oafcshuck Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 If this doesn't state ambition along with our other signings, I don't know what does. That statement in the Trust's notes must have literally meant a 100% bigger budget as the signings we've made so far and our targets would dictate that. When was the last time we paid £200,000 or more for a player? Remember Chris Killen or Allan Smart potentially being £250,000? Paid around £60,000 for Oz in recent times from off the top of my head?

Lukers1 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I’d be worried if we were splashing that money around. We haven’t got the income to pay that, potential Bury all over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

singe Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 This former agent claims a loan. No idea the source for us paying £200k, I'd be gobsmacked. When we are paying nothing for every other position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryBosch Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Very encouraging if it's true but, surely if we're able to pay such a fee for a player there are much better options out there who would be far less of a gamble? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlayItLivo Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) I'm sure we can afford 200k given how much we're skimping in other areas. Like paying the Club Store manager a measley 20k a year. https://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/2019/july/03072019-club-shop-staff-advert/ Edited July 3, 2019 by PlayItLivo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t imagine this shop will make much money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hummel may be paying for the refurb. then. Is this the shop in the JR stand, or the old one near the main entrance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
