StudentOwl Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Just been chatting to my housemate about this, she reckons they've not spent that much money as only signed two players on a permanent currently, and that it's more about getting the enjoyment back as last season was such a dirge. Similar sounds to what was made here about the Gray tenure. She just wants to see some good football back, doesn't expect anything more than mid-table. Currently, she's not far wrong, but you can't help but feel that offering to pay an aging centre back nearly £60k a week for Championship football is going to upset the applecart good and proper if it goes through.

It seems to me that Wolves spending is more of a display of wealth and intent to the league and fans rather than actually putting the pieces of a 'promotion' jigsaw together. David Jones may not be a sexy signing but he sure will be more effective and value for money than some of Wolves signings. Totally agree. Someone at the club's got their head screwed on. I hadn't thought of Jones before he signed. The more I read the more I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa and Newcastle can afford not to get good value as they have had players to sell and parachute payments. It is very risky for Wolves to do this especially as they seem to spending big on players new to England and the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parachute payments do away with fairness along with FFP, they seem to be there just to create a closed shop but big departures also help teams to bring in big signings. Newcastle and Villa can buy the League but at the moment it doesn't look like it's doing them much good when they still look like losing to most of the League. It's one thing having lots of money but you still gotta be smart with it, Villa, Newcastle and Wolves look daft and desperate, whereas us; Huddersfield, QPR and Bristol City look to be doing it smartly. Wolves seem to be gambling big time, like the likes of Middlesboro and Derby, which is risky because it could pay off like it did for Middlesboro in the end or worst case scenario as we know well ourselves could be like Bolton and Blackburn and numerous others.

Having lived in the room below her for the last year, I can confirm she does do at least one turn. 1 minute ago, TheEnchanter said: Bet he thinks you're a twohat.

TheEnchanter Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 Leeds have just signed Bridcutt for an undisclosed fee. Probably under £1M. Nothing special for me, wasn't great for them on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it is, Jones is a bit more of an upgraded and flexible version so happy that we've got him instead, but if we announced we'd signed Bridcutt I would have been very happy knowing he'd get 15-20 starts this season in that type of squad role.
