I can remember people going ballistic because we hadn't replaced Jones in about 2 days. Then the board got the right man. No one's complaining about that now.

Who has said that money isn't available? MM has said he is looking.
Maybe he doesn't see value so would rather wait til jan?

If its £100k or 1m IMO it irrelevent, it MUST be kept to and no more should be spent.
If I was Tan I would have sold everyone the first season and played on a minimum budget until we are debt free.
Running at a loss that us unsustainable is not the right way. Budget, stick to it...MM knew his budget when he took over.

So why pay Kenny Miller £25k a week if we are on a minimum budget![]()
Keep Hudson on £15k a week and buy Turner £700,00 + when we could save money on a young prem' league player![]()

Agree with this one, Annis![]()
My only confusion is whether the Board are (or are not) backing Malky in the loan market?? We all know (and rightly so IMO) that they keep things close to their chests, so it may just be that there IS something in the pipeline
Additionally, Malky seems to be 'fussy' about the type of player/character he brings in to the squad and that is to be commended after some of the players latterly brought in by Dave Jones (who, I admit, I backed fully whilst he was here)
Hopefully, things will move on pretty quickly and we'll have good news by the end of the international break. Either way, it will be a good indicator of the current Board's ambition for this season (and maybe beyond)
Let's hope, as the old song goes, that silence is golden, eh??![]()

Unlike transfers where the fee can be paid over a number of years club nowadays expect the loan fee paid upfront.
We all know the Malaysians like to negotiate payments over a period of time rather than cash upfront today. If they believed in paying upfront they would allow MM to payoff some of the deadwood left from DJ squad, Gypes and Parkin are good examples. Parkin is on 40% more than Coventry were prepared to pay and the player insisted Cardiff pay the difference, but that would mean cash upfront so the player is still with us at £9k a week. Hopefully Doncaster will keep him for the rest of the season but if they don't MM will have to work with one hand tied behind his back.
Many of those who now insist that MM operate within the budget were the same people who supported DJ with all the keep him to the end of the season. Well last season that policy cost us millions, Parkin, Keinan, Koumas, Bywater, Brown, Naylor the list is endless but I can't remember many people saying DJ had to operate within the budget.
Thankfully that idiot is gone and the board have now appointed MM as their man to take the club forward so they should back him today, with cash, because thats what this is all about for me. Forget budgets as I'm sure money is available within MM budget what isn't there is the cash to pay the loans fees.
Crowds are already down 900 per match on average on last season when we were told signing CB made good business sense because of commercial benefits like shirt sales. The club paid CB more per week than any player in the history of our club and we were all delighted by that, but what did that do for the budget. Why was it OK for DJ to have that support but MM not? I don't get it and in my opinion the board need to find the cash to pay the loan fees.
Cash is the key to this and our board need to find some.

Surely the work ethic shown so far is enough for a top half finish, and malky will get loanees, but only the ones that suits both parties. We will average upwards of 20k this season, this club is going places.
