Championship Season 25-26

[sharpysharps86]

Ridiculous fee for Broadhead, especially with him only having a year left on his Ipswich contract.

Having said that, I'd love to have Wrexham's owners at Rovers.

I wish we were in a position where we were signing a proven, very good Championship winger but worrying that we overpaid.

[chaddyrovers]

why do Wrexham need a winger when they play 3-5-2 @roversfan99? 

Paying that sort of money for Broadhead is crazy money. As I said you could sign 3 championship players

Or a whole new squad from the Belgian second tier.

They'll finish above us this season after being in League One last year and were in non-league a few years ago. 

They're doing it right, we're doing it wrong. 

They won't get busted with FFP either which proves that clubs getting relatively small gates and no parachute money can spend big at this level without issues.

I didn't hear you complaining and saying we should have signed 3 players for the money we spent on Brereton. 

Wrexham have signed other players and will most likely add more before the deadline

Maybe they will change formation. I dont know. Either way, he is a very good player at this level.

You say they could sign 3 Championship players. They have already signed Lewis O'Brien, Ryan Hardie, Keiffer Moore, Conor Coady, Josh Windass etc. 

My point was merely that I wish our worry was whether in signing a proven Championship quality player, on top of loads more. That we may have overpaid.

As opposed to seeing us get rid of most of our players and replace with cheap randomers on small wages.

Wow. Adding Broadhead to that. It's genuinely upsetting that we're falling behind a team like Wrexham. I never thought I'd see it.

[Mattyblue]

Yeah, why are Wrexham bringing in all these players for decent money and wages? They not wanting to just be sustainable?

I suspect that Wrexham have this one season to get to the Premiership before FFP/PSR regulations bite & forcibly curb their spending next year.

I believe this will be the case regardless of how many millions they spend (or don't spend) this season, so they may as well go for it

Given the money that they have raked in over the past couple of years, Rovers could be doing the same.  It wont be long until the Wharton, Szmodics & Raya money "falls off" the accounts as it will be more than 3 years ago, and then they will be back to claiming that they want to spend, but their hands are tied & their lack of spending is due to FFP/PSR regs (again)

It’s called having “ ambition “. The limit of our  ambition is to stay exactly where we are.

I said I would spent that money on quality centre back and got someone like a Matt Smith to be Graham's back up.

why would they change formation when they always been 3 at the team under Parkinson and its done wonders for them. I would imagine it will be Broadhead, Moore and Windass

You know we don't pay big wages players like Windass, Moore and O'Brien.

We dont pay average wages, never mind big wages.

My point was that I would rather be worrying that the quality Championship attacker we just signed on top of a series of other proven Championship players was perhaps overpriced a tad, rather than whether a rag tag of random players from lesser leagues can capably replace the proven Championship players we are culling.

What are average wages at this level? 

You seem to have the answers

Above what we are offering hence why our players are happy to move to clubs who finished below us in the table.
