Twaddle! Disclosing the fee lets all and sundry know how much money we have to spend. Would you show your hand to the other players in a poker game?

The money we recieve and the money we have to spend are 2 different things though.

Double twaddle you really think other clubs won’t have a idea? On those grounds we must have really fleeced Leeds seeing as we know they’re selling someone to spurs for £10 million.

I think it's pretty obvious to everyone how much money we have to spend.

Chip and a chair and youve got a chance .

BTW Clarkes gone to Spurs for a undisclosed fee so i guess no one at all has any idea Leeds got a decent wedge for him.

I know it only counts as part of the budget but don't the fans deserve to know where their money is being spent?

Thing with any fee is, even if you know what the fee is, you don't know how it's structured.
It depends what is the core fee, over how long, what is appearance related, England caps related, so it is really unknown.
The minimum (up front) fee and the maximum (with international appearances) and sell ons would tend to be miles apart.

McCarron had his first run out yesterday. Came on for last half hour, as part of 11 changes.
Must admit to being pleasantly surprised to him. Keen to take his man on, and was lively and very positive once he settled in.
He will probably play again tonight, as he other half of the first team play.

Your lad txt me Last night to tell me he got a run out, he said he looked alright. Honestly CW, i really do think he's going places. I've watched him since he was about 12ish. Good player with plenty of confidence. Good bit of business imo by us.

Yeah, looked promising. Great to have that level of confidence and not to be fazed by the step up.
Still can't get my head round why he wasn't playing every week for Carlisle, albeit based on 30 mins of action. Does look about 12 mind, but that's probably me!
The game is free on LUTV again (comments awaited about curtains and back gardens etc) if anyone wants to see him have a run out, assuming its the same as yesterday with the kids on for the second half.
