Not wasting any time - 8 new players signed in July already. All seem to be on 2 year contracts - apart from Jamie Matt (1 year) Just an observation & not suggesting we should be doing likewise when the future is so uncertain.

Maybe the threat of a salary cap has something to do with it and they're getting in first !!!


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Fair play to Vince for continuing to put his money where his mouth is. Nobody on here would be complaining if it was us he threw his money at.

To me, it also shows why a salary cap won't work. He will still put in his money, they will be paying championship wages on gates of 2,000, while the rest of us will be forced to pay less on gates of three times theirs. Let the market decide. The issue is how to stop teams like Bury and Wigan from suffering at the hands of wreckless owners. A salary cap isn't the answer.

I thought I read somewhere that the transfer market wouldn't be open until July 27th!  Am I missing something, apart from the fact I am a doddering old bugga who sometimes doesn't know what day it is!

basing it on attendances like IH mentioned may work.

The transfer window is for all transfers, including those that involve buying players who are under contract somewhere.  If a player is out of contract, they can do what they want now.
