I said at the time, I could not believe how we sold him so cheap, never mind the goals , it’s his attitude and battling displays which won me over.

They will prob be relegated or down near the bottom all season long as they had a minus 12pt start so Paterson’s is playing in a a struggling team and doing well![]()

Sold way to cheap that’s my point.

There's no money around outside of the premier league. Because of coronavirus the market is very depressed. It seems most teams in our league went for loans and free transfers as that is all they could afford. We didn't get what Paterson or Etheridge was worth but got two big salaries off the wage bill, for players who would hardly feature this season.

I don't get this about prices for players,it's not rocket science,football is going through its toughest time in my living memory,just like any other"business" we either break the bank hoping for promotion,or we cut our cloth accordingly, and live to fight another day, for me it's a no brainer, the latter.
Nobody in this division has spent big to bring new players in,which goes to show how perilously close to being in the shit most clubs must be in,if we lose roughly 1/2 million for each home game without fans attending, that's a 23m hole to be filled somehow.do I think he was sold a bit too cheap? Yes,but can understand he would be a squad player at best this year,and would have cost us about a mill on wages,so he had to go.![]()

That would actually be a £11.5m hole i.e. 23/2![]()
Gate receipts and match day income is not as much as we might think. The accounts show that in 2017 (when we were in the Championship) match day income was only £3,529,000 and in 2018 (the promotion season) it was £4,969,000.
That said take £3/5m out of a mid sized business and it will definitely make a huge impact.
As for Paterson he was sold for his market value at the time of sale. Yes at one point he was worth more but due to circumstances beyond the clubs control his market value fell.
