mwram1973 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Norwich and Southampton spent a fair bit... Southampton second biggest spenders this season, well third perhaps! Norwich spent very very little, Southampton have spent very little, 1.8 on sharp is not a lot of money, they bought lambert while in division 1. My point is i think at this moment in time we have as much chance of going up as Leicester, the table dosen't lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny Ram Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Fielding good buy; Brayford - bargain buy; Barker - excellent buy; Bailey - bargain buy; Ward - good buy as opposed to goodbye; Shacks - Good buy; B Davies - jury out or could be goodbye; Bryson - turning in to an excellent buy; Roberts - jury out; A few not quite made the grade though. Hendrick, Ball coming through the ranks and Bennett plus Witham are good future prospects. Things look promising for the future and Cloughs record in the transfer market has been fairly good, certainly with the money he has had available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CumbrianRam Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 You have also got to remeber that Southampton sold Oxlade-Chamberlain to Arsenal so thier next spend will be -£ millions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nookiebear Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 i agree promotion can happen with little money spent and a good manager but the example of southampton you give isnt great as they do have loads of cash and when adkins was with scunny with no money they didnt get promoted! also i reckon norwich are ok for cash too cos theyve spent quite a bit.. i reckon they still spent about 3 million when they went up..might be wrong tho just going from memory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Behind Derby ? 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ph34r' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':ph34r:' /> Norwich actually spent very little during there promotion season, Southampton though have just bought Sharp. Success can be bought without money, but it takes a very good manager to acheive this, of the clubs in the top 6, how many have not spent a couple of quid this season ? popular misconception with Norwich, who in actual fact spent a fair amount during their 2 promotions... nothing major, but they certainly didn't do it on a budget! Southampton have an expensive assembled side... 1.2 Schniederlin 1.2 Fonte 1.1 Lambert 750k Cork + 20k a week wages 700k Lee Bernard 1 Do Prado 1.8 Sharp 1.8 Fox 600k Hammond 300k Chaplow 1million Steve De Ridder.. probably a few more! there is certaintly a few million pound spread around..

Ambitious Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 In the next 2-3 years we'll be looking at Atkins, Morch and Severn in goals who will struggle to be getting first tea football then Galinski, Lelan, Witham, Richards, Hughes, Bennett and Thomas also to get in on the act, along with O'Brien, Hendrick, Ball, Naylor and Doyle who are still developing! big push in our youth team has gone along way, IMO. I didn't think we'd see results this quickly, personally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny Ram Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Also O'Brien will be able to contribute for us in the future. Fair spot of an obvious error. A talent that has made his mark this season, let's hope he remains injury free and makes a major contribution going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, they did but we haven't sold anyone for £10million but if we did, Id like to think we would be in the same boat although they do have powerfully rich owners on their side! How much for Bennett? 7-8million 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ph34r' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':ph34r:' /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideshowbob Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 Again? Well I havent been banned yet. And to be honest, why should I be banned? I dont swear or slag any forum member off, I just think that Nigel is absoulutely useless, Look at this season, we have had a lot of luck, take that luck away and we would be right back at the bottom end. I believe that Derby need investment to progress, but need a manager that could utilise the investment. This is not clough, he would just buy Burton Albion. Get Curbishley in and give him some money. In fact, get Curbishley in - without money he would organise and motivate this lot more than clough can. We arent currently very good, and mid table will be where we will finish - Thats after our best start in 106 years. Will it still be all rosy if we lose on Sunday?

No offense to Mason as I think he could become a very good player, but it depends how daft the buying club are. Would you spend £7-8 mil on a 15 year old? I wouldn't, even if I had cash to burn like Man City. The crazy asking prices for these teenagers is probably one factor in why the Prem teams have forced this EPPP plan through. So they can harvest the best young talent for little cost. Great for them, bad for us and our academy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
