I think it was said as too much money for a non league player.
But imagine if we had signed them .
They careers may never have been what they are now .
Cant remember a player we bought , that as gone on to bigger and better things ?

I will remind Warnock he saved us from relegation first season and gained promotion the 2nd season earning us £190mill.
Only Dalman says Warnock wasted with their full backing and I don’t ever believe what he says.

Warnock did waste money. He signed a lot of players that hardly played for us.
When that has happened with other managers, they have been slated by all fans. If future managers signed players and hardly played them, they will rightly be slated.
I don't know why Warnock is exempt from this criticism.
I'm no defender of Tan and Dalman or the board, but Warnock is not the Saint that many paint him out to be.

In that case, we ended up signing Bogle, Madine and Ward!

But there's nothing to say that he would have done well in the way we play football.
He went to Brentford, in a team that play possession-based football and had the ball at his feet regularly.
During his first year there, he wasn't a regular starter, and learned a lot from Neal Maupay. The summer after Watkins' first season, Maupay left to join Brighton in the Premier League and Watkins replaced him as a regular starter.
I strongly believe he benefitted from the way Brentford phased him into become a regular first-team player, and learning from a player who was scoring plenty of goals in the Championship.
Now at Villa, he is doing very well and good luck to him.
But I don't think he would be anywhere near as valuable as he is today if he had signed for us - for the reasons I have outlined above.
