I've not seen any detail on what a "moderate fee" actually means but, at L1 level, I'd guess that to be £500K at the most. We won't be spending a "significant amount of money" on anybody in this or the next window. We can't. I'd not be surprised if, come August 5th, Collo is still our only senior striker and I'd expect to see young Brown either up top alongside him or, if we play Collo as a lone striker, on the bench. Well that's just semantics. I would personally consider 500k to be a significant fee, especially considering the league we're in and how the majority of deals going on around us are either frees or loans. I would not be surprised with that either, although I suspect Washington will come in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that relative to the fees clubs like Burton and Fleetwood etc can pay on their 3k to 4K gates? Relative to the average for L1? Relative to what Derby can afford. As I've posted in other threads on here, if I've understood last season's finances correctly, we have north of £6M in the bank. For us, paying £1.5M for Clarke-Harris could well be seen as moderate but it's around 30% of the entire budget of the 2 teams I mentioned earlier. What is "moderate". As stated in my my post to which you replied, we can only guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammysees Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Is he a cross between a Labrador a Dalmatian and a Poodle? I hope he doesn't get caught short near a goal post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Do we think FL might be a target again in January? Ipswich are flying and he’s not a regular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d think he’d be an obvious loan target if nothing else. Still, personally, wouldn’t really want much on a permanent given his age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you could argue if Collins goes in the summer then it wouldn’t be so bad. But still, you’d ideally want your week-in week-out striker to be more prime age.

Dean (hick) Saunders Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 (edited) I would be fine with a loan if it can be done. He has played in half their games though, so think they would not want to weaken the squad.

That could mean looking to replace Ladapo with a better quality striker who will be able to perform in the premier league.
