Guest wilyfox Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Lee Erwin? http://hereisthecity.com/en-gb/2015/05/13/report-leeds-send-scouts-to-watch-celtic-linked-lee-erwin-after/? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groundhopping Owl Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Leo Fortune West Just been informed Rodolph Austin is a transfer target of Steve Evans #rufc #Millers That would be a good signing for them. Big summer for toytown, they'll have to get in some players on permanent deals and they better do it quick or they'll be relegation fodder, the teams coming up from league one 1 aren't pushovers and with Wigan, Blackpool and Wigan gone we got rid of some of the dross that's been hanging on for a few years. Personally I'd still take Austin, yes we'd be stacked in midfield but Semedo, Hutchinson and Lee all tend to have a few extended spells on the sideline between them every season, plus Austin is bloody huge, powerful and has a rocket shot on him. Lee Erwin? http://hereisthecity.com/en-gb/2015/05/13/report-leeds-send-scouts-to-watch-celtic-linked-lee-erwin-after/? Interesting but you have to take HITC with a pinch of salt, there's been some utter gonads posted on there before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themaskedowl Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 No worries. Last I'd heard he'd formed a great partnership with Ibrahima Bakayoko at Southampton, and was on the fringes of the national side but player manager Efe Sodje didn't fancy him. rrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyyytttttttttttt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxondale Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I put this in the other thread but I'll chuck it in here as well: On a serious note I heard something yesterday that may reel in people's expectations. The wage bill is "only" being increased by £2million on this seasons. To put it into perspective, that's still less than half what the promoted clubs spent this season. I think some people need to realise we aren't going to be throwing stupid money around. So the rumours of Ward and JET are probably the type of singing we should be expecting to be honest.

That puts some perspective on it yes. We've let a lot go which will have freed up some wages. If that's the case, then perhaps a few more will go before next season starts. ??? Just back of the envelope calcs but, I would think 8 in is still about right. (11 out, 8 in of better quality and on higher wages). Time will reveal all.

But after reading JV's post yesterday I did some digging. And the person who told me this has given me little bits of info before that turned out spot on. As you say time will tell but maybe we ought to lower our sights in the mean time . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s29wfc Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 It makes me laugh when people other than our owner and our new committee seem to know our budget for the coming season. DC has said openly that he'll spend whatever it takes to get us to tue prem, sorry guys but I think I'll stick to believing the quote from him rather than listen to rumours.

As you say time will tell but maybe we ought to lower our sights in the mean time . If that's what it is, then we'll have to deal with it. The signings of Westwood and Lees showed what you can do without paying a big fee, if you have a fairly decent wage budget. A couple of areas where we might be disappointed though, are up front, where real quality doesn't come cheap, and if we were hoping to cherry pick some young talent from the lower leagues. Both of those usually cost big money. Edited May 14, 2015 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
