I am fascinated by the buying the new shirt before holidays discussions. Good insight into what others may be doing whilst I am sorting absolutely everything else for the holiday 😉😂

They’ve just fitted oversized goals at PP so highly likely.

I was so pleased when he left. Hated the points squandered by his poor finishing. At the death he had one good game for us, but for me it's not enough. Nowhere near. I don't get the calls to bring failed players back so they can fail for us again. I'd hope we could find someone better.

Brazilian striker? 😜

Meh

I think you’re exactly right.
 
You have got far too much time on your hands.
 
 

Good of the EFL to wait until they’d bagged Knibbs and Wing before payday!!

Given what we experienced as a club I don’t want to see any other fans going through it. What this does highlight once more are the failings of the governing bodies. How have the EFL allowed them to sign players before the HMRC payment was paid? Surely waiting a few days to be sure all scheduled payments were met THEN allowing the signings would have been sensible? 

And assuming wiki is right Didzy scored 9 and 2 in his last 2 seasons before coming to us and CKR 5 and 1 in his two seasons before becoming a Ram and cult hero. Your point is.....?? 
 

Have you seen the business plan? Do you know of ongoing commitments taken on by Mr Clowes when he saved the club eg Bielik payments still falling  due even though he has gone? When you say "sounds like clowes does't want to spend" I am not sure exactly what you mean - do you mean he is trying to run the club sustainably matched to our income rather than getting us in debt or risking even more of his business/family's money? If so good that is what we need after nearly being obliterated by Mel. If fans dont accept that they are likely going to be unhappy going forward all of the time unless they have funds they are willing to put into the club.

Perhaps “entitled” was strong on my part.
I’ve quoted the above points from your post from this morning, you say you’re asking if what he said in his interview was the truth or not. Earlier today I provided the quote from the interview in which Clowes stated he had set Paul Warne a budget that he (Clowes) believes is a good budget to get promotion from this league, he also added a caveat that there are no guarantees. So what potential mis-truth are you suggesting he’s said? I don’t get it. There’s nothing in what he said that’s potentially a lie, one part of it is a statement (he’s set a budget) the other part is his opinion (he thinks it’s a budget for promotion). He didn’t say “the budget is x amount” and now we’ve found out it’s not that. He didn’t say “we’ll spend hundreds of thousands on fees”. He didn’t say “we’ll spend any money raised from player sales in new transfer fees”.
Warne has in subsequent interviews explained that there is room left in the budget to sign players, and he thinks he’ll get better value by using the room left in the budget on wages rather than transfer fees. 
It is disappointing that we’re not signing players for fees, I’d love it if we’d taken a punt on Lee Bonis even though I haven’t seen him play, just that idea of buying a rough diamond and potentially turning a profit on him would be great…but the situation we’re still in as a club appears to be one of sensible restraint, either through choice or due to the business plan.
From what’s been said it seems clear to me  there is an allocated pot of money that is to be used to strengthen the squad, that pot can likely be used for transfer fees, agent fees, signing on fees, and wages. Warne and Pearce and the recruitment bloke have to work out how to get the best value from the pot of money and they’re choosing what they think is best. 
The bit I interpreted as you saying fans are entitled to know is where you said it would be nice for them to tell us what the money is being spent on. We’ll get info from supporters group forums, the accounts will show the figures when they’re released, Warne has seemingly been open and transparent in his recent interviews about the budgets…we get to know a fair bit I think. What we don’t know is how much we’ve paid out in wages to secure some of the new players, perhaps we’ve offered them good terms to secure them?
At the end of the day it’s your opinion and you’re entitled to it, I personally didn’t agree with your questioning the honesty of Clowes based on that interview as I don’t see where the lie is so tried to express that.

Sad day. Wish he could have stayed and gone up there with us but nothing is guaranteed and think the extra year he gave us was probably to the detriment of his development. But totally admire his loyalty,commitment and attitude. 
Feel disappointed for him that it wasnt a bigger move but hope he flourishes and makes the next step up soon.
Wishing nothing but the best to him.
