HOW MUCH DID WE ACTUALLY SPEND THIS WINDOW?

Fri Aug 31, 2012 10:35 pm

So with the window closed anybody have an idea of what we actually spent? im thinking around 8-10 mil maybe?

which looking at the players we have signed thats good business. roughly the same as what spurs paid for a goal keeper.

could well be merlin,

i was having a look, but a couple were undisclosed fees so pure guessing or speculation there. 10 players though for either amount is great business.

To be honest if we don't go up this season and VT pulls the plug, we will probably have to sell the team Malky is building to cover all the loans we have taken out to assemble this team. If this happens, we will all have to thank Malky on the incredible job he has done building a team of good, promising young players with sell on value. Looking at the transfer fees spent on players this season, I only think we will possibly make a loss on Smith and Helguson because of their age if we had to sell them. I think all our other signings this season we could sell for either a similar amount or for a profit.

Filip Kiss - 500k
Etien Velikonka - 1.7m
Jordan Mutch 1.1m (rising to 2m)
Craig Bellamy - Free
Heidar Helguson - Free
Kim-Bo Kyung - 2.4m
Matt Connolly - 550k
Tommy Smith - 350k
Craig Noone - 1m
Nicky Maynard - 2.5m

That's about 10.2m probably a bit more with possible Mutch and Velikonja add-ons and Helguson might have had a tiny fee.

Bellamy also would have taken a huge chunk from the budget. I think he has spent well

Yeh obviously Bellamy's wages would take a bit out of the budget but remember the majority of the around 35k would of been made up from the 25k saved from Kenny Miller leaving ;)

The difference is Maynard could fire us to a £100mil promotion. But Mitchu will be aiming to keep you above relegation.

Our rewards are far greater imo.
