He did owe us one considering it was the same guy from Bolton Away(penalty for foul outside the box and later rescinded red car for Wildsmith) and Plymouth last season (gave penalty and apologised to players on pitch as knew got it wrong).
Thing is though it is ridiculous as we have money in the budget but it just might be in the wrong pot. Two possible scenarios are that we want to reallocate some of money in the Transfer Fee pot to the Wages pot or we want to pay a chunk of the wages as a signing on bonus so it comes from the Transfer pot. There should be some headroom become available due to insurers paying majority of John-Jules wages and potentially some of Collins's now too.
I'm not fooled either, money from the sale of Max Bird has given us enough headroom in the budget to give him the pay rise he probably deserves. Could think of many worse ways to spend part of the fee.

With such optimism I have one question, are you the guy that sits behind me whingeing all game?
