasted millions on largely incapable players with the odd exception (e.g. JBG), and that helped to drive him to resentment and total apathy which then led to funding starvation across the club and brought the house down.Dazzler21 said:Looking back on Roland's reign he spent a heck of a lot on players.0 -
Oh Eddie Youds... said:Would this first 11 get promotion?
AMB
Egbo
Edun - Free from Blackburn
Hector
Tafazolli - Free from Wycombe
Fraser
Dobson
Brannagan - £1m from Oxford
Smith - Free from Cambridge
Stockton - Free from Morecambe
CBT
I like the Alfie May / Mo Eisa & Aaron Collins options but think Stockton would fit 433 better & is a low risk gamble being out of contract (that would allow us to spend any transfer budget we have on a quality CM).Not a chance anyone gets Brannagan for £1m. Beyond that he's also extremely highly paid for this level and is on well above our highest earners. I don't see him leaving Oxford for a slightly less average (but usually more average) team, we won't be paying him what he's on now and he's more likely to get a Championship move.But also, to answer the question, aside from the fact it's Charlton so all these players will be crippled within minutes meaning that the depth of teh squad will be important, you've got a RB who spent most of the season injured, two CBs in their 30s, Tafazolli's recent record being two consecutive relegations from the Championship, L1 Play-Off failure and then 8th place in L1. Not screaming Championship mainstay. Edun and Smith would be good but I'd much rather see CBT as a squad player and Stockton had 4 goals by April before a late flurry at the end after he'd already contributed to getting his team relegated to L2. So no, don't see that line-up as getting promotion.2 -
JBG on a free will always astound me. How on earth did we manage that one!10

Just seen yet another Wrexham link of a player they will never be signing. Nick Powell of Stoke reportedly currently earning just under 20K a week. Reynolds will have to make a load more bad movies before he is in that league.1

Granted he will probably take a drop whenever he goes but still well out of their league. Wes Burns of promoted Ipswich was also linked . It’s laughable.North Lower Neil said:

That went well . He without doubt is an idiot but not sure we can blame him for those signings. We apparently had been chasing Kirk etc for a while and Chucks was welcomed back as the 2nd coming by slot of people who chose to ignore the fact that he is made of glass.Oh Eddie Youds... said:

I think these signings are another example of if you dont have good people around you it's easy to be mugged off by the vultures0 - Sponsored links:

Just hope we have a squad capable of mid table L1 given we have lost JRS. Can't see us making many signings.1

Latest reports show Reynolds own personal net wealth is 280 million . Small fry compared with the big boys.LTKapal said:

Sure I read that a Wrexham game shown PPV in the US had over 90k subscribers. So with promotion if a game gets shown with say 100k subscribers @$10 each, that's $1m.0

Plange was meant to hapopen in January but, for some reason, didn't. Pretty highly rated from what I hear but, like Jesurun , an unknown quantity0

How much are the rest of the league 2 owners worth? And the higher they go the more people will want a slice of the action, jump on the bandwagon and pump funds into them. They'll have the biggest budget in League next season, easilyMintoHumbugs said:

Plange wasn't beinf played in his favoured role whilst in Belgium - I remember that much but not enough known about him at all sadly except he was very highly thought of when younger2
